Yosakoi Festival Quest and Bird Rattle Collection Mission

A new 11 day Quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  The Collection Mission gives the Obento Stove House Recipe as a reward.

Tips:  I recommend that players set the Monkey Boost to decrease OP as many Batch Production tasks are included.  If you have the Fishing College/Fishery, do not cast a net as a rod will be required instead.  In fact, there are two tasks that require the use of a fishing rod.

The Obento Recipe is required for Yosakoi Festival 8.

Note from Freyashawk:  This site is freely available to any one who wishes to access it and I always publish a link in my Facebook groups.  It makes me rather unhappy to know that there are other Facebook groups that rather shamelessly copy my lists or posts to their groups without giving me credit.  This is not honourable behaviour.  ANY group is welcome to post a link to my site.

I do appreciate any votes you can give to HM. Freyashawk if you find this site useful to you.

Other new Options on Friday 10 August

The second material for the Farm Pool Base now is available randomly from Chests that your Pets open on the paths.

I try to work hard to make the game more enjoyable for players.  There is no profit involved but it does make me happy to hear from players that the site continues to be helpful to them.  If you feel so inclined, please do vote for HM. Freyashawk in the Farm Beauty Contests.  It is becoming increasingly difficult to rank in the Contest and I feel it is good always because it serves to promote this site in a way.  Many thanks!  If you send a message to familyfarmseaside.blogspot.com on Facebook, I am happy to answer any game questions as well as giving my Farm I.D.

Daruma Doll
xxxxxxxxxxx

The Daruma Doll is a goal-oriented symbol.  When you obtain one, paint in one eye with a specific wish or goal in mind.  When the goal is achieved, you paint the other eye onto the doll.  The Daruma doll is based on a real individual.

His name was Bodhidharma, known as Daruma-Daishi in Japan, a monk who lived in the 5th-6th century. It is believed by many that he introduced Zen Buddhism to China, Shaolin Kung fu, a type of meditation called Zazen, and finally, green tea.


Yosakoi Festival
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The actual Yosakoi Festival of Kochi is not an ancient one as it was started about 60 years ago.  It is, however, based on very ancient traditions that can be found everywhere in the world.  The festival begins with a fireworks display.  Central to it are the competitive dance teams that use wooden clappers or 'naruko' while they dance.

Both fireworks and the use of clappers or rattles are ancient devices that were believed to chase away evil spirits.  Drums likewise are believed to have similar power.
