In addition, Frontier Works hosted a social media follow campaign and a survey campaign, giving visitors the chance to receive a Tanuki to Kitsune fortune slip and a special giveaway based on their fortune.

One of the most popular attractions was the fluffy fox tail photo spot, where visitors could actually touch and enjoy the soft, plush tail. Its irresistibly fluffy texture made it a favorite among guests of all ages.
