Due to the record heavy rain this time, five people are missing in Oita prefecture. Searches by police and fire departments continued on the 11th, and people concerned prayed for their safety.

Of these, in Yufu City, a car was swept into the river on the 8th of this month, and 3 of the 4 passengers on the road are missing.

The search was carried out as close as possible to the river that was flooded by rain from the 10th, and police officers were visually looking for clues on the embankment.

As the search continues for a long time, people concerned with the missing person are praying for their safety. Kenta Watanabe (28), who runs a well-established ryokan at Yuhira Onsen in Yufu City, whose whereabouts are unknown, created a panel of hot spring town mascot characters to be installed at a tourist information center to attract young generations.

The president of the Yuhei Onsen Ryokan Association said, "I'm a serious person with little humor and working silently, and I can't think of trying to advertise Yuhira Onsen nationwide using my favorite anime. It's a very valuable presence for me to come up with an idea. I want you to come back safely."
