In the video message, Doyasu commented, "I think a new challenge will begin in April in a new environment. Don't be afraid, believe in your power, and stand up. I'm still waiting for new challenges So let's do our best each other. "
When the video message of Doyasu was displayed on the screen of the venue, the children listened seriously, showing surprised expressions.
The boy said, "I was really impressed. I stayed in my heart with good words. I want to work hard to make my dream come true in the next stage of junior high school."
The girl child also mentioned that the Tokyo Olympics had been postponed, "Athletes do not lose their motivation. I want to continue whatever I like regardless of the surrounding environment." I was stimulated.
