Comment from Senmu Miyawaki, representative of the Wonder Festival Executive Committee
The Wonder Festival (hereinafter referred to as "WF") 2023 [Winter] is approaching, and after being postponed, cancelled, and held online since WF2020 [Autumn], the real event was resumed from WF2022 [Winter], and we also held the real event in WF2022 [Summer].
However, the number of amateur dealers and general participants has not fully returned, and we are still in a difficult situation, but the management and staff will work together to come up with measures to make more people aware of and visit Wanfest.
In recent years, the figure and plastic model industry has seen an increase in demand for so-called "nest eggs," and each event is seeking to shift to online, so that more and more events can be enjoyed from the comfort of one's home. For me, the real events that have been revived since WF2022 [Winter], namely, where I can see with my own eyes what has actually been created, meet the artists and communicate directly with them, and feel the unique atmosphere of the event, have made me rediscover the charm of WF, which only real events can offer. I have been able to experience the charm of WF again, which is only possible at a real event. I have reaffirmed my determination to continue this event that cannot be replaced by any other, and that it must be continued.
We will continue to work to provide a meaningful venue for everyone as a festival of manufacturing and modeling, and we would appreciate your support and cooperation in this endeavor.
（We appreciate your support and cooperation.)
