October 3, 2021: Nakake-Cho(In front of Pachinko Salon)
On the first Sunday after the stronger measures to prevent the spred of the coronavirus were finished, the number of people passing through the street was clearly more than September 4 (during the state of emergency). An Izakaya bar next to the recording point opened for day-time drinkers, and they played promotion announcement repeatedly in front of their bar. Comparing the number of passersby, the number of people went in and out two Pachinko Salons around the recording point was little.

This soundscape was recorded at in front of the Mihara-Do in the second block of the central street from the station. The number of people passing through the street around here was clearly more than September 4, too. Maybe because of the time of the recording, many people went in and out McDonald's and Starbuck coffee, but few Gyudon (beef bowl) restaurant.



October 3, 2021: In front of Fujisaki Department store
This soundscape was recorded in front of AEON. The number of people passing through the street around here was clearly more than September 4, too. The CD shop next to the recording point broadcasted a promotion video of a CD repeatedly as usual weekend, but the volume was lower than usual weekend for a change: one of the reasons may be the genre of the music.



October 3, 2021: In front of Fujisaki Department store
The soundscape around Fujisaki was a little bit calmer than other recording points in this arcade, maybe because main age-group around here is older, as usual. Still, the number of people passing through the street around here was clearly more than September 4, too.
