This year saw the biggest contest with 15 participants across the two competitions. 

The Short Contest had presentations of up to 300 words. The nine participants had an interesting variety of topics.

The Long Contest had presentations of up to 600 words.  The six participants were animated and connected with the audience.

The audience had much more fun as it has been a long time since we had an event together.

The winners received a share of the ¥45,000 prize money.  Their hard work paid off.

Congratulations to the Short Contest winner, Mio Shimodo (Level 2A, right), and the Long Contest winner, Ikki Kumekawa (Level 5A, left).
