There are two prince foxes, and one is the story that there is a fox in Rakugo that transforms into a prince fox at Oji Inari Shrine. The other is the theme of this article, the fox procession of Prince Omisoka. There is a tradition that the fox fox fire gathers from 33 places around the country to make pilgrimages to princes, and paintings depicting the scene have been handed down for a long time.
ついに念願の王子の狐メイクをしました!
Finally I made the long-awaited Prince’s fox makeup!
“The OUJI’s Fox” by the Prince of Kita Ward. I heard about it from a grandfather of a friend in Hatchan’s kindergarten. “You don’t know the Prince’s fox? TV will come! Foreigners will come! If you don’t go, it’s a loss!” I’m originally aspiring to be a stage costume designer and I like flashy. Also, I love the musical “Cats”, so I’m happy that I can make cats (⇒ Fox was) with a prince! I thought so and went immediately. The place of makeup is in front of the prince’s supermarket “Horibun (2-13-6 Oji, Kita-ku, Tokyo)”.
When I arrived at 3:00 pm on December 31, there were already 30 people waiting for makeup. Most people who wear makeup are children. When I asked Hacchan, “Do you want to do makeup?” When I heard it again, I was told “No”, so I can’t help it. Do you want only Mom! I thought (laughs) and lined up in the makeup procession.
12月なので、待ち時間は結構寒いです Since it’s December, the waiting time is quite cold
ついにメイク開始!結構しっかりやってくれますよ♡
Finally make up! It does quite well♡
ついに私の順番が来ましたよ♡はっちゃんは自分がやるんじゃないのに、妙にテンション高くなっています。
Finally my turn has arrived♡ Hatchan is not doing it himself, but the tension is strangely high.
まず、ピンで前髪をあげます First, use a pin to raise your bangsだんだん白くなっていきました It became whiter白メイク、完成しましたよ!White makeup is complete!今どうなってるんだ~!できました!大満足!ルンルン! Done! Great satisfaction! Run Run!
The prince’s fox make-up is done in the daytime, and since the production is at midnight, the make-up must be kept until then. I didn’t have the nerve to be embarrassed, so I was nervous when I got on the train, but unexpectedly I couldn’t really see it. (⇒ I’m just trying not to match my eyes!)
And the prince’s fox procession of the prince of Inari Shrine, which is the heart of it, it was very cold that day. I thought, “Is it going to be 4 years old on such a cold day? I can’t do it!” (actually, I just got tired of it ;)) I definitely want to participate next time!
