presentation
A ôendan is a team of supporters. This description comes from the word ôen, which means "encouragement", and which is characterized by a true sharing of feelings.
The team of supporters Aozora Ôendan comes all the way from Miyagi, in the Northeastern region. Formed by the elder ôendan of various towns from the Northeastern region, this team is very respectful of its traditions, their keywords being respect and politeness. (応援団)
This year, they come to Japan Expo to spread their inexhaustible source of energy and to encourage you. This said, you can expect a ôendan under the sign of love and justice!
“I think that any person encouraged by another can display a tremendous energy. This support can be a simple “Gambatte! – Courage!” coming from a person who is dear to our heart. A support from your family, your friends, from your boyfriend or your girlfriend.
I feel that all of these encouragements, which are heartfelt sharings, turn our world brighter and stronger.
We, as a team of supporters whose members are active persons, are not interested on whoever wins or loses against whoever else.
If you feel you want to defeat yourself, even though we can’t replace your family, we encourage you from the bottom of our hearts.
On the occasion of a declaration of love, or for a wedding.
Big life events, when people completely surrender and give their best, are rare.
If you want to, we will be with you every step of the way. So, feel free to reach to us.”
Aozora Ôendan, Leader Ryo Taira
