I hope you remember that, back in April, I told you about \u201cKino-Take Battle\u201d: the battle between \u2018Kinoko no Yama\u2019 devotees and \u2018Takenoko no Sato\u2019 fanatics.

I couldn\u2019t resist finding out what was happening to their referendum campaign.<\/p>\n

Despite the general (well, mostly mine) predication that it would be neck-and-neck, shock horror for the \u2018Kinoko no Yama\u2019 devotees, they are losing big time! The final day is now so close, they are desperately trying to take the offensive in the last few weeks.<\/p>\n

They introduced the new celebrity supporter who has broadcast the new manifestos on YouTube. They are also encouraging \u2018Takenoko no Sato\u2019 fans to change their minds by bribing them. If you follow Kinoko no Yama\u2019s Twitter account and re-tweet with \u2018#I have changed my mind and now support Kinoko campaign\u2019, you could win some nice stuff; Wagyu beef (yes, please!), mushroom-shaped jewelleries (who wants that?), etc.

It\u2019s a really critical time for \u2018Kinoko no Yama\u2019 supporters. I will reveal the final result here on the Zoom Japan website. Watch this space\u2026<\/p>\n
