Tug-of-war sideways pulled
Young people are raising the spirit in the public hall until the tug-of-war starts.
Children come to the public hall to call young people.
Young people and children stand placing the rope and face to face.
And, they pull the rope against each other.
When the song of "Atago - mairi" ends, people pull the rope.
When we see it on, the dragon seems to be moving.
When they end the tug-of-war, people take the sumo wrestling.
