Children reenact the daimyo's procession through the town. Their childish innocence is very popular. The Yatsushiro Myoken festival was established around 1691 and these performances in Ogawa must have been modeled after it. The dance is commonly called "tokosei" because participants call this out. It is led by a young person from the Tera-machi district of Ogawa called "yakko-cho," who is accompanied by about 20 first through sixth graders from Ogawa Elementary School and several nursery school children in the reenactment of the feudal procession. The origin of the festival is not known, but it was mentioned in a document in 1794, along with the lion dance.
