CR Maruishi Dosojin, also known as "Maruishi-Gami," are spherical stone monuments of unknown origin. It is said that hundreds of them are scattered throughout Yamanashi Prefecture. They are often placed in between houses, on sides of streets, and on shrine grounds. They take various shapes and sizes. According to one theory, they are asynchronous objects that share an origin with the spherical stones of Costa Rica. Another theory suggests that they were used as save points by the feudal warlord Shingen Takeda. Can you not slide in made-up stories? Find the roundest Dosojin stone, and win a trip to Costa Rica! Use our smartphone app to scan the Maruishi Dosojin scattered throughout Yamanashi Prefecture to measure how round they are. The participant who finds the roundest Maruishi stone will win a five-night, six-day vacation package for two to Costa Rica! That's the gist of the event. So this is what your next manga story will be based on. That's right. So you're gonna look for spherical stones in Yamanashi to win a trip to see more of them overseas? Yamanashi is the first place I've seen these. What exactly are Maruishi Dosojin? That's a great question. Maybe it's because I'm from here, but they've always flown under my radar. True that. The history teacher said these stones protect the city by warding off evil. They say if you collect a hundred spherical stones, your wish will come true. Grant my wish! You'd need heavy machinery to gather them up. So I tried to find some information on the Internet to get a head start. I can find pictures, but there's nothing online about their exact locations. Does anyone have any idea where one might be? I may or may not have seen one by my house… I feel like I've seen them around town, but I can't quite place my finger on where it was. I've seen them around the riverbank front and such. They're also commonly placed near parks and street entrances. You sure you aren't thinking of bollards? I know, what if we stroll around and see if we can spot any? But it's so hot outside. How do you plan on participating in the event then? Well, I was hoping to drive up to them and scan them in. Then how about a virtual walk on Goolugoolu Maps? What a smart idea. That way, we can divide and conquer. And we can do it right from the comfort of an air-conditioned room. A virtual walk to find the Maruishi Dosojin stones. I love it. Let the hunt begin! -Yeah! -Yeah. You weren't joking. Their exact locations can't be found online. Right? I found one, but this one's not really round. Looks like any old rock to me. Hey! I found one too! But it's deep in a narrow alley, so I can't get to it. Classic Goolugoolu Maps problem. Look, Ms. Haru. There are two at this Shinto shrine. Oh, really? Ms. Haru, I found another one on the Fuefuki Museum grounds. Wow! Who could have guessed? Ms. Haru, I got one too! This one's very round! You don't say. This one seems pretty round. Wait. Looks like I was mistaken. A cruel optical illusion! Sacchan, I found one at another shrine. They tend to be placed near shrines. Check this out, Ms. Haru. I found tons alongside Yamanote Street. Oh, really? On this street, the monuments are placed every so often. I'm the only one who hasn't contributed! I wonder if there are patterns to their placement? Ms. Haru! I got one for you! Sorry, that's not quite right. Have you gotten chunkier? Ms. Haru, got any cucumber? Cucumber? There might be one in the fridge. Thanks. What will you do with it? You know how cats are supposedly afraid of them? I want to see what Taishou will do when he sees one. Hello. That's not nice. Don't be a bully. Hi. You should've tried harder, Kiriyama. If it's cold noodles, I can handle even a mega-size. See what happens when you're a bully? I know where one is! What? I saw it during the Full Course Photo Rally! It was right by Restaurant Bonchi! It was a Maruishi Dosojin! Restaurant… Bonchi? See? Exactly as I said! Wow! This is, without a doubt, a round Maruishi Dosojin! An, you've finally done it. What's the matter, you two? It's just, I was reminded of the cold noodles… Wow. -Ms. Haru. -Yes? When I scan the stones in the app, a number pops up. So the event organizers must have scanned 700 locations. That makes sense. Wouldn't you have a better story for your manga if you interview the event organizers instead? That's a great point. Some are plain rocks, some are spheres, and others are stacked. Were there even rules for how these were made? I hear you. Not to mention, they seem to be placed at random. The more I look, the stranger it appears. It's so round, I want to pull pranks with it. That's a bit sacrilegious. You in a cowboy movie? The Maruishi Dosojin placed alongside the road are nice because we can capture them without leaving my car. Though it feels a bit like cheating. Sacchan, where is the Maruishi Dosojin around here? We'll circle to the back of the building. There's supposed to be one there. I'm getting burned alive! Ms. Haru, time to get moving. Wow, this one is over 95 percent round! Of course, they saved the best one for the museum. Won't you please get me a drink? What are we to do with you? Just one more, and we're done. It's located atop Mount Atago. The Maruishi Dosojin is down this way. Mosquitos! Mosquitos! We made it. I'm definitely going somewhere cool for my next story. Ninety-eight percent? It's a miracle in the final stretch! It was worth pushing through the punishing heat and swarms of mosquitos! The engraving says "purifying stone," not "Dosojin." What is a "purifying stone"? A stone which purifies, apparently. "Place your hand on the stone to offer a prayer of purification." Perhaps it will purge this disappointment. It burns! Haru, it must have been a bummer. It's fine. It turned out to be great manga material. While we're on the topic of Maruishi Dosojin, have you checked out the one behind the house? Was there one back there? It's always been there. She's right. How did I miss it? It's pretty round. I don't think it'll work, but who knows, what's the harm in scanning it? You seriously found a Maruishi Dosojin that's 99% round and came in second? Isn't it amazing? The prize arrived just a moment ago. Wow. It's frigging huge! What's inside? I don't know either. I wanted to wait until everyone got here. From its size, it could be a whole year's supply of snacks. Or maybe cup noodles. Imagine the possibilities. Okay, time for the grand reveal. I'm craving curry with rice. -My father loves curry so much… -Cumin, cardamom, coriander! …that every Saturday was designated "Curry Day" when I was growing up. You see this, Haruno? Today is Curry Day! Maybe that's why, once a month, What's your favorite spice? Mine is… I get an irresistible urge to eat curry, which I call "Curry Day." I'm definitely going to go eat chicken curry after I wrap up this draft! Man, occasional curry cravings are totally a thing. Right? When that spicy aroma comes drifting my way… It's irresistible. I like to try local cuisine on my motorcycle tours. One time, I was riding down a highway when I suddenly caught a whiff of curry… Scent of spice… Before I knew it, I had ordered a plate of Eggplant Curry at Kokonara Curry! That's very relatable. You're not with Satsuki and Sakurako today? They're at their part-time job. Ms. Haru, tell me about this curry shop we're going to. It's a chicken curry specialty restaurant. Sounds scrumptious! Every now and then, I get a strong craving for their curry. It's nothing fancy, but their curry's spices pack a punch. Pouring just a dash of thickened Worcestershire sauce brings out the flavor even more. I can't get it out of my head! I told myself I'm grabbing some as soon as the drafts are done. I've been craving curry for the past three days! It's totally closed. They're on holiday starting today. Talk about bad timing. Well, what do you want to do now? My chicken curry. -Chicken curry. Chicken curry. -Oh, hang on. Want to just go to Kokonara? There's one close by. But that's like admitting defeat. Ms. Haru, is there a different curry restaurant you'd like to eat at? A different curry restaurant. Look, Mom, why is that lady sitting on the ground? It's rude to point. Why is it rude to point? Mom, why is… I do know another place! -So slow! -So slow! This Indian curry restaurant serves a delicious curry and naan combo at a steal. Curry with naan? But I'm totally in the mood for curry with rice. It's all we've been talking about. Same here. Really? But it's delectable. Crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. You pull the cheese naan apart and dip it in rich, butter chicken curry. Gulp. Sold! I'm in the mood for curry with naan! Let's go grab this Indian curry! Yeah! What? This can't be real! Ms. Haru? Get a hold of yourself! Oh no… She went without chicken curry for too long. -She's got chicken withdrawal! -That's not a real thing! Ms. Shimada? Hello? Hello, this is Shimada. How is the progress on the promotional art due EOD today? Pardon? I sent in all my tasks for today already. I've yet to receive the artwork for the web edition. I forgot a deadline! You just can't catch a break today, can you? Seriously. Since you have a deadline, what if you go home and work on it? No! I can't focus until I kick this curry craving out of my system! Here, have some curry-flavor Hineri-age. So please, calm down. I've come too far to settle for just curry flavor. -Okay, fine. Just a sniff then. -What? Wait, hey. Ms. Haru? Ms. Haru! Goodness. There's never a dull moment when I'm with you, Haruno. If your favorite restaurants are closed, we'll just find somewhere new to try. We're gonna get you your curry. Kako… All right! Let's embark on our mission. We'll find a new curry shop! -Let's do this! Let's fill our bellies! -I thought you had a pressing deadline? How does this sound? "Legendary curry" at Hottarakashi Hot Springs. -Legendary? -Take a look at this. The curry roux is made with vegetables that have been stewed so long they've melted. The dish is then topped with soft and chewy stewed chicken. Hottarakashi Hot Springs? That's kind of far. I need curry now! Let's roll! Let's go! We're here! There's a lot of people here, as always. Look, that must be where they serve the legendary curry. Here we go! How appetizing! For the topping, it appears they offer pork along with chicken. If I take a refreshing bath and then eat that curry, I can definitely push through my deadline. A bath? As always, what a magnificent view of Mount Fuji. -How nice. -How nice. Why is this happening to me? We took our sweet time taking a bath. In that case, only a special curry can satisfy me. There's got to be something… The relaxing effect of the bath is completely gone.

washed Guardian stones, also known as "deity stones," are mysterious petrospheres, of which there are hundreds scattered throughout Yamanashi Prefecture. They are often placed in between houses, on sides of streets, and on shrine grounds. They take various shapes and sizes. According to one theory, they are out-of-place artifacts that share their origins with the stone spheres of Costa Rica. Another theory suggests that they were used as save points by the feudal warlord Shingen Takeda. Can you not slide in made-up stories? Find the roundest guardian stone, and win a trip to Costa Rica!

The relaxing effect of the bath is completely gone. Yeah. I want this one! Let's go here! That's huge! That's huge! Minamiaiki... Isn't that in Nagano?! It's a serious detour from here. Don't you worry. See this? I found a shortcut! That is definitely not a shortcut! That is definitely not a shortcut! Odarumi Pass connects Yamanashi and Nagano Prefecture. It is the road with the highest altitude in Japan accessible by car. Let's take a short break here. Yeah... We finally reached the summit. I'm carsick. Tell me again why we're driving through this mountain road just for some curry? For the sake of love. No, you have an abnormal obsession with curry. Only a third of the way left to go! We've got to take the highway on the drive back. My God. It's all off-road from here. Driving through here looks pretty impossible. Looks like we have no other choice but to turn back, Haruno. Hold tight, you two. Say what? What? No! No! Stop! Stop! 80 kilometers from Hottarakashi Hot Springs. We finally made it! I'm gonna puke. This is fantastic! What? Wow, Maitake, those are some sick dance moves. Wait, it's supposed to be elegant? Interesting. There's a maitake mushroom festival going on. Who cares about maitake mushrooms? It's time for curry. Curry! You actually prefer shimeji mushrooms? Sorry to disappoint. Today, we're only serving maitake mushroom dishes for the festival. Since the dam curry is too time-consuming, we don't serve it. What? Ms. Haru, what did you do to deserve this? Wait... Ms. Haru! Stupid maitake! It's scrumptious! All that to end up at the convenience store. You would've been satisfied with any curry. You two are missing the point. We can appreciate this convenience store curry because we've had to wait all day. Our effort wasn't wasted. It "spiced up" this convenience store curry better than any spice ever could! Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. In the end, we found out Ms. Haru did not, in fact, meet her deadline.
