● Gathering of Showa Era Stars ● For dementia prevention, progression suppression, and brain training ● As a tool for reminiscence therapy* ● For recreation and communication building ● 45 stars that color Showa-era pop songs *Reminiscence therapy is a type of psychotherapy primarily aimed at the elderly, divided into individual reminiscence therapy conducted one-on-one with professionals such as clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, or therapists, and group reminiscence therapy conducted in small groups. In group reminiscence therapy, techniques are used where participants share memories based on themes or use tools such as photos, newspapers, and plants to facilitate conversation. It is aimed at providing mental stability for elderly individuals showing signs of geriatric depression by recalling the past (joyful times) to evoke memories that are "fun" and "nostalgic," leading to a reevaluation of life and an increase in self-esteem. Additionally, by recalling past memories while interacting with others, it can strengthen "episodic memory," which is believed to decline when approaching dementia, making it effective for elderly individuals at risk of dementia or showing tendencies towards it. *There is also a "Mitsuko Hibari Karuta" specifically focused on Ms. Mitsuko Hibari!

basic information
The Showa Star Karuta consists of reading cards based on popular songs from the Showa era and picture cards featuring a total of 45 stars. Although it was something that had not been possible until now, thanks to the goodwill of the rights holders, we were able to commercialize rare photos from the long-established "Marubell-do" as "karuta." When you listen to the reading cards and pick up the picture cards, the act of "quickly taking action based on information received through the ears" helps train brain functions such as concentration, judgment, and the nerve transmission function from the brain to the body (which can prevent dementia). Additionally, discussing the songs and stars with others or reminiscing about the past can help strengthen "episodic memory," which is believed to decline when one is on the verge of dementia. Reminiscence therapy is expected to improve the quality of life (QOL) by alleviating feelings of depression and anxiety in the elderly. The Showa Star Karuta is recommended as a tool for group reminiscence therapy conducted in nursing facilities and communities. It is also recommended as a recreational activity for those who spent their youth in the Showa era to reminisce together, as well as a communication tool that includes younger generations among families and communities.
