Mine just arrived this afternoon! First impression: blown away.

Seriously, out of the box this thing is a lunar machine. That being said, it's definitely not too sticky. I've personally never played with a mugen but I've heard this tama has a similar feel.

This is hands down the nicest ozora I've ever played with and probably my second favorite kendama ever. Pick one up while you still can!

Im gonna have to eat my words and get one again.
I had the recommended seal one on my possession before i had to give it to someone else and i didn't want to dent it because it wasn't technically mine. so i was only able to place it in lighthouse. I thought it felt too tacky off my first judgment. But i am hearing nothing but good reviews.

Therefor my "to tacky comment" can and probably should just be ignored.

I've only had time to do a couple of clicks but first impressions:
Straight out of the package it just looks great! The string hole is not really that centered, although it doesn't affect play. The stickyness is not that noticeable. I was expecting a sticky tama or a rough one like some KROM's or like my Sweets Frost. But it has a very similar feel to my yellow oozora, like the stickyness is an interplay between the paint and the roughness of the ken.

I am not that good at lunars and have been able to land some with it. It still needs a good amount of practice, similar to my other kendamas, so I would compare it to the yellow oozoras. If they had done something special or extra with the paint, I doubt that the JKA would allow it to have a competition seal.

Once I had (a lot) more clicks, I will try and write up a full review.

[plus, a shoutout to goodsfromjapan, which has a good service, (relatively) low shipping costs and very fast delivery time. I'm planning on ordering there more in the future. ]
Kendama Belgium!

Sounds awful.
If you don't want to BUY MY BOOKS 😉, then why not ask your local library to order them in, and read them for free? That would help too. Cheers!
