At the venue, an introduction of the new course “WizCity” has been held, with talks about future updates and a tournament with the event’s visitors. Admission was free, the number of visitors exceeded 1,800. Attendees received special gifts, including an “original neck strap” and a “club set serial card.” The club set was either the “Flower Club Set,” where the Pangya logo turns into a flower when you take a shot, or the “Drum Club Set,” which features a pleasant drum sound when you take a shot. Additionally, original playing cards featuring chibi-style characters were available for purchase at the venue on the day of the event.
Another similar event called Pangya Party 2 was held on 25.12.2011, more about this will be posted in the next post in the future.
