We
made
curry
over
a
bonfire,
played
in
the
water
pool
on
the
slide,
played
Nagashi
Somen,
played
tag
in
a
maze,
played
begoma
nails,
fell
from
a
tall
tree,
and
played
a
trapeze
where
a
5-year-old
could
fly
while
a
high
school
student
couldn't.
.
...This
is
the
place
where
I
have
fond
memories
of
spending
half
of
my
youth.
Normally,
any
playground
is
structured
so
that
adults
and
older
people
stand
on
top
of
each
other,
but
here,
adults
and
children,
parents
and
children,
regardless
of
age,
stand
on
the
same
playing
field.
In
some
cases,
children
may
even
teach
it
to
adults.
I'm
a
working
adult
now,
but
I
sometimes
come
here
with
my
friends
and
girlfriend.
You
can
do
anything,
good
or
bad,
but
you
do
it
at
your
own
risk.
That's
the
kind
of
place
it
is.
I
highly
recommend
this
place
to
anyone
who
wants
to
be
able
to
hug
their
child
who
comes
back
covered
in
mud
within
5
minutes
of
being
left
unattended.
However,
compared
to
the
past,
the
surroundings
and
play
equipment
have
become
more
safety-oriented,
and
I
feel
that
the
traditional
adventurous
feel
is
fading
away.
In
addition,
even
though
it
has
been
nearly
40
years
since
the
park
opened,
there
is
a
lack
of
understanding
from
the
surrounding
residents.
I
am
disgusted
with
the
wealthy
people
who
are
typical
of
Setagaya
residents
who
move
in
later
and
then
use
their
self-interested
reasoning
and
personal
complaints
to
undermine
the
true
nature
of
Prepa.
I
hope
it
will
continue
to
be
an
ideal
adventure
playground
for
many
years
to
come.
Don't
lose,
Prepa!
P.S.
I
was
shocked
when
I
heard
that
play
leader
Taka-san
had
passed
away
from
cancer
at
a
young
age.
It
seems
that
until
his
later
years,
he
was
involved
in
activities
such
as
volunteering
with
children
and
helping
children
who
did
not
go
to
school,
and
it
is
truly
a
shame
because
he
was
the
person
who
took
care
of
me
the
most.
Because
it
is
a
place
that
has
been
supported
and
passed
down
by
such
wonderful
people,
it
is
a
place
that
should
never
decay
and
should
continue
to
be
protected.
