Fireworks over Maishima as seen from Nishinomiya. Here are photos and videos sent in by our readers.
Naruohama
From Kagayaki No. 509, a Nishitsu supporter

Since it’s fairly close to Nishinomiya, this might have been where they looked the biggest.
Here’s our full report↓
Koyoen
From Bizen-no-kami, who also sent us footage from the Expo site.
They were seriously impressive. The apartment building in front might be Central Garden Tower.
Koshien
From Twilight.

Bottom right. It looks like the drones were visible too.
The drones and fireworks were clearly visible from Koshien too!
Ichiriyamacho (pretty much around Hanshin Racecourse)
From an anonymous reader.

Apparently they could see them from a pedestrian bridge in Ichiriyamacho. Even from Nishinomiya, and almost from the Takarazuka side, you can still see them.
Myaku-Myaku was visible
From Tomoland.
This was seen from Amagasaki Sports Forest, almost right next to Naruohama. A forward-leaning Myaku-Myaku is probably pretty rare.
Since Amagasaki is slightly closer, it might be really easy to see from there.
From Takarazuka
Provided by Yoko.
Apparently they could see them from an apartment building in Takarazuka too. It’s quite far away, but from a higher spot they may be much easier to see. The air was clear, and they could hear the sound well too.
Koshien Ohashi Bridge
From Poporon.

You can pretty much see everything! The drone Myaku-Myaku is stretching out too.
Nishinomiyahama
From a Nishinomiyahama resident.
Nishinomiyahama is the farthest of the hama areas, but they were still clearly visible.
Naruohama
From Megumin.

As expected, they’re powerful when you’re close. In the end, everyone watched from around the factory area a little past the sea fishing park in Naruohama, and these were apparently taken from there with a DSLR camera.

The drones from the side look pretty great too.
Mukogawa Danchi
From Ikamimi.
They said, “We could see them clearly from a high floor in Mukogawa Danchi.” It’s great that they were visible from so many places around Nishinomiya.

Finally
Fireworks and drones over Maishima were visible from Nishinomiya. We hope this reaches those who couldn’t see them. Tomorrow, the fireworks at Nishikinohama may also be faintly visible from Nishinomiya. Here’s hoping that one day Nishinomiya can host a major fireworks festival and drone show of its own. 🙏 Iyasa!
