Wanage (Ring Toss)

You toss each ring lightly, and whether it lands or not, you're on to the next one.

QuicklyShare itDo it yourself

Wanage is a game where you throw rings from a little way back and try to hook them over upright pegs or prizes. You're handed several rings at once, so if the first misses, you can throw the next right away. You know whether it caught the moment after you throw.

You, too, would rather try it quickly with your own hands than think it over at length. You throw once and use the feel of it to adjust your next throw. And just as you can split your rings with a friend, you generously pass fun chances around to the people near you.

Because you can throw one after another, your aim on each throw can get a little rough. When one is close to going on, try taking one deep breath and checking your aim before you throw. You'll stay just as quick, and more rings will land.

Strengths

You can cut the time spent hesitating short and start by just trying
Even when it doesn't work, you can try a different way right away
You can generously pass your turn or your share to the people around you

Where you may stumble

Because you try things so quickly, it's hard to notice you keep missing the same way
Sharing things out, you find your own share has quietly shrunk
Even when it would be faster to leave it to someone else, you end up doing it yourself

Sounds familiar, Wanage (Ring Toss)?

When you open a bag of snacks, the first thing you do is hold it out to everyone: “Help yourselves”
When you miss at some little game, you say “That was practice” and go again straight away
When you snap apart your disposable chopsticks, you snap apart the next person's for them too

Where you shine

When a group is trying something for the first time, or when it's better to get moving quickly — that's when your first throw helps everyone else get moving too.

Tips for “Wanage (Ring Toss)”

If you miss the same way twice in a row, stop for a moment and change how you throw

Easy together

Wataame (Cotton Candy) — The Wataame also enjoys things quickly and shares with others. While the Wanage tries one thing after another, the Wataame finds the results just as funny, so even the misses keep the mood bright.

Easy together

Shateki (Cork-Gun Shooting) — The Shateki also takes on challenges with its own hands and shares its turns with others. When the Wanage, who just throws to see what happens, watches the Shateki take careful aim, it starts to see how to aim its own next throw.

May clash

Ringo-ame (Candy Apple) — The Ringo-ame wants to savor its own one thing carefully, close at hand, and leave the making to whoever's good at it. The Wanage's “Let's do it together!” — wanting to try things with its own hands and pass the fun around — can sound sudden to the Ringo-ame, while to the Wanage, the Ringo-ame's quietness can look like a lack of interest.
