About Ryujin Sary hoso-doko

Ryujin dia sary hoso-doko nentanina avy amin'ny andriamanitra dragona an'ny ranomasina ao amin'ny angano japoney. Namboarina avy amin'ny tsy misy na inona na inona ilay asa kanto ary manaraka fomba fisainana tsotra miaraka amin'ny fanamafisana mafy ny antsipiriany. Ny fototra dia mampiseho onja nentanina avy amin'ny japoney izay maneho ilay mpilalao. Nosoritana voalohany tamin'ny endrika nomerika ilay hevitra, avy eo dia nampiharina ny tsipika vektera, ny aloka ary ny loko, ary namita ny sary ny fanitsiana farany. Ny sary hoso-doko dia natao pirinty amin'ny afisy, karatra fiarahabana ary lobaka. Ny tanjona dia ny hampita ny herin'ilay mpilalao amin'ny alalan'ny sary nentim-paharazana japoney miaraka amin'ny endriky ny tena manokana.
