The sad message from the Otaru Aquarium that suddenly appeared in Sapporo is a hot topic, but is it true that the real relationship was different?
They are actually very good friends! The two aquariums have a deep connection
Looking at this advertisement alone, the two aquariums appear to be rivals. In fact, it has been announced that AOAO SAPPORO's exhibit and breeding operations will be carried out jointly with Otaru Aquarium.

In other words, the opening of AOAO SAPPORO is a "new challenge" that Otaru Aquarium is also taking on together. The long-established aquarium and the new urban aquarium are joining hands to promote the aquarium scene in Hokkaido as a whole.
Yet, it's unfair to put out an advertisement like this!


We're looking forward to seeing what the future holds for Otaru Aquarium and AOAO SAPPORO!
