Cool! For others, the Google Translate of this is "Middle school graduation ceremony in old Japan, Okinawa, had a similar tradition. Raw eggs and flour, hit each other there will be white. Now, I have completely obsolete, as a reminder to return the ceremony, 暴Remasu on Main Street."
Yes and no. Really, it's neutral; the tomatoes are grown to be thrown and paid for (indirectly) by the people that go to throw them. No throwing, no growing. No 'waste'. It does, however, create jobs: the growers, the hotels (increased bookings), travel agents etc. Besides; those tomatoes could not be sent to where they're needed economically. It's a self contained circle. IMHO. :-)
Great you enjoyed it! With luck, anyone viewing these videos with a view to going next time will see how much fun people have when they're there :-) So if you're a viewer not a go-er, go! If you've been, tell others how it was!
日本の昔の沖縄の中学の卒業式に、似たような風習がありました。小麦粉と生卵を、お互いぶつけあって、真っ白になります。今はすっかり廃れてしまいましたけど、名残として、成人式の帰りに、メインストリートで暴れます。
