Kodamatsu are traditional Japanese New Year decorations placed in pairs. You will find them in pairs on the Tokyo Blur 2 course in the Mario Cup. You want to try and use drivers who can get more than one item on this course because it will make it much easier to do.

• Mario (Happi)
• Diddy Kong
• Shy Guy (Pastry Chef)
• Pauline (Party Time)
• Mario (Santa)
• Peach (Kimono)
• Mario

It is best to stay in the middle to back of the pack to make sure you receive offensive items. You can use any offensive items, from green shells to throwing bananas at them.

If you are struggling to see to hit the Kadomatsu due to the speed of the race, do this challenge at 50 CC to make it easier. When you get an offensive item, be sure to hold on to it until you see the Kadomatsu, then drive straight at it and use the item just as you are about to make contact.

There are two different pairs of Kadomatsu around the course, one pair is right at the finish line, while the other is after the small ramp off to the right side of the track. You need to try and get at least one of them with an item each time you pass because you will need to hit them three times in a single race. It is not a very difficult challenge once you learn their locations.
