How DO you reset those pins?

In the days before automated pin-setting equipment, Pin Boys were paid a penny a pin.

I don't know specifically who would be setting these oversized pins.  But it would probably be in your best interest to tip them well.

Sarah, you're missing out on the bowling (and kisses)!!!

It's also possible that there was an illusion/magic barrier blocking the passage that would have been removed by getting a strike, don't expect everything to be mechanical.

They are probably reset by magic. Or by group of people. Or ...

... wait. They may be perfectly capable of standing up themselves. Like, transform back, stand up and transform into pins again.

She's here for archaeology, not bowling. She will be disappointed.

Considering the bowling itself was based on transformation, it's quite logical the removing of passage would be as well.

Would be funny if it would really be blocked just by illusion. If you know the passage is there, you can go straight away. If not, you either play the bowling, or check whole wall feet by feet ...

(Also, could even be technology: laser sensors and hologram. But that wouldn't explain Nanase's transformation.)

There goes the concussion report.  

(Suddenly, the pins reset on their own, because magic)

I love Dan's suggestion that you reset them by leaving the room and coming back in.  That would definitely suit the videogame theme of the place!
