Happy Children's Day From the Anime World! Part I

posted on by Ken Iikura-Gross
Won't someone please think of the children

Late April and early May is a wonderful time for everyone living in Japan because of the Golden Week holidays: Showa Day, Constitution Day, Greenery Day, and Children's Day. Kids celebrate Children's Day by flying carp-shaped koinobori flags, displaying samurai helmets, eating kusamochi rice sweets, and generally having fun — and so are creators all around the anime and manga world:
