Today is the first national holiday of the year called seijin no hi (成人の日) Coming-of-Age Day, and the last day of the three day weekend.
Each municipality has a celebration ceremony. Many women wear the beautiful long sleeve kimono called furisode (振り袖) and some men were the formal costume called montsuki hakama (紋付袴).
It used to be on January 15, but has become on the second Monday of January since 2000 because of happy Monday system.
Being adult used to be 20 years old, but has become 18 years old since April last year.
How old is adult in your country?
I published the 62nd ebook. To my glad it is No.1 in Japan.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
