After a break, the online meeting welcomed Professor Kazuhiko Kobayashi of Kyoto Sangyo University and Professor Keisuke Fukaya of Chubu University with Mitsutaka Inui, a director of Kamigamo Shrine, as moderator.
Shinyusha plans to publish a book about annual events to celebrate its 10th anniversary next year. Although there are various annual events, sometimes the meaning is not well known and only recognized as a day to eat certain food such as Sakuramochi (spring season or Girl's Day, March 3) or Kashiwa Mochi (Children's Day, May 5). The panelists and Princess Akiko discussed events/festivals such as New Year's, Children's Day, Obon, festival offerings, and opportunities to learn about annual events in school such as social studies, life sciences, and music classes.
