What’s “White” about Japanese White Day?

Описание: As you may know from anime and manga, we celebrate Valentine's day in Japan too. During this time of the year, almost every supermarket and convenience store will prepare a “Valentine’s chocolate area” somewhere in their shop.

However, the way we celebrate Valentine's in Japan is a little different from around the world, and we also have a unique day called “ホワイトデー White Day” a month after Valentine’s day.

How do we actually celebrate Valentine's day? And what’s “white” about White day?

So today, I will explain how Valentine's Day is celebrated in Japan. Next, I will talk about what White Day is, and how it started. Lastly, at the end of the video, I will quickly introduce a different day called “Orange Day” which I didn’t even know about until I made this video.

By watching this video you will be able to enjoy scenes of Valentine's day in anime and manga more, and it'll be especially interesting for those who are willing to study or work in Japan.

Also please let me know in the comments about whether you celebrate Valentine’s Day where you’re from, and if so, how!
