Eat Onigiri and defeat the demon!

Defeat demons at home!
This year, Setsubun falls on February 2nd for the first time in 124 years!

This year's Setsubun is on February 2nd!

There are 365 days and 6 hours in a year, and leap years exist to adjust those 6 hours. However, when measured on an hourly basis, there is a slight discrepancy, so the first day of spring is adjusted by moving it forward or backward by one day.
This year, the start of spring has been brought forward by one day, which has resulted in the change of Setsubun, which occurs the day before the start of spring.
Next year, Setsubun will be on February 3rd.

Be careful with small children!

The fried beans in the Agni presentation photo are made using beans that have been boiled thoroughly until soft.
Small children's throats are not yet fully developed and they may choke on hard beans. Please be careful not to use dry or hard beans.
