May 9 is the day Goku Day is celebrated, also known as Goku Day, one of the most important days for Dragon Ball fans. But why is Goku Day celebrated on May 9?
The answer has to do with the way the Japanese read the calendar. In Japan, the calendar is read in the opposite direction to ours, starting with the month and then the day. The kanji for the number 5 is pronounced “go” and the kanji for the number 9 is pronounced “ku.” When reading the date “May 9”, it sounds like “Goku” in Japanese, which has led many fans to celebrate this day in honor of the main character of Dragon Ball.
Although fans have been celebrating Goku Day for a long time, it wasn’t until 2015 that it was officially recognized as a holiday. That year, the Japan Anniversary Association officially approved the celebration of Goku Day, after receiving multiple requests from fans and TOEI Animation, the company responsible for producing the Dragon Ball anime.
Since then, every year Goku Day is celebrated on May 9, and in 2022 the seventh official edition was celebrated. Although the date originated in Japan, the celebration of Goku Day has spread throughout the world and is one of the most important days for Dragon Ball fans.
Goku Day is a very important date for Dragon Ball fans, and there are many different ways to celebrate it. Some fans organize marathons of Dragon Ball episodes and movies, while others share their drawings and fanarts on social media.
In addition, some companies such as Bandai Namco Entertainment have taken advantage of this date to offer discounts on products related to the series or announce exclusive content for their Dragon Ball games. Overall, Goku Day is an opportunity for fans to show their love and appreciation for this iconic character and his legacy in popular culture.
In conclusion, Goku Day is a very special date for Dragon Ball fans around the world, which originates from the way the Japanese read the calendar.
