Happy New Year. One small plan is plenty.

The first day of the year. Thank you for drawing your first yuru of the year here.

the round rice cakes are stacked, one small plan is plenty

Happy New Year. Today is New Year's Day, the first day of the year and one of the biggest holidays of the year in Japan.

A Japanese saying puts it this way: the plan for the year is made on New Year's Day. But you don't need a plan for today to count. The round rice cakes stacked on many family altars don't look like they're planning anything. They just sit there, quietly, one on top of the other.

This is a great day. You drew your first fortune of the year, so the year has properly started. Here's to another easygoing one.
