I understand that some otakus can’t stand the sun, especially since the weather is so darn hot in Summer. But this weekend Uchimizukko festival is definitely a must for any meido/cosplayer lover.
Anyway, Uchimizu is a usual thing during summer, whereby folks just sprinkle water on the street to cool off the neighbourhood.
But of course, every year there is this special event whereby the Uchimizukko are done by the meidos.
This year, Uchimizukko will be held on the 02nd August and will commence from Kanda Myojin 神田明神 (3.30pm) and end in Akiba (5pm).

My guess is that while the surroundings are cooled off by the water, the heat is sizzling hot with so many kawaii meidos.
Anyone know cheap flight prices? I must get there!!
That has to be one dam amazing day out but wouldn’t the evaporating water just make the area really really humid, maybe im just over thinking things…. Wow that sounds like a good day out lol i cant get over how fun that would be to watch
Aha that’s awesome, I’ll be there for sure since I’m heading to Akiba on the 2nd August.
Quoting sources (such as official site) will gradually earn you more readers. Trust me
@ DannyChoo: Oppps thanks for the heads up. I seemed to have missed out the source for this one. Don’t worry. If you scan all my articles, I always make it a point to reference it back to the author. (Unless I unintentionally missed out the source that is)
*Wish I was there*
