Part of the Golden Week block of holidays is May 5th's Kodomo no Hi or Children Day. An element of the tradition incorporates a kabuto (helmet) to symbolize a strong, healthy child (originally boy). Celebrating the occasion, the Madoka Magica online social game has cards of the girls in their paper kabuto, and, at least in the case of Sayaka and Kyoko, acting suitably childish.
