"Love Live" Fans Celebrate Umi-no-hi and Nico's Birthday

It's a busy start of the week for Love Live fans. On July 21st, Japan is celebrating Umi-no-hi or Marine Day. It originally commemorated the Meiji Emperor's 1876 voyage in the iron steam ship Meiji-Maru, but in 1995 became a national holiday celebrating maritime prosperity... or, for otaku, a chance to pay tribute to Umi Sonoda. Then, in a nice pun, July 22 is Nico Yazawa's birthday.
