Anime Day

National Anime Day is an annual holiday that celebrates the art form of anime.

It is typically celebrated on April 15th, which is the birthday of Osamu Tezuka, a Japanese manga artist and animator who is often referred to as the "Godfather of Anime." National Anime Day is a day for anime fans all around the world to come together and celebrate their love of the art form, whether by watching their favorite anime shows, cosplaying as their favorite characters, attending anime conventions, or sharing their enthusiasm for anime on social media.

The day is relatively new, having been first celebrated in 2006 by the anime retailer AnimeUSA, but it has since grown in popularity and is now recognized by many anime fans and organizations.
