Japanese retailers are trying to make Easter popular this year in Japan.
But I do not know well about Easter.
What should I do on Easter day?
Celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, of course.

You sit in the kitchen with your babushka as she's cooking and painting eggs and you feel overwhelming love flow over you. Then when you babushka dies you cry every easter because you will never feel that again ;_;

>>73363608
Easter day - celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You may color some eggs if you'd like.
Easter Monday - I think this tradition from Czech and Slovakia would be met with quite an enthusiasm among your male population: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SJjPn3esmo

No, no , no guys. Christ died for Japs too. Instead of bashing him for being a pagan, at least try to convert the guy.
>>73373324
Some of the traditions may be adapted from paganism, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with that, the core of the Holiday is still Christian, and that can't be denied.
Easter
>>73373324
>Appropriate a holiday to the point the only people aware it wasn't always you're own are the edgelords trying to discredit christianity

Why does Japan celebrate the rebirth, while America doesn't?

I hate it when holidays (and traditions and culture in general) gets commercialized. Don't celebrate Easter.
>>73380925

He was a merciful guy.
>>73363608
Eat chocolate for breakfast and lamb with wine for dinner.
It is a good holiday.
Just wear something with pastel colors, make a ham and apsaragus quiche, do NOT become Christian.
>>73380809
Good post
>>73363608
Go to the forest and search for painted eggs.
technically you are not suppose to celebrate anything in his name
>>73378232
STFU I'm not some protestant rapture heretic. I'm a good Catholic (though I must admit Orthodoxy has been tempting me for a while now)
>>73381180
Don't listen to Finfag. They've abandoned Christ long time ago and all they have now is jealousy, autism and ebin memes.

They should celebrate Easter as long as they're Christian. They can always put their own spin on it.
go to church
>>73386686

Monday after Easter (Pasquetta) is even more popular here, we usually go on the countryside for a barbecue.
>>73378124
Because we are a secular country.
Now, go tip your menorahs elsewhere.
>>73363608
when I was a kid my parents were hidding chocolat eggs in aluminium foil in our garden early in the morning. Then with my brother and my sister we would go get them and put them in a basket. Then we would keep and eat the result of the hunt the following days.

If you are in it just for commercial value then nothing.
>>73386686
>>73380531
you guys are weird
All these fucking infidels don't even flagelate themselves
Yeah, it's annoying.
Why push more Christian holidays on us?
End goal is to make more money just like how Christmas and Valentine's day are here.
I doubt that anyone here cares about the birth of Christ. Just sell cute Easter eggs and we'll eat it all up, right?
くだらない
>>73363608
Well, you're Japanese, so the "don't eat meat of the earth" part is covered.
Do your research about Jesus Christ and about the different processions in the world.
I'd say don't fall for the Easter egg meme but you Japs only love the commercial part of western celebrations, so suit yourself.
?
...?

Easter is named after the Goddes of the east. So basically she is a Sun-Goddess. As the Sun is born in the East every morning.
Other parafernalia of Eastern are inspired by the Germanic Goddess of Frigg (I don't know how the English name is) , the wife of Wuotan (aka Wodan, aka Woden, aka Oden, aka Odin).
She is Goddess of fertillity so her symbols are eggs and rabbits (as they procreate like rabbits).
Easterfires. So you carry a lot of old unpainted wood together to get an hillsized stash of wood. You have to think about how you stash it tegether, as while it burns it will collapse and you want it to stay tight packed as long as possible. You prepare to have a landmachine to put everything together now and then while it's burning.
So these fires are also symbols of life and fertility. We used to fertilize the fields with the Ashes of the fire.
Now a day they mostly take place in shootingclub and you drink , BBQ (not at the bonfire) and dance to musik and stuff. Also you avoid to be on the wrong side of the fire so you clothes don't smell furnigated.
>>73386686
oh these traditional PET bottles...
>>73407781
Later when Christinity took over they stole the party and dedicated it to Jesus entering undeadness.
The Easterfire was reimagined and dedicated to symbolize the cremation of the Jews that liberated Barabas and doomed Jesus.
