Persona 3 Reload: Which Phrase Symbolizes Summer?

Correct Answer for the question: What Phrase Symbolizes Summer?

Among these phrases, a rain of flowers, mystical mirage and vivid carp streamers, which one symbolizes summer? The correct answer is “Vivid Carp Streamers” so go ahead and select it to get Charm points and some extra popularity among your classmates.

The teacher explains that “mystical mirage” and “a rain of flowers” represent spring. A mirage is a natural phenomenon that occurs around late March to early June. And “a rain of flowers” refers to the spring showers around the time cherry blossoms bloom. It’s not literally raining flowers.

For those who want to know a bit more about the answer, here’s a quick explanation. Vivid Carp Streamers, also known as koinobori in Japanese, are colorful carp-shaped windsocks traditionally flown in Japan to celebrate Children’s Day which falls on May 5th. However, they are also commonly displayed throughout the summer months, particularly during festivals and celebrations.

These colorful carp streamers represent strength, perseverance, and good luck. They are often flown high in the wind, symbolizing the hope that children will grow up to be healthy and successful, just like the carp, a fish known for its resilience and ability to swim upstream against strong currents.
