Ikimitama can be ranked with Obon.
This is a custom which people celebrate the elderly.
During Obon and Ikimitama, I stayed at my mother’s parents’ house when I was a child.
My mother had 5 siblings, so I had many cousins. We gathered there on those days.
My uncle and aunt treated us so warmly.
She gave us cool watermelon soaked into cold well water for a long time.
And when we slept, he put up the mosquit net.
I had lots of memorable experiences.
