What day is it today?
Putting aside the fact that “Leonardo AI” ignores things, it turned out a nice picture.
Personally, I prefer “Recraft V3”.
April 17th is “Tokugawa Ieyasu Memorial Day”.
Tokugawa Ieyasu passed away on April 17th, 1616 (June 1st in the Gregorian calendar). It is said that he died after eating deep-fried sea bream at Tanaka Castle (Fujieda City, Shizuoka Prefecture) during a falconry trip.
