What day is it today?
This time too, I tried mixing things up with the “What day is it today?” theme.
I’ve emphasized “Rockabilly Day,” but I wonder how much I’ve managed to include.
February 8th is “Rockabilly Day”.
The day comes from the fact that the Nichigeki Western Carnival, which sparked the rockabilly boom, was held on February 8th, 1958.

Create a gorgeous piece of work depicting a male vocalist with a pompadour hairstyle in an anime-style illustration.
The seductive man poses powerfully with a bowl of ramen in hand, wearing gothic-style leather pants and a leather jacket with the post office symbol "〒" pasted in red on his bare skin, and many luxurious metal accessories hanging from his neck.
The design incorporates gothic elements such as studs, leather, and Victorian details to express an elegant and intricate style.
The background is a rural chicken coop, and the sunset creates a dramatic atmosphere of strong contrasts.Summary of what day it is today: February 8th

- Postal Mark Day: In 1887 (Meiji 20), the “cho” from the “Kyoto, Bei, and Cho” symbols was decided upon to match the “Tei” symbol of the Ministry of Communications.
