Happy 牛, Yeah!
For the past year, the pandemic has brought much inconvenience and misfortune to Earth, forcing Humanity to cower in fear and anguish for the majority of the moons past.
Enough with scurrying around hiding in holes like a Metal Rodent, it’s time for us to diligently work our way towards a future full of prosperity like a Metal Ox.
A very happy Lunar New Year to the lots of you and us who are celebrating this very auspicious season today!
Flourishing a Boar-ing Year Ahead
With the Terran canine howling its final reign of the year, along comes the Terran swine stuffing the next with fulfilling fortune.
This year, we celebrate the Year of the Pig. Or Boar if you’re offended with the former.
Speaking about pigs, of course our Caster of Okeanos won’t hesitate to enjoy the occasion with her horde of cute swine, and a banquet of a party.
Just beware of her offerings of Kykeon…
“福”从天降
As the fiery rooster makes its exit, the Terran canine hounding towards a new lunatic year!
And a very happy Lunar New Year greeting from everyone’s favourite Rider, Astolfo!
For the uninitiated and those unfamiliar with the language, in the Chinese Fate community, Astolfo is given a pet name and most affectionately referred to as 阿福. The character 福 itself means good fortune. The term 福从天降 from the post title means “fortune falls from the sky” literally, which is translated as “may good fortune be blessed upon thee”.
Thus the pun with the trap above. XDc
Fiery Rooster Entering a New Lunatic Year
The Monkey stopped going apes at the end of this season, making way for the Rooster to cock a doodle doo!
Please bear with me and excuse my animal puns… :P
The guilt of neglecting Ranka-chan for a long time now has finally caught up to me, so I guess I should let her come out of the closet and be the kanban musume this year in the celebration of this prosperous Lunar New Year. =w=
Tama-chan can just stay back, relax and enjoy the festive season this time…
Going Apes in This Lunatic Season
The Goat went by, and the Monkey arrived to bring a prosperous new year ahead!
Once again, it’s the dawn of a new lunar year, the annual festive season bringing along lots of reds decorations, Mandarin oranges, God of Prosperity, lion dances, fireworks, Ang Pows (Red Packets), visiting relatives and friends that ask you the same question every year… Oh well you know the rest… :P
Even the Petit’gguys are in the mood to start their own celebrations of showering in golds and plum flowers… XDc
