“#Hololive’s Aqua, Sephiroth Statues Greets Prospective Students at Kyoto University<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\"Sephiroth<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Today marked the general<\/a> entrance exams at Kyoto University<\/strong>, which sees hundreds of prospective students walk through the campus to the halls where their futures await. Every year, current students at Kyodai erect signs and statues in support of their future underclassmen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

One such tradition is the\u00a0annual\u00a0Orita Hikoichi’<\/strong>s statue event, where current students make up<\/span><\/a> an imitation statue (usually a pop-culture reference) to greet prospective students taking the general selection exams.\u00a0Though the celebrations usually only having one statue going up to represent the now-gone statue of one of the founders of a previous incarnation of Kyoto University, three went up this year,\u00a0including hololive’s Aqua<\/strong>, Final Fantasy VII<\/strong><\/em>‘s Sephiroth<\/strong>, and the boar from\u00a0Kaiketsu Zorori<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But Kyoto University wasn’t having it, putting up signs asking for the statues to be taken down (which can be seen in the images above). Because of the abundance of statues this year, only one was placed on top of the pedestal where the original\u00a0Orita Hikoichi stood, with, thankfully, signs around the statue to social<\/a>ly distance people. The more accepted (by the university)\u00a0signage also returned this year, with hololive’s Pekora<\/strong>, Demon Slayer<\/span><\/a>‘<\/strong><\/em>s Akaza<\/strong>, and many more come out to encourage the exam takers.<\/p>\n
