What is the 72nd ``Madfish School''...

 

 

 





Ketsugyo is a high-class fish that has been considered a delicious fish in ancient China and has appeared in Chinese poems. Because the name is not seen in Japan, it is said that the word ``Salmon'' came to be read as ``Salmon School'', referring to the salmon that travel up the river in schools, and as a word for the ``72'' to describe that time of year. However, for the Ainu people, salmon is a gift from the gods, who call it the "fish of the gods" (kamuichep). It is praised as an important presence.
