Today is Thanksgiving Day! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! As per usual, this means this post will be a special Thanksgiving Day post. Since Thanksgiving is an American holiday, there isn't really any anime that has a Thanksgiving theme to it. However, a couple anime balloons did make it into this year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade! So, I'll be talking about those instead. For those of you who don't know, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is a huge televised parade held especially for Thanksgiving every year in New York City. As the name suggests, the Macy's company is responsible for this parade. Although most of the floats and balloons aren't based on anime, two of the balloons actually are based on anime characters. These two balloons are Goku from Dragon Ball Z, and Pikachu from Pokémon. Along with this, Hello Kitty often makes an appearance in the parade. But, I didn't see her this year. However, I will still be including pictures of the Goku, Pikachu, and one of the Hello Kitty balloons below so you guys can see what they look like. As a little bonus, I will also be including a Thanksgiving themed anime picture as well. Enjoy!
