A new special event called "Celestial Nights" will commence at 1:00 (PDT), on June 29.
During the festival of Celestial Nights, people write poems to their faraway loved ones on strips of brightly colored paper, which are then tied to bamboo stalks. These arcing stalks of bamboo represent a bridge that spans the great river in the night sky.
What will this event hold in store for Vana'diel's adventurers? Gather your closest companions and find out together!

Yay?

Tanabata...

I wonder if they'll run a parallel of the Orihime/Hikoboshi with Altana/Promathia...that'd be hillarious

All I care about is the Summerfest music.
If this isn't Summerfest, it can rot in a corpse-filled ditch, for all I care.

Something I noticed about that picture. Blue- Bastok. Red- San d'Oria, Green- Windurst. But there are two more slips of paper: white and yellow. Does that mean that Jeuno and Al Zhabi are going to be involved in this event? (That would be a first.)

Oh God, i just want summerfest >.>

[Shoju]

white = jeuno so i think its safe to guess that yellow = aht urhgan seeing as how their flag's color correspond to that of the paper.

edit: that was towards Septimus

people write poems

I'M GOING TO WRITE BLOOD RED POEMS!

Anyone else a bit clueless on what we will be doing? It seems a bit odd to me.

it's based off an actual event in Japan, iirc. I don't recall the name of it, the only reason I know much about it is because it was in one of the Manga I read.

Tanbata.
