YuriAma 144 - Himezaki-san & New Year's Eve (Patreon)

“Amane─, I heard that the bell that strikes at the end of New Year's Eve is supposed to be rung 108 times, but why?”

“There are 108 types of worldly desires in humans, and each strike is supposed to negate one of them, that seems to be the origin, Himezaki-san.”

“Hee─h, so 108 times is for that─, that’s quite the trouble─.”

“Well, I do think it's somewhat tiring since you're doing the same thing 108 times.”

“No, that's not it. I've also done that before.”

“Un? Is that so? Then what's the trouble?”

“Before I hit it 108 times, either the bell or the wood always breaks, you know.”

“Please don't make it sound like it's something beyond your control. It looks like that one year was filled with worldly desires.”
