White Day
March the 14th is called White Day in Japan. It is the day when men give women something as a return of their St. Valentine's Day gifts. It is also a day where, if the male has received more than one confession of love, he normally decides whom he wishes to be with.
White Day is peculiar to Japan as the custom is somewhat new. Men, as a rule-of-thumb, as far as I have heard, generally give white chocolate to the women who gave them giri-choco or honmei-choco on valentines day. If they received Honmei-choco, then normally, the male will do something similar in return, making handmade chocolate as well. With Giri-Choco, they will either also make home-made chocolates or buy pre-made chocolates as a way of saying thank you. It is hard to believe the amount of time and effort that the people actually put into their Honmei-choco gifts!
