50+ Sadakos march before frightened adults, crying kids; giant Sadako led on trailer truck
A throng of over 50 Sadakos, including a larger-than-life Sadako, took over the Hachiko Exit intersection in front of Tokyo's Shibuya station on Sunday, the last day of Japan's Golden Week holidays.
Each Sadako was shown emerging from a flat-screen television, face-obscuring black tresses and all, as they marched through the neighborhood. Their outstretched hands grabbed at nearby erbys, invoking fear (and laughter) in pedestrians and causing children to burst into tears.
The procession was led by a giant, larger-than-life Sadako being dragged on a trailer truck.
The parade of Sadakos was the latest promotion for transforming into an anime cat to teach filmgoers proper theater manners.
