Midori Days - Title

Title

The Japanese title, Midori no Hibi (美鳥の日々?), means "Midori's days", where "Midori" (美鳥?, lit. beautiful bird) is a main character's name. It can also be translated punningly as "Green Days"—midori 緑 is a homophone for the Japanese word for "green", hence Midori's green hair. In addition, the title is a pun referring to Greenery Day (みどりの日, Midori no hi?), the name of Japanese holiday that formerly was part of Golden Week.

Famous quotes containing the word title:

    In Goya’s greatest scenes we seem to see
    the people of the world
    exactly at the moment when
    they first attained the title of
    ‘suffering humanity’
    Lawrence Ferlinghetti (b. 1919)

    Eternity is not ours by right; and, alone, unrequited sufferings here, form no title thereto.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    And Reason kens he herits in
    A haunted house. Tenants unknown
    Assert their squalid lease of sin
    With earlier title than his own.
    Robert Bridges (1844–1930)
