Kikkoden is an event that used to be held on July 7th of the old lunisolar calendar, and is the prototype of Tanabata (Star Festival). On that day, people offered fruits and threads in hopes of improving their handicraft skills. We will follow the same practice and offer serial and coronal sections of the brain and watermelon rinds sliced in the hope of improving our skill of making paraffin-embedded serial sections with a microtome. In drawing the serial and coronal sections of the brain, we referred to G. Paxinos and C. Watson (1998) The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates, 4th ed., Academic Press.
