Meido heaven! :3

Kinda reminds me of the Thai New Year, which many young people also celebrate in a similar fashion...except they throw water at each other.

I'm wondering.. is there any particular reason why this year's Uchimizu is called UchimizuKKO? 
Regardless, I wish I could be there. Keep us updated with this event, Danny!

Uchimizu refers to the action of sprinkling water on the streets in the summer and has been a tradition in Japan for many many moons. The water keeps the dust low and cools off the immediate area. You can read up more on this tradition somewhere here.

The Uchimizukko Daishugo event has made this tradition more interesting by getting legions of maids to do the watering. Video included after the jump.

I was there, but I couldn't get a good shot since the press were hogging all the good lines of sight, leaving the masses with very little room. Of course, if I had a proper camera with a zoom lens, I might have gotten a better shot.
This year, there was a one minute silent prayer for the victims of the stabbing in Akihabara.
