In Japanese cartoons, it is often seen that little girls carry such red school bags, and it is very cute to match with girls. Why does such a backpack always appear in the animation, in fact, this kind of red school bag is quite promising.
This small red backpack is called "ランドセル", not the usual "かばん". In the Edo period, when the shogunate began to introduce the Western military system, backpacks ("ransel" or "ranusel") brought from the Netherlands were used as equipment to store soldiers' personal belongings, so it was a foreign word called "randoseru" (Dutch), that is, ランドセル.
As early as 1885, this kind of backpack began to be introduced to Japan, originally a backpack for some model school students, and it was not until around 1955 that this backpack became popular throughout Japan as a school bag for elementary school students, because it was durable and beautiful in appearance, and the Japanese people liked it very much.
This kind of school bag will often be completed by pure hand craftsmanship, after hundreds of processes, so there will be a fine texture, the surface is mostly artificial leather, some will use cow leather or horse leather, the surface will be polished, it looks like ornaments.
It is said that this backpack was widely popular in Japan, and it was in 1982 that the image of Japanese star singer Jun Togawa carrying it on his back became popular. It almost became a fashion at that time.
This kind of school bag is excellent, and very strong, it is said that there will be no problem in using it for more than 5 years, I remember when I was still in Zhengtai, I didn't care much about things, and the backpack bought by my parents was "rotten" in one semester, and it was tattered. Perhaps carrying this sturdy school bag can withstand the "toss" of bear children.
This kind of school bag is also graded, the price is cheap about 10,000 yen can be bought, but the price is as high as 50,000 yen, equivalent to a few thousand pieces to buy a backpack, I think this price, in the country, parents will not accept, is simply a luxury category, of course, for the Japanese, it is not cheap.
As can be seen in more than one anime, I know that this backpack is more expensive, so the girls cherish and cherish this kind of school bag, once the adults are willing to buy them this backpack, they will be very happy, in the daily work I have seen this bridge section at least 2 times.
This backpack is carefully designed, even if it is placed in a heavy object, it is not easy to deform, and it can maintain the center of gravity, which is more comfortable to carry.
Some high-end small red envelopes are also equipped with alarm devices, when children encounter evil people, as long as they press it, they can issue a warning sound to protect the safety of children.
But relatively speaking, there are not many books that can be loaded inside, which is more suitable for Japan's national conditions, and some domestic parents are worried about buying this kind of small school bag to their children who can't hold books, I think it is not empty, at least in terms of the domestic situation, it may not be too suitable for domestic children.
I envy Japanese children for having such beautiful and beautiful educational resources, but when I was a child, I saw my classmates carrying this bag, which really exuded a smell of "rich people's children". Maybe from then on, the feeling of inferiority was eager to try, destined to become an otaku.
