Explanation:
Siehe https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koi-Nobori
- wenngleich diese wohl zum Knabenfest gehisst werden. Von einem Fest des Meeresgottes steht zumindest in diesem Artikel nichts.

Reference: Koi-Nobori

Reference information:
Ich denke, es könnte sich um Folgendes handeln:

"Koinobori (鯉のぼり?), meaning "carp streamer" in Japanese, are carp-shaped wind socks traditionally flown in Japan to celebrate [...] a traditional calendrical event which is now designated a national holiday"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koinobori

„Koi-Nobori (jap. 鯉のぼり, dt. Karpfenfahne oder Karpfendrachen) bzw. Satsuki-Nobori (五月幟, dt. Maifahne) sind kleine Windsäcke, die am japanischen Knabenfest (5. Mai) vor den Häusern gehisst werden.“
