Sazae airs on Sundays.
Sazae is a slice-of-life family cartoon that began as a comic strip. It airs internationally on Sunday evenings. The scheduling choice was very intentional as it grew into TV - this was to preserve it as a way to end the weekend, or you might say, to maintain Sazae-San syndrome.
Sazae-San Syndrome refers to that melancholy, dreadful feeling with the harsh contrast of weekend freedom and the oncoming work week.
