Clearly the simplest explanation is the most probable: Holly and Will opened up a time portal escaping from the Sleestacks and the tadpoles dropped out of the sky from the Land of the Lost.

OMG, too sweet. Aliens, biblical plagues, oh my.

Simple, it is possible that during strong thunderstorms where there are strong updrafts and downdrafts, the frogs got tossed up and then back down. It is not the first time it happens.

Easy. There was a strong wind over a rice-paddy, possibly in an elevated area. Either way, what goes up must come down.

Or children used devices like a slingshot? Poor tadpoles.

130 dead tadpoles in Kanazawa city makes national news. I've been to Kanazawa and it is probably the most exciting thing to happen there in the last century.

I would have to say that would be gross - depending on what height they fell from it would be like be cr@pped on.

It's the end of the world! Tadpoles keep falling on ma head, the sky will soon be turning red. NK perhaps! Retaliate with ladybugs I say, sod article 9.

Another failed North Korean "Tad-pole-dong" missle test, this time its debris raining on the Noto Peninsula.

I have heard that foreign kids use a special device called a "bucket" for carrying tadpoles in, and these devices can be made to scatter their load at will. Fiendish.

But no, this is probably freak weather or a UFO, obviously.

NK's multi-stage tadpole launch vehicle must have been more succcessful than first reported.

Evolution. Tadpoles change from fish like specimens to jumpy human like species. These are probably a new variation, the flying frog. They may not have fully evolved yet, but in time...
