I believe every region has its own traditional local dishes—some tied to specific countries, others to broader regions, or sometimes to even smaller, local areas. Some are staple foods, while others might be sweets or snacks.
Personally, I really lov...

Hi, This is muchi.
The rainy season in Japan ended way too early this year, and now the scorching heat has arrived. I'm really worried about water shortages. Japan is usually rich in water resources, so Japanese people tend to be pretty extravagant with water usage. Honestly, if we ...

The other day, I went shopping at Costco with a friend.
On the way there, we stopped by a small café standing all alone in the middle of a wide stretch of rice fields and had their morning set.

I mentioned previously that I had visited a hot spring town—and ever since then, I’ve become hooked on soaking in hot springs. So this time, I headed to another onsen spot.
It was relatively close by, but I had never been there before.

In Japan, we have a long-standing culture of onsen (hot springs) and sento (public bathhouses).
These are large communal baths where everyone soaks in the hot water completely naked (of course, men and women are separated).

The rainy season has begun here in Japan, and the humidity is starting to rise.
Of course, the women in our manga are always surrounded by high humidity—maybe it’s the rainy season all year round for them.

In the area where I live, the Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms—arguably the most beloved variety in Japan—have already fallen, and now the later-blooming cherry trees are starting to bloom. These are beautiful in their own way as well.
