Spring in Japan

Spring in Japan means verdant greenery, cherry blossom and perfect weather

As the mountain snows begin to recede and the bare trees start producing leaves, an exciting sense of tension takes over cities and towns across the country. By late March, the Japanese flock outside to reign in the season with the incoming cherry blossom.

During this period, most of Japan rests at a pleasant 12 degrees Celsius, meaning you can travel comfortably in light outerwear and sweaters. Moving into the mountains and up the northern island of Hokkaido, you’ll find chillier weather, and many Hokkaido ski resorts remain open well past March.

Don’t Call It Mystery

This movie is basically a sequel to the dramatic storyline. However, the main character remains the same, the Ancient Totono, played by Masaki Suda. If in the drama, Tono faces a series of mysterious events, in this movie, he is faced with only one mystery. What is it?

Totono is described as a student with naturally curly hair, which sets him apart from the majority of Japanese who usually have straight hair. In addition, Totono is characterized as someone who enjoys engaging in conversation, especially when it involves puzzling mysteries.

One day, his passion for unraveling mysteries became a reality. During a trip to Hiroshima city, he met the Kariatsumari family. While there, both Totono and the Kariatsumari family experienced strange occurrences, as they were startled by unusual land changes that occurred on the Kariatsumari property.

Many speculate that these changes are the result of supernatural activity, but Totono remains skeptical and begins an investigation into the case.
