2025 feels like it’s happening in the blink of an eye. To be honest, I was feeling pretty burnt out after working on the 2025 Cherry Blossom Guide, so even though I managed to take some videos during sakura season here in the Kanto region, I didn’t have the energy to release any YouTube videos at the time.
After a bit of rest, I was finally able to slow down and make sense of the season—and this video is the result. A quiet love letter to spring.
In Japan, spring marks the beginning of new things—a new school year, a new job, a fresh start. And while it might not be the same where you are, I hope the energy I felt while filming—that quiet sense of hope and momentum—gives you a little nudge too. Maybe toward something you’ve been putting off. Maybe toward something you’ve always wanted.
I can’t promise it’ll all work out. But I do believe this: you’re always allowed to begin again.
Thanks for being here. I hope you enjoy the video.
