Japan Almanac: September in Japan

Field notes

The project uses Hanafuda's 12 plant suits as an organizing framework: each month gets a seasonal page, four-card explanation, related stories, and event references. The September entry connects chrysanthemum cards to Choyo no Sekku, moon-viewing, public holidays, and the sake-cup card used in Koi-Koi combinations. Its events index states that it covers 60 listings, while the month pages indicate that source work is still continuing across the full calendar.
