- Listings pair English event details with Japanese names; the site says it checks organizers’ own Japanese pages daily.
Field notes
Entries are arranged by city and topic, with details such as dates, venues, neighborhoods, and occasional free-entry notes. The site also has seasonal pages: its copy says cherry blossom timing draws on weather-agency records, while the autumn section compares this season with last. The homepage describes its sourcing as daily checks of organizers’ Japanese pages, though the extracted dates raise a question about how current some listings are.
