    I'm a city-pop and Shibuya-kei listener, so "Fuyu ga Hajimaruyo" by Makihara Noriyuki gets me in the Japanese Christmas spirit.

    Awatembo no Santa Claus is a favorite in our household! I think it's a fun one for a few reasons, one of them being that it's not just a Japanese adaptation of an existing Christmas carol. It's got lots of Japanese onomatopoeic expressions (I think the Japanese language is so good with that!), and Awatembo is such a funny way to describe Santa. It makes it seem like he's super stressed, and I guess in a way it humanizes Santa and makes him just another dude with a deadline.

Where do you visit Santa Claus?

Firstly, do you visit Santa Claus each year in Japan? And if so, where? I've been posting places you can meet Santa Claus in various parts of Japan on the blog section. If you are looking for somewhere to meet him this year, you'll find at least 25 places on City-cost.

Did you feel the December 8th earthquake?

There was a large earthquake off the coast of Aomori Prefecture at 11.15 pm on December 8th 2025. We are approximately 700 kilometers from the epicenter, yet we felt it very strongly. Did you feel it and how far away (roughly) are you from the epicenter?
