I wonder if we'll get a concentration of winter months voted for?

Because of that, you can vote for 4 months.

Let's poll
Best month to be in Japan
You may choose 4

Apart from winter, must be October for me. Nice comfortable weather, great views, and winter just round the corner. Perfect!

I have always loved the autumnal months and in Japan they are very pretty and comfortable as well.

October - May is good.

I also like October November, and of course the winter season.

Never gets unbearable up here in Hokkaidough.

October would be my pick for my family to visit I think, followed by May.

Last night was hot.
I used to be careful with how much I used the aircon but now I just need to be comfortable. I can't concentrate or be useful at anything in the heat.

October wins the non-winter skakes.
It is a good month in Japan though.

Oct/Nov is a good time of year. So is spring but it tends to heat up so quickly and then run into the rainy season so autumn beats it hands down.

I like obon, because the Oishida Matsuri is a lot of fun. Weather -> not.

A nutter!

I have no desire at all to visit Japan in hot season. It doesn't sound like fun at all.

Come here in August if you want to know why the IJA was so effective at tropical/jungle warfare.

if you can't stand the heat, get outta the kitchen.

Heat, tropical humidity.... life. Get used to it.

You take the rough with the smooth.

October is still THE month for me.

October is my favourite month for sure. Youtei is often capped with snow and the colours in the valley are amazing. Couple that with the first frosts of the season and lovely mild days, it just doesn't get much better.
