Rainy Nights, Summer Mysteries - Journeys in Japan | NHK WORLD-JAPAN On Demand

As spring changes to summer in Japan, there is a period of about a month when rainy, cloudy conditions persist. This transitional season is known as Tsuyu. On this episode of Journeys in Japan, we introduce some of the beautiful, mysterious natural phenomena that can be seen at this time of year, as well as an event traditionally held in rural communities across the country. The program is introduced by Michael Keida, who has a smallholding near Tokyo where he cultivates around 200 different kinds of vegetables and other crops using organic methods.

While many know Japan to have 4 seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter, there is actually a 5th season, which is the rainy season or Tsuyu, where the typhoon normally appears, in between summer and autumn.

In this episode, they show you the things that normally takes place during this wet season, such as watching fireflies, glowing mushrooms and Mushiokuri Festival, all of which takes place at night.

Mushiokuri is a long tradition held since the old days before the invention of scientific chemicals, where the farmers plays drum, light up fires and sing to scare away the insects which show up in the fields during the rainy season.

2 Japan Vlog Documentaries to watch about how Japan prepares itself for the Mega-Earthquake

The Day Japan Fears The Most: $1 Trillion Disaster

YouTuber Chris Broad goes to Wajima, the place where the powerful earthquake hit Japan early this year on New Year's Day 2024. The town is still recovering while the locals are still trying to get over the trauma as they gradually resume their "normal" life which is not easy.

After which, he goes to Tokyo to find out how prepared the city is for a much powerful earthquake that Japan fears the most. And discovers the engineering marvel being constructed in underground Tokyo as a countermeasure for the inevitable day.

A more detailed and technical look into the impressive countermeasures being put in place across Tokyo, both on the ground and beneath it, in anticipating of the big one, including Mt Fuji eruption, tsunami, typhoon, fire and flooding. Japan learn from its past natural disasters to figure out better ways of managing them.

It's interesting to see their systematic approach to solve one problem at a time, from designing buildings to withstand earthquakes, planning the city landscapes to minimize fire from spreading, building more reservoirs, widening the rivers and massive pipelines to prevent flooding. Converting existing buildings for self-sustenance to avoid overwhelming the evacuation centers, and so much more.

One thing for sure, the countermeasures are no half measure at all.
