Good heavens! That's really all one can say...
I know that people associate Japan with spring and the cherry blossoms, but I've always associated it with the autumn. It's probably because in my formative teen years, like everybody else in the late 90's, I went through an anime phase and I and my cousin got hold of a cache of anime during one particularly colorful October. Plus, one anime's plot revolved around it being autumn as well. Thus, though everyone else thinks of spring when they think of Japan, and I even visited Japan during the summer... In my mind it's eternally late October in Japan.
