Back in February, I went to Sapporo with my friends to see the Snow Festival. On the first day we were there, my friend and I went for coffee and stumbled across this place
It’s down the street from the TV Tower in Odori; 2 stops on the train. We’d have walked if it wasn’t so cold
Cafe: POP/iN
Location: Sapporo, Hokkaido

Weebsmas Day 4 - Japan's Winter Wonderland
On the fourth day of Weebsmas, four foxes hopped in the snow. One mystical thing about Japan is how elegant it is when it snows. Many anime and movies have showcased the nation as a gorgeously deadly climate. But in the modern-day reality of Japan there are many special things that happen in the snowy season. With the culture of beauty in silence comes an active and lively setting.

Class A field trip around Japan - Day 1
In order to celebrate 100 million copies of the manga, the WSJ promo team initiated an ad campaign in local papers around Japan between 4/4-10/4, featuring the Class A kids in different famous locations. The art is all edited from existing manga panels.
Intro:
Aizawa is explaining that the class will go on a field trip around Japan to express gratitude to the people who support hero activities.
EDIT: In the meantime I saw someone already made translations / posted all of this. Here is their post with translations (can't reblog it, as I think I'm blocked by them). I'll leave my post up anyway because of the higher quality pictures and because I worked hard on it.
Day 1:
Aizawa: Are you guys excited?
Iida, Deku and Ochako are in Sapporo Hitsujigaoka Observation Hill at the statute of Dr Clark, referring to his famous quote "Boys, be ambitious"
Tokoyami, Tsuyu and Mineta are tasting Aomori's famous apples.
Bakugou, Kaminari, Sero and Hagakure are at the Namahage snow festival. His classmates are teasing Bakugou that he looks like one of the demons.
Shoto and Koda are in Iwate, where Shoto is doing the wanko soba challenge (it's an all you can eat soba tradition).
Shoto: You can eat as many bowls as you want
Endeavor: Shotoooooooooo!!!!
Koda: Todoroki!! Your father wants to eat together with you too!!
Shoto: The check please.
Aizawa, Mina, Shoji and Ojirou are on Tashirojima, an island famous for its cats
Momo, Jirou and Kaminari are in Tateishokuji Temple Yamagata. They refer to the quote of Matsuo Basho - "The silence and the voice of the cicadas that penetrate the rocks."
Kirishima, Sato and Aoyama are in Fukushima, looking at traditional Okiagari Koboshi dolls, which represent perseverance; even if they are knocked over, they stand right back up. There is also a reference to Bakugou's quote to Kirishima about how being able to stand means he's strong.

JAPAN TRIP - DAYS 17-19
In the past three days, we had a calm and enjoyable time. One entire day was spent exploring Sapporo, and we were lucky enough to visit the remarkable Shiroishi Shrine (白石神社). This shrine is quite special as it is dedicated to a deity associated with competitions, making it the perfect place to seek good fortune in any competitive endeavor. What truly captivated me about this shrine was its enchanting setting. Upon turning to the right of the main shrine and descending the stairs, we discovered a serene garden overlooking a peaceful pond 💟
As part of our Sapporo excursion, we made sure to explore the Odori Park (大通公園1丁目). Known for its tranquil atmosphere, Odori Park is a serene haven. However, it also serves as a versatile venue for Hokkaido's most celebrated seasonal events. From what we learnt, throughout the year, Odori Park hosts a multitude of festivities that showcase the distinct charm of each season. In winter, the park transforms into a magical wonderland for the Snow Festival, where intricate snow sculptures capture the imagination of visitors. During the springtime, the park blossoms with the vibrant Lilac Festival, filling the air with a delightful fragrance. The lively YOSAKOI Soran Festival and beer garden enliven the summer months, drawing people together for energetic performances and refreshing beverages. And as autumn arrives, the park becomes a gathering place for the Autumn Festival, where a diverse array of Hokkaido cuisines tempt the taste buds of eager attendees 🌹
Excitement fills the air as we make preparations for our upcoming weekend trip to Kyoto ❤️
