"This is Chikuma Ishida reporting for the Colony News Service from Planet Kyushu. As you can see from the video feed above, it's that time of season again on Planet Kyushu. The cherry blossoms that Kyushu is so famous for are in full bloom once again, creating this spectacular sight.
The cherry blossom blooming season comes once a year in Kyushu at around this time of year. The cherry blossoms are a bit late this year, but the locals remain unfazed as they carry out the annual Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Festival. Look out for festival stalls and traditional Kusarian clothes amongst the falling cherry blossoms at Kyushu Metropolitan Park and the rural farming districts that dot Kyushu's landscape.
Tourism for the entire month is set to increase by 50% as tourists from the all the houses come to catch this wonderful sight and couples come to enjoy the cherry blossoms with their loved ones. It is a well known fact that many people, both Kusarian and foreigners like to host weddings under the cherry blossom trees. And that trend hasn't gone down despite the earlier war with Bretonia and the appearance of Gallia.
So come down to Kyushu, be it to enjoy the falling cherry blossoms, or to enjoy the Sakura Festival and don't forget to bring your family, friends and loved ones.
