A takeout specialty store filled with passion Kobukuro will celebrate their 25th anniversary in 2024. The store "September 8" was opened by member Shunsuke Kuroda, expressing gratitude to fans and giving back to his hometown of Sakai. Located in Sakai Ginza Shopping Street. This is precisely the place where the duo sang during their street days. The store name is derived from their formation anniversary, and inside, there is a space featuring artwork from their album "QUARTER CENTURY," released to commemorate the 25th anniversary, making it a must-visit "sacred place" for fans. The main menu item is the exquisite "Yakiniku Sandwich," created in collaboration with the extremely popular Sakai restaurant "Yakiniku Osamu-chan" and the long-established "Tezukayama Poire," founded in 1969.

In Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture, at Haseiji Temple. While I often find myself looking up to capture the beauty of the autumn leaves, I was suddenly struck by the sight of maple leaves scattered on the stone steps when I paused to look down. The black of the stone steps and the green of the moss contrasted beautifully with the red and orange of the maple leaves, creating a stunning autumn scene that captivated my heart.

In late autumn 2023, I decided to visit Minoh Falls. I thought it would be a short walk, but I found it was farther from the nearest station than I expected, making the walk a bit challenging. However, walking while enjoying the colorful autumn leaves under the clear blue sky was refreshing and lifted my spirits. When I finally reached the falls, I was even able to see a rainbow, making it an unforgettable and wonderful experience.
