If I remember correctly, they have yearly cicadas in Japan. Guess it is just some added detail.
Jacob Williams
Because that is literally what you hear 24/7 if you are nearby fields.

Immersion lost. 90% of pictures tell me Japan is eternally cloudy.

Can confirm cicadas are incessantly fucking noisy and will not shut up. Drove me insane.
That and you walk under trees they are in you can feel them all pissing on you.
Glad I don't live in a fully tropical region anymore.

When you write a Haiku it's common to include some sort of "season" element to it. How do you, in a few syllables, tell the reader that this is Summer? How do you reduce the entire concept of "Summer" into a single, concentrated imagery that elicits the strongest response?
For the Japanese that is the sound of cicadas.
Dylan Brooks
It's cicadas that are obsessed with Japan.
Chase Morris
Because if you literally go suburban in Japan during summer, these fuckers always making skree skree skree sounds; in Japan, it basically represents Summer
Parker Campbell
I don't see the problem, user?
Chase Smith
That's just what it sounds like if you live in a more rural area. Not just in Japan but all over the world, we have shitloads of them here in Germany as well.
Angel Davis
What's that one bird call noise that happens in these scenes or wilderness scenes sometimes?
It's like a really long note.

I've got cicadas where I live too, they aren't as annoying as the jap ones are but the sound is indicative of a ridiculously hot summer day. That's probably what they try to convey to the jap audience.
Carson Ross
kek.looks like it farts to make that sound
Jonathan Gutierrez
You would never understand if you never grew up with them.
Ayden Myers
Those are the two things that make me happy and I dont know why. It seems comfy to me.
