Kizuna Calendar

Know if today is a good day - to visit, gift, or travel in Japan.

Should you do it today?

Kizuna is a Japan holiday and etiquette assistant for people who live, work, or travel between cultures. In one tap you get a clear yes, no, or "wait a couple of days" - based on national holidays, long weekends, and the etiquette windows that shape Japanese business life.

No fluff. No missed public holidays. No accidental rudeness.

What Kizuna does

Today, in one glance

See instantly whether today is a national holiday, part of a long weekend, or a moment where etiquette matters. One card, one answer, no reading required.

A full holiday calendar

Browse Japanese public holidays by month and year. Long weekends are highlighted so you can plan travel and meetings around them - not into them.

Scenario advice you can act on

Pick a scenario - client visit, gift giving, return gift, business trip - and Kizuna tells you whether the date is a good fit, why, and which alternative dates would work better.

Etiquette cards, written from a Japanese point of view

Short, practical, culture-aware notes - not machine translations. Learn when to send omiyage, how to time an okaeshi, and how to read the calendar the way a Japanese colleague would.

Reminders before it is too late

Golden Week, Obon, Oseibo, Ochugen - the moments that quietly shape the year. Kizuna nudges you in advance so preparation happens on your terms.

Who it is for

Business travelers, expats, and culturally curious visitors who want to move confidently through Japan. If you have ever paused before scheduling a meeting or sending a gift, Kizuna is built for you.
