Sakura (cherry blossom) 桜 花見

A video I made in northern Japan to celebrate the explosion of cherry blossoms after a long winter. The song is called "sakura" which means cherry blossoms and the two kanji that pop up mean "cherry blossom" and later "flower viewing."

@TheMohanasBuzz Which one[s]?

[karunamrita]

Hana-mi should be translated as 'Flower Gazing.'

[heatslap]

@karunamrita There is no definitive "should" when translating something poetic. You can have an opinion but here is why I used "flower viewing:" 1) I was told that translation in Japan by Japanese who used their own dictionaries. 2) Mayjay, Apple's dictionary, my Cannon wordtank, etc. use "flower viewing."

3) 見 is not limited to 花見 (flower viewing) but also works with other things, like 月見 (moon-viewing) or 雪見(snow viewing). 4) In Japan no one "gazes;" they keep them in view as they drink お酒.

I came here to troll about Sakura from Naruto cuz she's lame but I just realized that onlything lamer than her is a plant that got named at her

[heatslap]

@krrreten Sakura (in Naruto) is frustratingly lame in some parts of the series. It depends on how far along you are. That said, I still like the flowers and the socializing and drinking that takes place under them across Japan every year.

[AddictedToAnime1]

@krrreten 1) Sakura was actually named after the tree 2) I also am a Sakura hater 3) plants keep you alive, so I wouldnt be dissing them, and 4) Don't blame the video because you don't like it. Remember, you clicked it. You could of just said wrong video and found a new one.
