The Kyote

We are an informative, fun and free newsletter explaining the past week in Japan.

What does The Kyote (rhymes with note) mean? Well, in spoken Japanese, some people have a tendency to drop the final “o” sound from “Kyoto”, the city we publish from.

Every Sunday at 19:00 JST you’ll get the new edition of The Kyote sent directly to your email inbox.

Our goal is provide such an insane amount of value that reading us becomes part of your weekly routine.

Comments are always welcome, just reply directly to the newsletter when it arrives in your inbox.

We are also found on X/Twitter here.
