Maple leaves are famously celebrated at the end of their short life, when they bow out in spectacular yellows and reds...but their appearance in Kyōto is also cause for cheer.

Shinryoku (新緑 'new green') describes this period of dazzling fresh leaves (and is not limited to maple trees).

fresh new leaves-
the cat and the crow

Jōjakkō-ji (常寂光寺) is the realm of Kurobee (くろべえ), a gorgeous black cat that lives in the ticket hut.
