Well.. in Waikiki. xD

Otherwise, not really.

I prefer Hanami spring season or autumn with the red leaves, summer is too mushi atsui~~~~ for me! May is nice though, warm but not too hot....

I Would suggest July and August are usually very hot and humid on the mainland in Japan. If you are visiting Hokkaido, these months are the best, because the weather is cool and dry there.

I'm going from 29th May to 13th June. I understand it's rainy, but how bad does it get? I didn't want to go when it's TOO hot, I'd rather a little bit of rain. (When it's too hot it makes you tired quicker.)
