Week of 4/7 – 4/13

花見 (Hanami) in わさび (Wasabi)!

This week in Wasabi, spring was officially in full swing!  The festival of Hanami in Animal Crossing: New Leaf has begun, and that means that cherry blossoms can be seen floating through the air for several days this week.  Mayor Neko cheekily wore a leaf mask to celebrate the flower viewing festival.

PUBLIC WORKS UPDATE

Mayor Neko is sad to report that there are no new Public Works updates as of the time of print.  The current project, Central Bridge, is somewhat expensive and has not yet been fully funded.  All donations are welcome!  We still need to raise about ฿50,000 to complete the project.  Estimated time of completion is now next week.

NEW DLC AVAILABLE

Got your number 2 pencils ready?  Good, because the latest DLC from the Campus series is what the Wasabi News has dubbed the “Pencil Screen.”  Made of an assortment of sharpened pencils in various colors, this screen is pretty cool looking!  You can use it to block the doorway to the secret chambers in your home!

MAYOR NEKO MISSES FISHING TOURNEY

Gah!  Our beloved Mayor Neko was nowhere to be found during this week’s Fishing Tournament on 4/13.  The residents of Wasabi tried to wait for her but as time ticked on, the villagers decided to participate without her.  That being said, it is unclear what sort of Tournament was held this week.  Mayor Neko was apparently traveling on this day and was not able to check into Wasabi until long after the Tourney had ended.  Please congratulate Agent S, who was the winner of the Fishing Tournament of April!  Don’t worry, Mayor Neko, there will be a new Tournament next month.  Just don’t FORGET this time!
