In the classic Renga / Renku poetry (e.g. Kasen) that is ageku settled in the same season as in the previous spring (bloom) verse - that is, in spring. 'Spring' can be used to refer to spring, the middle of spring or the end of spring in general. In more modern or contemporary Renga / Renku seals (e.g. Shisan), other seasons are also described.

The Japanese haiku developed from the Tanka seal (tanka means short poem or song with grace).

In the second step, the haiku are collected and listed anonymously. In part three, each participant awards points (according to a given system) for the texts (except for his own).
