Akashi time zone and UTC offset
Akashi keeps JST (9 hours ahead of UTC, UTC+09:00). Its database zone is Asia/Tokyo — worth knowing if you are scheduling anything that has to survive a daylight saving change.
Daylight saving is not observed here, so UTC+09:00 is year-round. Any seasonal drift you notice against another city comes from that city, not from Akashi.
Akashi has roughly 297,279 residents and ranks 58th by population among the Japan cities on this site.
