"Bushido is found in death." Experience the life and death of a samurai in SAMURAI Calligraphy. Samurai calligraphy (calligraphy of resignation) is a calligraphy in which a samurai looks back on his life when he foresees his death and writes his last words on earth with a brush. In the Warring States Period, before the last great battle of the war, the battle of Osaka, SAMURAI foresaw his death, looked back on his life so far, and left one last character on the world's largest calligraphy paper. “武士道とは死ぬこととみつけたり” 侍の生と死のあり方をSAMURAI書道で体験します。 SAMURAI書道（辞世の書）とは、侍が死を予見したときにこれまでの人生を振り返り、この世での最後の文字として筆で書き残すもの。 戦国時代、最後の大戦である大坂の陣という戦を前に、SAMURAIは死を予見して、これまでの人生を振り返り、世界最大の書道紙に最後のひと文字を残しましょう。

【In admiration of the first foreigner who became a Samurai】 Have you ever heard of a samurai named "Yasuke"? About 440 years ago, Yasuke became a vassal under Oda Nobunaga and was later granted samurai status. What is surprising is that he was an exotic man of African origin. Yasuke left his mark on the pages of Japanese history as "the first foreigner to become a samurai.

Osaka no Jin⚔Before participating in the war, there was an angel at Osaka Castle with a free hug sign hanging from his neck. The samurai refused the angel's hug, not wanting to taint it... and the angel made a sad face. The expression on his face is like watching a loved one die right in front of your eyes. The samurai wanted to protect this purity. However, he could not say anything lightly to the angel whose whole body was crying. The angel said as he wiped away his tears as if he had distilled only trust and goodwill towards others. "Thank you very much for today... but... Samurai-san and I... are not... friends yet." Angel was desperate. ``How can I become your friend?'' He handed me a homemade shuriken origami. His hands were shaking. The samurai had no words to answer, and was unable to look into the angel's eyes... A stifling voice came out of the man's mouth as he remained face down. The samurai was crying. Then, he gently hugged the angel. 大阪の陣⚔参戦前に大阪城で首からフリーハグの看板を下げている天使がいた。 天使が求めるハグを、侍は汚したくない思いで断った… すると天使は悲しい顔をした。 大切な人が目のまえで死んでいくのを見るような表情である。 侍はこの純真さを守ってやりたかった。 だが、全身で泣いている天使に軽々しい言葉はいえなかった。 人への信頼や善意だけを蒸留したよう天使は涙を拭きながらいった。 「今日は… どうも… ありがとう… でも、まだ… お侍さんと… 僕は… お友達じゃ…… ないんですよね」 天使は必死だった。 「お友達には… どうしたら… なれますか」とお手製の手裏剣の折り紙を手渡してくれた。 彼の手は震えていた。 侍には返す言葉がなく天使の目を見ることができずに… 伏せたまま男の口から、押し殺すような声が出ていた。 侍は泣いていた。 そして、天使をそっと抱きしめた。

"We must never forget who we are, our history and our traditions."

The blue-eyed samurai who came to Japan from Mexico with a yearning for the LAST SAMURAI had a Bushido experience.

The muddy creek does not reflect the moon's light The muddy stream does not reflect the light of the moon. The metaphor of the moon reflected perfectly in clear water is often used to describe this heightened but unhinged state of mind. The metaphor of the moon, fully reflected in the clear waters, is often used to describe this heightened but unwavering state of mind.

I, Kohei, will thoroughly train, exercise, and conduct myself through the experience of mastering Bushido. Through these experiences, I will become a SAMURAI Kohei through life and death!

【SAMURAI HONOR Staff Resignation】 - A gem of a brush that touches the transience so much that it hurts - ⚔Way⚔ Traditional Japanese "martial arts" include kendo, judo, karate, and sumo wrestling, all of which contain the word "do." "Path" is a process, a process. It can also be rephrased as a way of life. The average life expectancy of a samurai during the Sengoku period is said to be about 42 years old. The average life expectancy for men in Japan today is about 81.5 years, and for women it is 87.6 years... Compared to today's lifespan, SAMURAI had only about half the time, and they were running through an era when they didn't know what their life would be like tomorrow 　 In other words, "martial arts" is about finding and practicing your own way of life, along with aiming for mastery of techniques. Also, the SAMURAI who are scattered at a young age ... They say life is fleeting. It painfully reminds us of its transience in the words of our predecessors, and when I read it, it makes me think about the rest of my life.

オ・モ・テ・ナ・シの向上のためにスタイル研修 武士道を極める体験 SAMURAIは鍛錬・行使・身の処し方などを徹底します。 それらを生と死のあり方を通じて体験していただきます。 名誉の観念は外聞や面目などの言葉で表されるが、裏を返せばすべて「恥」を知ることである。 「恥ずかしいことをするな」「対面を汚すな」「人に笑われるぞ」武士の間では羞恥心を知ることが幼少の教育においてまずはじめに行われた。 Style training to improve OMOTE NASI Experience to master Bushido At SAMURAI, we thoroughly train, exercise, and carry ourselves. You will experience them through the ways of life and death. The concept of honor is expressed in words such as appearance and face, but on the other hand, it all comes down to knowing ``shame.'' ``Don't do anything embarrassing.'' ``Don't make your face dirty.'' ``People will laugh at you.'' Among the samurai, learning about shame was the first step in childhood education.

"Every time morning comes, a samurai prepares himself to die, and in the silence of the morning, he imagines himself being struck by lightning, burned by fire, and slashed with a sword or spear. I wonder if I can remember that the outside of the front door is the world of death." ... It's ⬆ difficult as expected, but if you want to prepare for the quality ↗ of the service that satisfies the customer and the solution of the "customer's problem", you can fantasize about it as many times as you want... As many times as you want... There is only practical practice. Now that the second inbound is in full swing, there are countless stores that are running an experience business targeting foreign visitors to Japan ... However, there are almost no shops where there are staff who can interpret. Our assistant staff are all at a level where they can have daily conversations in English (some Chinese, Korean, and Sinhala are also available), so foreign visitors to Japan can receive O-Mo-Te Na-Si with peace of mind.

Ryukyu Indigo Dyeing Fabric / Okinawa Craft Forest It is an Okinawa craft forest in Tomigusuku, Tomigusu City, Ryukyu indigo dyeing experience workshop. A dye called mud indigo is made from a plant called Ryukyu indigo, and you can experience weaving using yarn dyed with it. It has been used as one of the dyes for various traditional textiles in Okinawa since the Ryukyu Dynasty. I will weave the yarn using a hand-made loom, but at first I had a hard time getting the point, but it turned out quite well ^^ (It's a coaster) I would be happy if there were people who would support Okinawa's traditional crafts through this experience corner.
