[Scattered cherry blossoms]
【散り桜】

Cherry blossoms are reminiscent of ``short-lived'' because their flowers fall quickly. Because the samurai were determined to win the war, family crests associated with scattering, ephemeral, and bad luck became distant.

桜は花が散るのが早いため「短命」を連想させます。 侍は戦勝にかけているため、散る、儚い、不吉を連想する家紋は疎遠に。

Japanese martial arts begins and ends with courtesy.
(礼で始まり礼で終わります)
Bowting is a way to convey your sincerity to the other person.
(お辞儀は相手に誠意の心を伝える意)
This consideration for the environment meant confronting the problem samurai faced every day: death.

Osaka Castle, whose moat was filled in during the Osaka Winter Siege, fell on May 8, 1615.

真の忠義とは何であろうか？武士道は主君のために生き、そして死なねばならない。

What is true loyalty? Bushido must live and die for its master.

HARAKIRI⚔
Samurai cuts his own belly to protect his honor.#自決 #自裁 #SAMURAIHONOR
Based on the ancient anatomical belief that the human soul and love reside in the abdomen, it became customary among samurai to bravely cut the abdomen as a way of dying that adhered to Bushido.

I really enjoy seeing these posts showcasing Japanese matchlock guns. Not only do they look cool, they even look cool being fired. The smoke and the muzzle flash make it just completely awesome. I've fired modern day rifles and handguns and stuff like that but I've never gotten the chance to fire something like this. I'd love to try it just to see how it felt. Maybe it's a way to understand the past better as well. Gaining insight on what the samurai of the past would have used, how strong they are, how much kick they have, how they reload, etc. etc. Speaking of the reload and firing, it really looks interesting. I'm not too familiar with how it works but I assume it's muzzle loaded and then the string is used as a fuse? Either way I imagine it's something there are definitely hobbyists for!

大切に受け継がれてきた日本の美、日本刀。

この刀は、大阪冬の陣の前年の1613年に作られました。
日本刀は斬る道具として語られがちですが、息を呑む緊張感の上になり立つその美しさこそが日本刀の魅力です。

名刀は見た人の心を落ち着けます。
刀が精神面で多くの武士を支えてきたことは言うまでもありません。

日本の伝統工芸である「漆」と日本人の代名詞となっている存在「侍」その二つをアクセサリーとして融合したモノがこの「兜リング」。
侍が戦場で身につけた甲冑には漆が塗られていました。
それを再現すべく銀に特殊な方法で漆を塗って仕上げています。日本を訪れた記念として一生の思い出となるはずです。
