You pulled me out... you became my body... you became the master of the sword.

A thumbnail is only a thumbnail, but it is the first point of contact for the user

For today's viewers, who are hungry for stimulation and easily bored, it is important not only to make them watch today's activities, but also to provide them with stimulation within "one episode" so that they do not leave the site halfway through.

Some users may click on the video and say, "What's going to happen? The "thumbnail" of the video is definitely a factor in this decision. In other words, the thumbnail is the look, the appearance, the face of the person of the opposite sex.
If the title of the video includes words such as "Cursed or possessed" or "Too much flying" (too conscious of Rurouni Kenshin), which make people expect something happening, or if the thumbnail shows a woman's cleavage, the number of views is likely to increase.

For those who are interested in "samurai," such as sword fighters and reki-fat people, "cleavage" means...

I think it's a real "Yokatana" like the god Anubis, who controls the person who holds him or her as a swordsman. Even I am excited.

Just as important as the thumbnail is to have an eye-catching, radical and catchy title. In addition, making it impossible for fans to go to sleep because they are so excited and worried about their fantasies is a great way to differentiate yourself.

I agonize over a new story every day to keep not only the users but also myself occupied.... Well, it's hard to think, but thanks to the 2 million drawers I have, it's not a problem at the moment ⚔.

I would like to thank the production team for their ability to take my fantasies and images and quickly materialize them.

(Thank you ♡♡♡♡♡

たかがｻﾑﾈｲﾙ、されどｻﾑﾈｲﾙはユーザーにとって最初の接点

刺激に飢え、飽きやすい現代の視聴者に対しては、本日の活動内容を観させるだけでなく“1話”の中でも途中離脱させないための刺激を散りばめることが重要だ。

「これ、どうなるの」「やってみたい」と動画をクリックするユーザーもいるだろう。その判断に働きかけているのが、間違いなく動画の“サムネイル”とういう存在。即ち、異性選びにおけるルックス、外見、顔がサムネイルだ。
動画のタイトルに「呪いや祟が」や「天翔け過ぎ」（るろうに剣心を意識しすぎ）といったハプニングを期待させる言葉や、サムネイルで女性の胸の谷間が映っていると再生回数は伸びやすいんです。

SAMURAIに興味がある層の、刀剣◯子や歴◯にとって“胸の谷間”にあたるのは…

本当の“自らを握った者を剣士として操る”アヌビス神並みの「妖刀」ではないでしょうか!? 私でも((o(´∀｀)o))ﾜｸﾜｸする。

サムネイルと同じくらいで大事なのは、人目をひく過激でキャッチーなタイトルをつけること。さらに、ファンの妄想をふくらませ悩んで興奮して寝ることができなくすることは、差別化に最適ィィィ

ユーザーだけでなく己も飽きさせない為に毎日、新しいネタを悶々と…。まぁ、考えるのは大変ですが、私には200万の引き出しがあるので、おかげでいまのところは問題ありません⚔

私の妄想やイメージを、サクッと具現化してくれる制作陣には

SAMURAI, a man of ambition (a person with determination), strikes the heart and resonates the soul. Pursuing every single stroke for a lifetime, I acquired a 1.8-shaku Japanese drum that represents Japan⚔

志ある武の人（覚悟ある者）即ちSAMURAIが打つは心、響くは魂。一瞬一打を生涯追求する、日本を代表する和太鼓1.8尺を手に入れた⚔

From an early age, a warrior learns to distinguish between the bravery of a litterateur and the true courage of "great valor". Mothers send their children to expose their bodies to the cold winter weather and to see the horrific sights of execution sites. My father teaches me how to use a sword from an early age. He starts with a wooden sword, and when he attains the age of 15, he is allowed to carry a serious weapon. At that time, he becomes aware of his self-respect and his sense of responsibility for carrying a dangerous weapon in the street.

武士は幼少のころから匹夫の勇と、真の勇気「大勇」の区別を学びます。母は冬の寒空の中、肉体をさらさせたり、処刑場の恐ろしい光景を見に行かせます。父は幼少のころから刀の使い方を教えます。まずは木刀から始まり、15歳で元服すると真剣を携帯しての行動を許します。その時、彼が自覚するのは自尊心と、危険な凶器を往来で持ち歩くことに対する責任感です。

辞世の筆/The Book of Resignation

A "resignation calligraphy" is a brush stroke that a samurai writes down as his last words in this life when he foresees his death.
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

Shame is the basis of moral consciousness, and honor in Bushido is the basic virtue for pursuing aesthetics as a person.
武士道における名誉とは、人としての美学を追究するための基本の徳である。
Honor in Bushido means respecting one's name and living a noble life without shame.

〜Our Staff〜

・Name : Map Man
・Job Title : Instructor
・Specialization : Management
・About him : Map Man has taken the relatively conservative philosophy of Japanese martial arts and traditional culture and arranged it in a way that foreigners can imagine.

・Favorite historical figure : Kanichiro Yoshimura
・Ambition : To preach Bushido to people all over the world.

この幸村、ただ、命を長らえているだけの処を召し出され、武士としての面目を立てていただいた身。このご恩、土地や金子などに到底変えられない。
“日本の半分をもらっても寝返るつもりはない！”

This Yukimura was summoned to a place where he was simply trying to prolong his life, and was given honor as a samurai. This kindness cannot be replaced by land or money.
I have no intention of switching sides even if I receive half of Japan.

Harakiri(seppuku)
"Bushido is found in death."
“武士道とは死ぬこととみつけたり”

If I were asked to choose between life and loyalty, I would not spare my life in the slightest.
命か忠義かを選べと問われたなら、自分の命など微塵も惜しくはない

Nobushige Sanada (Yukimura) was found by the enemy as he rested against a tree in the precincts of Yasui Shrine during the summer campaign in Osaka, and died in battle, leaving behind his last words, ``Take credit for this head.'' …

真田信繁（幸村）は大阪夏の陣、安居神社境内で木にもたれかかり、身体を休ませていたところを、敵方に発見され「この首を手柄にされよ」という最後の言葉を残して討ち死に…

[Osaka no Jin⚔Sacred place pilgrimage] There is also a well said to be Sanada's loophole at Isshinji Temple, right in front of Yasui Shrine where Nobushige Sanada died.
The “Sanada family = loophole” also exists in the famous Ueda Castle and Yasui Shrine/Sanada Maru, so it is a must-see for pilgrims to sacred places.

【大坂の陣⚔聖地巡礼】
真田信繁が最後を迎えた安居神社の目の前の一心寺にも真田の抜け穴といわれる井戸があります⚔

“真田家＝抜け穴”は、他に有名な上田城や安居神社/真田丸にも抜け穴が残っていますので、聖地巡礼に必ず。

【Pilgrimage to connected places of Osaka no Jin❷Chausuyama】

「かかれかかれの越前兵、たんだかかれの越前兵」

During the summer campaign, Tadanao Matsudaira, who was scolded by Ieyasu, boldly attacked Sanada Yukimura's main camp on Mt. Chausu.
夏の陣、家康の叱責を受けた松平忠直は茶臼山の真田幸村本陣を果敢に攻めた。
#どうする家康 #真田幸村 #豊臣

【大坂の陣 縁の地巡り/Visiting the grounds of Osaka no Jin】

Japan's oldest temple, Shitennoji, was burnt down during the Winter Siege, leaving behind its stone torii gate, and during the Summer Siege, a fierce battle took place at the South Gate.
日本最古の寺の四天王寺は冬の陣で石の鳥居を残し焼失し、夏の陣では南大門で激しい戦いが行われた。

Nishijin brocade is a luxury material that has been used for costumes of the upper classes.

BUSHIDO⚔Acquisition
You will also experience the weight of a Japanese equivalent of a real sword with a mock sword. You will learn the basic usage of the sword (drawing the sword [Battou] and stowing the sword [Noutou]).

It reminds me of the way SAMURAI and his friends used to walk around Samurai Road (Tsumago-juku).

かつてサムライロード（妻籠宿）で、SAMURAI達が歩き過ごした様子が思い浮かぶようだ。

SAMURAI quenches his thirst with spring water at Samurai Road during his trip.
旅の途中サムライロードにて、湧き水で喉の乾きを癒やすSAMURAI

【Continue to protect with Bushido spirit】
Tsumago-juku, where the townscape from the Sengoku period remains intact, has come to be known as the Samurai Road among foreign tourists.
This area strictly adheres to the three principles of ``Do not sell, do not lend, and do not destroy.'' Bushido was inherited even by modern people. They are also samurai.

【武士道精神で守続け】
戦国時代の町並みがそのまま残る妻籠宿は、外国人観光客の間でサムライの道と呼ばれるように。
この一帯は「売らない・貸さない・こわさない」の3原則を徹底して守っています。現代人にも武士道は引き継がれていた。彼らも侍である。

[Harakiri at Samurai Road]
I tried to reproduce the logo pattern in live action.

【サムライロードで腹切り】

【SAMURAI⚔ROAD】
Nakasendo is a road that connects Edo and Kyoto, also known as the "Samurai Road." Nowadays, people from all over the world are flocking to this road to walk it once. Enjoy the charm of "Samurai Road" that never ceases to attract inbound foreigners.

“サムライロード”と呼ばれる、江戸と京都を結んだ街道「中山道」。 今、この道を一度歩いてみたいと、世界中の人が詰め掛けています。 インバウンド外国人を魅了してやまない“サムライロード”の魅力をどうぞ。

【COMING SOON】
Experience to master Bushido
At SAMURAI, we thoroughly train, exercise, and carry ourselves. You will experience them through the ways of life and death.

Kiyomasa Kato, a samurai who was known as a master castle builder during the Sengoku period, built Kumamoto Castle on the most beautiful and magnificent stone wall in Japan, using the most advanced technology and labor at the time.

戦国の築城名人として知られた加藤清正は、当時の最先端技術と労力を投じて日本一美しく壮大な石垣の上に熊本城を築城させた。

[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.

❺Deathbed calligraphy
Deathbed calligraphy is something a person writes down with a brush as their last words in this world when they foresee their death and look back on their life so far.

❻HARAKIRI
“I found out "Bushido" is dying.”
He is willing to die for a certain purpose. If you act every morning and evening as if you were going to die, and if you are willing to die, you will be able to fulfill your family duties without complaining for the rest of your life.

Experience to master Bushido
At SAMURAI, we thoroughly train, exercise, and carry ourselves. You will experience them through the ways of life and death.

❸BUSHIDO⚔learn
Feel the weight of Japanese swords with a mock sword. Learn the basics of how to use a sword (drawing out the sword 【batto】 and sheathing the sword 【sheathing】).
Next, we will learn the basic forms of sword fighting.

❹BUSHIDO⚔master
For foreigners who admire SAMURAI, this is a dream-like experience.
Put on a helmet and armor, become a samurai master, and go to battle.
