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⚔

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。

・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.

As Matabei waits for the following troops to arrive, he says, ``The Tokugawa spearhead troops have already arrived.''
Realizing that his plan was doomed, Matabei attacked the Tokugawa vanguard without waiting and was killed.
Kanesō Usuda, who arrived after Matabei, was also killed in the battle.
Mouri Katsunaga's and Sanada Nobushige's troops arrived shortly afterward, but it was too late...Toyotomi's forces retreated to Osaka Castle.

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

Wabi and sabi are words to appreciate Japanese aesthetic sensibilities, which represents “beauty within simplicity and imperfection.”

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…

The tea ceremony teaches us everything that is important.
大切なことは全て茶道が教えてくれる

Samurai tea ceremony enthusiasts enthusiastically enjoy the tea ceremony and are obsessed with collecting specialty items. Nobunaga becomes happy by ``hunting specialties,'' such as offering famous tea utensils and forcing them to buy them.
武家茶道は熱心に茶の湯を嗜み、名物の収集に夢中に…。信長は名物の茶器を献上させたり、強制的に買い上げるなどの「名物狩り」を行い悦になる

[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.

「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.

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。

"Bushido is found in death."
He was willing to die for a certain purpose. If you always act and die with the intention of dying every morning and evening, you will never fail in your life and will be able to fulfill your family duties.
If I were asked to choose between life and loyalty, I would not spare my life in the slightest.

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。
