Saya-ate
"Saya-ate", sheath touch is said to have been the most dangerous moment through Shogunate Japan. Two sword sheaths of samurais belonging to rival clans touch on a street brought a bloody scene.
Residents of old samurai quarters are far more patient today. |

Hi Keiichiro,
Nice to have you back on TE after some time. It looks like the Toyo has plenty of space on the left. Question not related to this but it just came into my mind: can Yakuza members in Japan be identified by a certain feature on the outside of their cars???
Regards and keep posting,
Gilbert
Bonsoir.. Sensei
I love your sense of irony and the poetry on suggestion and metaphor....
