源氏物語ミュージアムで上映されていたアニメ映画「GENJI FANTASY　ネコが光源氏に恋をした」の舞台にもなっていた「さわらびの道」を宇治川に向かって歩く。

世界文化遺産の「宇治上神社」、「神使のみかえり兎」で有名という「宇治神社」にお詣りしたあと、宇治川に架かる朝霧橋を渡って平等院表参道にある「六条庵」さんで茶そばランチの昼食。お蕎麦のつゆが濃い目でちょっと驚いた。（濃縮つゆを希釈してないのか、こういうもんなのか？）

食事の後は近くの「ますだ茶舗」さんで宇治抹茶ソフトクリームを買う。

「平等院」は人が多く並んでいたので今回はやめて、伊藤久右衛門 平等院店でお土産「宇治抹茶ガトーショコラ 宇治のこみち」を購入後、宇治田原町にある「正寿院（shoujuin）」へ。

到着したときは後30分位の参拝時間しかなく急いで見学。それでも同じような時間に来られる方もいて、特に則天の間にある猪目窓（猪目（いのめ）はハート型に���ている日本の伝統文様の一つとな）では、10組位の若いカップルが写真を撮る順番待ちをしていた。

今の時期は風鈴まつり（wind chime festival）も開催されていて、短い時間だったけれども、楽しむことができた。

Iyemon Café (伊右衛門カフェ)

🍨🍵🍃🍡🥝🍌🍒🍊

I had an absolutely massive craving for matcha ice cream, mochi, and fruits—basically, all the good stuff life has to offer. My sweet tooth had reached dangerous levels of rebellion, so I knew I had to act fast. Thankfully, while wandering through Lalaport, I stumbled upon this charming little café that practically whispered, "You deserve this."

Without hesitation, I ordered the Mitsumame topped with bean jam, matcha ice cream, and fruits (宇治抹茶 ソフトクリーム あんみつ)—a glorious treat for just 890 yen. It looked like a dessert masterpiece crafted by angels with a serious flair for Instagram. The matcha ice cream was this perfect shade of green that practically screamed “authentic,” sitting proudly atop a bed of chewy mochi, juicy fruit slices, and bean jam so silky it could have been used as a spa treatment.

One bite in, and I was transported to dessert heaven. The earthy bitterness of the matcha balanced the sweetness of the bean jam like a symphony in my mouth. The mochi was delightfully chewy, and the fruits added that perfect pop of freshness. I savoured every spoonful like it was a life-or-death situation because, honestly, in that moment, it was. If indulgence were an Olympic sport, I would’ve been gold-medal material.

江戸時代、亀戸には呉服商・伊勢屋彦右衛門の別荘「清香庵」があり、その庭には見事な梅の木々が生えていました。立春の頃になると江戸中から人々が北十間川や竪川を船でやってきて、この地はたいそう賑わったといいます。 特に庭園のなかを数十丈（１５０ｍ）にわたり枝が地中に入ったり出たりする一本の梅が名高く、評判を聞きつけこの地を訪れた水戸光圀は、まるで竜が臥しているようであると感嘆し、その木に「臥竜梅」の名を与えました。また、八代将軍・徳川吉宗は、一旦土に入った枝が、再び地上に這い出る様を生命の循環になぞらえ、「世継ぎの梅」と命名し賞賛したそうです。

The Conquest of Iga, as recorded in Seishū Gunki

同年の冬、伊賀住人福地某が信長の味方になり伊賀追討の兵を要請した｡故に信長は信雄に伊賀を与え、各家臣に諸方から攻め込ませた｡伊勢､名張口は北畠中将信雄である。同じく馬野口は滝川左近将監一益である。長野口は長野上野介信包である。鹿伏兎口は神戸三七信孝である。甲賀山の口は多羅尾久右衛門尉が先陣を受けた｡下口は蒲生忠三郎氏郷である。大和笠置口は筒井順慶である。 伊賀の侍は防ぐ場所を失い其々城にこもった｡信雄は丸山城を落とした｡一益は富益城を落とし､富益氏は討ち死にして滅亡した｡また、具野尾城は落ちず、信孝は柘植城を攻め落とした｡氏郷は土山城を攻め数刻鉄砲合戦があった｡伊賀は大軍を受けてかなわず有るものは討たれ、あるものは降伏しみな信雄の支配下に入った｡故に信雄は丸山城を瀧川三郎兵衛尉に与え、柘植城を池尻平左衛門尉に与えた｡また、仁木友梅（前守護・義視）を取り立て平楽寺城に入れた｡

In the winter of the same year (1581), a certain Iga resident called Fukuchi became Nobunaga's ally, and requested for an army to launch a punitive expedition against Iga. Nobunaga granted Iga to Nobukatsu, and sent vassals to invade from all directions. From Ise, Nabari entrance, was the troops led by Lieutenant General Kitabatake Nobukatsu. At the same time, from Umano entrance, was the troops under Takigawa Sakon no Shōgen Kazumasu. From Nagano entrance, came Nagano Kōzuke no Suke Nobukane (Oda Nobukane). From the Kabuto entrance, Kanbe Sanshichi Nobutaka. The army coming from the entrance of Kōkayama was led by Lieutenant Tarao Kyūemon, while from the exit came Gamō Chūzaburō Ujisato. From the Yamato Kasagi entrance came the troops under Tsutsui Junkei. The samurai of Iga lost their defences, and holed themselves in their respective castles. Nobukatsu felled Maruyama Castle. Kazumasu felled Tomimasu Castle, and the entire Tomimasu clan were destroyed and killed. Gunō Castle did not fall, but Nobutaka attacked and conquered Tsuge Castle. Ujisato attaked Tsuchiyama Castle, and a gunfight lasted for a few hours there. Iga was no match for such a massive force, and some were defeated, while others surrendered themselves under Nobukatsu. After which, Nobukatsu granted Maruyama Castle to Lieutenant Takigawa Saburōbē and Tsuge Castle to Lieutenant Ikejiri Heizaemon. Also, he brought back Nikki Yūbai (the former shugo Nikki Yoshimi) and installed him in Heirakuji Castle.

(Seishū Gunki vol. 8)

In light of the recently released Assassin's Creed trailer, this really needed to be said:

Nobunaga does not invade Iga because he hated "ninjas"/shinobi. Nobunaga never participated in the Iga invasion and never directly led it.

Both are erroneous narratives that are constantly propagated both by Japanese and non-Japanese media, and this is just frustrating at this point. Some newer takes tried to "clean it up" by saying that Nobunaga invaded Iga as part of his nationwide conquest. That's a somewhat less wrong take on it, but if you put Nobunaga in direct command of the army, then it's still incorrect.

Both times the Oda forces attacked Iga, it was under the command of Nobunaga's son, Nobukatsu. After this final conquest, where Iga was thoroughly defeated in 1581, Nobunaga only came later to inspect the region. Everything had already been cleaned up, and the Shinchōkōki even recorded that there were lavish accommodations prepared for Nobunaga to stay in for the occasion.

Now going back to the narrative.

Seishū Gunki is somewhat less reliable than Shinchōkōki in various areas, but it's still a valuable material regardless. The are differences between this account and Shinchōkōki, though. For example, here Nobutaka was also listed as a participant. In the Shinchōkōki, Nobutaka was not listed as an officer that took part in the charge.

Another difference is that while Shinchōkōki corroborated Fukuchi surrendering himself to Nobunaga, it also mentioned that he was actually from Tsuge. Meaning that there was no need to attack and conquer Tsuge. Shinchōkōki also said that one of the Oda vassals went to Tsuge to protect it, and his name was listed as "Fuwa". In the above gunki narrative, this was the castle/region that Nobutaka attacked. It's likely that this part is in error in the gunki, and Nobutaka was not actually present here.

That aside, there has been various theories about why Nobukatsu attacked Iga, and there's an odd story of an Iga resident(s) who requested that the Oda invade his own homeland that was not explained in prior articles that I've seen. This request from the Iga folk themselves was what encouraged Nobunaga to grant permission for an official invasion of Iga, something that highly disapproved of 2 years prior.

This full text in the gunki provides an insight for the possible reason: It's possibly to restore the rightful shugo of Iga to power.

In the last part of the above text, a man named "Nikki Yoshimi" was referenced. The Nikki family was originally the official shugo (governors) of Iga. In a previous chapter of the gunki, it was mentioned that at some point they lost power, and the so-called council leadership of Iga became established.

If you've read the various floating narratives about how Iga is an "independent" society that is free from samurai rulership, this is how that supposedly came to be. The Nikki family were still there. They just got overrun by the people. If the above text is to be believed, the people who rebelled weren't peasants either. They were still considered of "samurai" class (they even own castles), just that they're perhaps of lower status (some texts would call them jizamurai).

If this narrative is actually accurate, then perhaps the men who came to the Oda for help were associates of the Nikki family. What they wanted was perhaps to the get rid of the "insurgents" who had rebelled and snatched power from the "rightful rulers".

So much for the mysticism of the secret "ninja" village and all, huh? It's just more of the typical power struggle between clans that are constantly happening in this time.

Incidentally, this situation is not entirely unique to Iga. A similar situation had occurred in Kaga almost a century prior, where the Ikkō from the Honganji affiliated temples there overthrew the shugo and ruled the land for a very very long time. Like in Iga, the shugo family were actually still there. They just effectively no longer had any power. The Ikkō rule remained until the Oda forces came and got rid of them as well.

Beneath the surface of this porcelain dish lies more than just decoration—it holds centuries of tradition, layered like whispers in the glaze.

This piece, created in 1994 by Imaizumi Imaemon XIII (十三代 今泉今右衛門), is a stunning example of iro-e fukizumi (色絵吹重ね, layered color overglaze with spray effect). A technique developed in the Imaemon kiln, it softens vibrant floral motifs with a mist-like background, creating an ethereal depth reminiscent of morning fog over a Japanese garden.

Here, flowers seem to float in midair, their delicate outlines grounded by deep indigo shadows, achieved through the controlled gradation of pigments. Unlike traditional Ko-Imari (古伊万里) porcelains, where colors are boldly outlined, Imaizumi’s innovation brings a sense of quiet refinement—an interplay of opacity and translucence, precision and spontaneity.

As the 13th generation master of the prestigious Imaemon lineage, he carried forward the artistry of Nabeshima ware (鍋島焼) while elevating it into a new era. Each stroke, each misted layer is not just a display of craftsmanship but a dialogue between past and present, discipline and artistic intuition.

To hold such a piece is to hold time itself, crystallized in porcelain.

Title: meltykiss Pairing: Hakukai Rating: Gen

Summary:

The story of why Kaito is swearing that he's going to get Hakuba the cheapest candy chocolate he can find for valentine's day next year. He'll even give it to him with the receipt. Just mark his words!

It's been so long since I've written the boys! But yes, Valentine's day is right around the corner, so why not? Here's something short, sweet, and fluffy to celebrate.

Speaking of chocolates, my favourite has got to be the matcha nama chocolates from 伊藤久右衛門, or the nama chocolates from Royce. They melt like ice cream on the tongue and is just so delicious. What's yours?
