#Miki Hirate

[chernobog13]

A stunning poster for The Tale of Zatoichi (1962), the first of the 26-film series starring Shintaro Katsu as the wandering blind swordsman.

The poster also features Shigeru Amachi as Miki Hirate, the ronin with whom Zatoichi befriends and, tragically, must duel; and Masayo Banri as Otane, the woman who falls in love with Ichi. Otane has the distinction of being the only character to appear in three films in the series.

Man o man, I gotta get me one of these for my wall.

O Conto de Zatoichi (1962), dir. Kenji Misumi.

Review originalmente postada: 09/Fev/2023 no Letterboxd.

Devo confessar que fui pego de surpresa, tinha um pré-conceito sobre a franquia do Zatoichi, pelo simples fato de ter tantos filmes, achava que era só filmes baratos de samurai para ganhar dinheiro fácil. Felizmente dei uma chance, percebi que é muito mais do que isso. O filme tem uma ótima fotografia, com enquadramentos que exploram a cegueira do Zatoichi de maneira muito criativa. E não tem essa de filme barato, a produção foi autêntica em recriar um Japão do período Edo. Um dos elementos mais fortes do filme é a atuação do Shintaro Katsu, que tem uma presença que faz jus em encarnar um personagem em tantos filmes.

Outra parte que gostei, é sempre legal de ver como a Yakuza era no Período Edo, era um temor e respeito por samurais, mesmo que samurais estivessem em decadência nesse período. Um exemplo é mesmo um chefe Yakuza com 60 yakuzas do seu lado, temia lutar contra apenas 1 samurai.

Master Swordsman Hirate Miki 1951 Kyotaro Namiki

[ohakosubs]

Amagi Pass, 1983 dir. Haruhiko Mimura

status: complete download here **notes**

- there are a few Japanese cultural concepts that play a key role in understanding some of the story’s main plot points:

・the film heavily references Yasunari Kawabata’s “The Izu Dancer”, wherein a young boy traveling by himself through the mountains of Izu comes across a small traveling theater group. One of them is a young girl, whom he becomes subtly attached to, but never has a chance to get very close to her. It’s a beautiful, short story - definitely check it out if you liked this movie.

・’zouri’ are lightweight Japanese sandals, usually made from straw, that are a lot cooler to wear in summer and a little less formal than the traditional wooden ‘geta’. The ‘takageta’ that Kenzo speaks of are wooden geta that have elevated slats, common footwear for highschool boys at the time. (they’re also not so good for hiking.

・the villagers up at Amagi talk in a very thick Izu dialect. It’s very hard to illustrate the differences between the villagers’ way of speaking and the semi-regular Japanese the Shimoda city folk speak, and I’m not a big fan of English approximation, so I kept it largely subtle (not to mention the acting kind of does a good job of illustrating the difference in character) - but it should be noted.

・”yoroshiku” is a very difficult word to translate, and depends largely on context. It’s a very common word to say in japanese, when you’re asking a favour of someone, or just trying to encourage formal repartee. “~~o yoroshiku” is a common shorthand phrase that usually means something like “I hope that you’ll (take care of this)”, or “I’m counting on you (to...)”. However the instances in the film where this film appears - and it does have a large role in the plot - move too quickly to proper convey the nuances implied in the situation, so with my translation I tried my best to convey the casual frankness of the way it’s used, plus a translation note to add information about its more formal usage/nuance.

・Foot sizes during the period the film is mostly set in were measured in a unit called ‘mon’. The foot size that keeps being mentioned in the film is pronounced as ‘9 1/2 mon’, but I opted to use the modern equivalent of 22.8 centimetres as I thought it’d be easier for modern audiences to make the connection with current foot sizes.

・The traditional song featured heavily in the film is “Ōtone Tsukiya”, or “Moonlit Night in Ōtone”. Originally perfomed by Yoshio Tabata and released on record in 1939, it was probably popular around the time certain parts of the film are set.  The song tells the story of a fencer ronin by the name of Miki Hirate, who came to the aid of a gambler friend in battle by the riverside at Ōtone one night, only to be felled while his friend survived.

UNDERUSED CHARACTER QUESTIONS !

TAGGED BY: @riotingvines​ ( ♡ tenks )

TAGGING: @kntaro​ @repvlsion​ @stvrrynight​ @miupewpew @yoshidakari @hirates

INTRODUCTION NAME: Yoshizawa Miki; prefers Yoshizawa-san if it’s someone she feels a bit of distance with, but if she gets a good vibe or with just other girls of similar age, just Miki. 

AGE: 24

PICTURE/GIF OF YOUR MUSE: there aren’t many gifs of her that can be used in the AU i’m playing her in but have 2 of my fav  gifs of kaoru cos it illustrates so beautifully “get you a girl who can do both”

WHAT WOULD BE THEIR TWITTER NAME? WHAT SORTS OF TWEETS WOULD THEY TWEET? @ carbonmiki is where she is at currently, she tweets music, sneak peeks at projects she’s working on, food pics, cute couplely things as of 2 weeks ago. She also subtweets a lot 笑 because it takes a certain threshold for her to confront something up front.

WHAT’S THEIR FAVOURITE GENRE OF MOVIES? OF MUSIC? she doesn’t know that much about arthouse films despite being in a circle of creatives, so she’ll go see whatever that is showing really. Enjoys a good horror, but she will be peeking around corners for about a week after the film is over. Enjoys a good cathartic cry too, so she indulges in drama films, though she might end up brooding over the film for some time. Music wise, soft electro remixes, urban, R&B vibes are good for her creative moods, but she’d enjoy a good acoustic too. 

WHAT’S ON THEIR TOP QUEUE ON NETFLIX? Terrace House. She likes observing people and things. 

WHAT’S THEIR FAVOURITE SCENT? DO THEY SMELL LIKE THAT? She strays from overly powerful feminine scents, so the candles around her apartment are mostly a mix of spice and floral that tones down the sweetness considerably, leaving just a hint of it in the air. So mostly things that have a stronger wood base, and then lighter tones of florals on top. She does not like fruity scents. Her bath items have somewhat more floral tones because they tend to fade more quickly on the skin, most recently she’s been using rose and peppermint in her bath. Perfume wise, she wears a very light spritz of Love, Chloé, which smells rather warm on her skin, but you’ll have to get up close and personal, because otherwise from a normal distance she smells like paint fumes and cigarettes.

WHAT IS THEIR FAVOURITE SEASON, AND LEAST FAVOURITE SEASON? WHY? Spring is her favourite because it’s her birthday and there’s a lot of life and movement and colour and inspiration. She also suffers heavily from fresh start syndrome and always associate spring with the ability to start on new things (whether or not she follows through is another story). Winter is her least favourite because it shuts her largely introverted self in even more, and she almost permanent has cold hands and feet so she dislikes the cold even more.

APPLE OR ANDROID? Android.

ARE THEY A BOTTOM, TOP OR VERSATILE? Mostly a playful bottom, she would put up a largely halfhearted fight to have power wrestled from her. If she tops, she would still likely be taking instructions from her partner, finding the best way to please, and having less of a dominating/controlling vibe. 

DESCRIBE THEIR MORNING ROUTINE. DO THEY WAKE UP EARLY OR SLEEP IN? DO THEY PRESS THE SNOOZE BUTTON A BUNCH OF TIMES OR DO THEY IMMEDIATELY GET UP? She tends to sleep in more, because she often gets bouts of inspiration in the night rather than in the day, something about the quiet and the solitude and general envelope of the night. But she would get up at a reasonable time if she has engagements, being a very punctual person. She’d wash up, do her usual skincare, light eye and cheek makeup. She would style her hair depending on what she had on for the day--more of a lazy comb through for studio days, and slightly more carefully styled with soft wax and a small curler if she had to meet with clients and patrons.

Brush, ink illustration inspired by the character Miki Hirate from TheTale of Zatoichi

[chernobog13]

The Tale of Zatoichi (Zatoichi Monogatari) (1962).

This is the one that started the 26-film series, along with the 100-episode television series.

We are introduced to Ichi, a lowly anma (blind masseur) and yakuza with an uncanny ability to fight with a sword. He's also amazingly good at gambling, as he can hear how the dice fall.

Ichi gets hired to help out a yakuza gang in a brewing war with a rival gang over territory. The opposing gang, knowing Ichi's reputation with the sword, hires the ronin Hirate to aid their side. And, as fate would have it, Ichi and Hirate meet and become friends, despite knowing they are on opposite sides.

Ichi also meets Otane, a young woman engaged to a yakuza, but wishing to escape her fate. Otane finds in Ichi a man she truly loves and admires, and she's willing to leave her village and travel with Ichi for the rest of her life.

This film is much more deliberately paced than the rest of the series. That's understandable, as there's a lot of story to present, but the pace also helps to ramp up the tension. This film plays more as a drama until the gang war finally erupts, and then there's sword fighting a plenty.

Ichi himself is such an interesting, likable and engaging character that you don't mind the lack of action, because you're spending time getting to know him. And as the climax approaches, with the odds continually getting stacked against him, you're worried that there's no way he can possibly survive.

There is no colossal battle featuring Ichi in lone combat against a small army of enemies. That would be introduced in the sequel, The Tale of Zatoichi Continues, six months later. That set piece would become the signature of the series, with the stakes - and amount of enemies to fight - growing with each subsequent film.

[chernobog13]

ZATOICHI MONOGATORI aka THE TALE OF ZATOICHI 

Released April 12, 1962.

The first of a series of 25 films that ran from 1962 through 1973, followed by a 100-episode television series, and a final film in 1989, all starring the inimitable Shintaro Katsu as Zatoichi the blind swordsman.

This film is more deliberately paced than the bulk of the series.  However, It does a wonderful job of introducing Ichi and the world he lives in.  Many of the mainstays of the series are seen here for the first time: Ichi winning at dice despite his blindness, Ichi’s intolerance for yakuza who trod all over the common folk, Ichi’s lightning-fast swordplay, and his strong sense of justice.

The film is loosely based on a short story from 1948 by Kan Shimozawa.  That story gave the reader just the barest details about Zatoichi,; he’s more of a mystery than anything else.  Luckily, Katsu-san was up to the challenge of fleshing the character outing bringing him fully to life.

The film - and Ichi himself - proved to be so popular that the sequel, The Tale of Zatoichi Continues (Zoku Zatoichi Monogatori) was released exactly six months later.
