Journey of Honour / Kabuto (1991)

Mayeda (Sho Kosugi) is a loyal retainer of Tokugawa Ieyasu (Toshiro Mifune) who won the Battle of Sekigahara. Unforunately, he lost his wife and son during the battle, as they were trying to protect the son of Tokugawa, Yorimune (Kane Kosugi) from enemy capture.

Tokugawa sense that a new war is approaching and sends Mayeda with Yorimune to Spain to acquire more muskets from King Philip III (Christopher Lee), much to the agitation of a Spanish Lord, Pedro (David Essex), who doesn't want to sell weapons to non-believers.

It makes matters worse, when his to soon to be wife, an English Princess, Cecilia (Polly Walker) is intrigued by Mayeda. She wants to escape the arranged marriage and travel to the East with Mayeda to Japan but Mayeda is torn between her and his duty to the Shogun.

After watching Shogun 2024, I want them to remake this movie! It's set around the same period where the Catholic Spanish and Portuguese are taking a strong interest in Asia, and Japan itself. Would be cool to see a Samurai and a Conquistador duel!

“honor is not dead so long as he lives in the hearts of men”

“life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination”

“You are not worse for your association with the world, but it is better for its association with you”

Three stormlight quotes that genuinely help me move in my day to day life

Can we talk about the difference in how Peter's alcoholism and depression was handled in vol 3 in contrast to Thor's in endgame??? Like hello?!?!? For a millisecond I was worried they were gonna treat Peter like a joke but immediately they showed us the worry in all the guardians for his state, Nebula carried him and put him in bed and they all make sure he was ok, and even later they were talking about how worried they are and how they can help him, no jokes about his physical condition or anything like that and him being passed out drunk wasn't framed as funny but as heartbreaking and also they showed us Nebula being rightfully mad at Peter's actions and him taking responsibility on it and started trying to heal and becoming better, they all love him so much I just can't

Based on all the dramas I've seen, the most dangerous place to be in the jianghu, perhaps in the whole three realms and four continents, is at a wedding.

It’s been a while since I’ve done any Frieren musings but I’m so, so incredibly sappy and with the drop of the beautiful “children aren’t the only ones that need comfort” scene I just have the immovable headcanon in my brain that Frieren and Himmel were touchy!

Not in an odd way, and not in ways directly meaning to imply romantic intent—Frieren wouldn’t really identify that, and the last thing Himmel would ever do is take advantage of her—but I love thinking it was just second nature for them to bundle up together at a tree stump. Or for Frieren to plop her head on Himmel’s shoulder while he’s polishing his sword, or vice versa while Frieren’s sat at the bed reading a tome. Just a really cute mutual reciprocity of little gestures like that which probably helped Frieren of the present be so openly affectionate (re: headpatting everyone in her party, bundling up in blankets with Fern). let me have this ok

Hi, welcome to your first day at [X]! A schedule you say? Well, we try not to make one, becuase it'll always end up overturned.

Management? Sure they exist, but maybe you shouldn't spend too much time with them lest you become collatoral damage and/or they remember your name and you get caught up in the Plot.

Our retirement plan IS very generous, you're right. What's that? How many people have retired and been able to claim it?

...hahaha, what a good question. Let's continue the tour, here to our right is the cafeteria-

Hopefully everyone here gets well compensated for their work (Doubt(tm)).

Write-ins, propaganda, and images are welcome!

The great Merlin does their own laundry.

It's. Well, it is certainly not what Valen expected. He's heard ever balad, read every story and tale and history. He though he knew archmagister Merlin, long before he ever met them. They are the most famous person in the world after all.

But the stories failed to mention a Firecracker blearing sleepily at the small label on the back of a bag of laundry detergent because they can't be bothered to grab the glasses they left on the bedside table, wearing only a too-big shirt that they probably stole from the back of Hogan's closet at some point. The writings spoke of a dimensional pocket of magitechnical wonders, but not the way they still separate the colors of their laundry. No ballad ever detailed the way they still carefully read the instructions on the detergent, even though theyve doubtless done this a thousand times before.

It's quaint, in its own way. Sweet. Humanizing. A little bit scary, too, because Merlin's memory comes and goes, shifts like the sands of the desert or the disguise they use to walk among their people, and Valen cant help but fear the day Merlin forgets him, too, the way they keep forgetting the spell to instantly clean their clothes.

(Hogan is an even stronger man than Valen ever imagined for bearing it with such grace.)

But Chippy serves another stack of pancakes and, this morning, Merlin gets their laundry started without any fuss (though Valen will probably have to remind them to rotate it later). The house wakes up slowly around them and Merlin looks at Valen with eyes bright with recognition, with affection and

In that, at least, Valen and Hogan can agree. Because Merlin forgets, sure, but they remember, too, or they relearn. And Valen thinks, he'd endure being forgotten a thousand times, just to see Merlin smile.

I think the most beautiful part of the last scene being sara, felice, wille and simon driving away from hillerska is that it always was the four of them, the only people who dared to challenge all of their beliefs and break free from all the expectations society and people had of them 🥹, they all get to experience freedom in different ways now together.

God I love characters who have brown hair and who are generally considered stupid but clearly aren't. and have younger brothers who they clearly have trauma over. and aren't explicitly LGBTQIA+ but clearly are bc just look at them. and who's (main source of) content can be abbreviated to three letters. and who have died more than once. And should be put in a box and shook. and fuck with time travel. and fuck UP time travel. And have a “best friend” named Bill. And are named Ted (Theodore).
