What was the total number of tenchu assassinations in Kyoto and how frequent? Were there any tenchu or similar incidents like this outside of Kyoto?

I know you're not supposed to answer a question with a question, but just so we are on the same page, how do you define tenchu assassinations?

I want to define the term to mean assassinations carried out by the sonno joi movement, but some only use it to describe assassinations carried out after 1862, approximately around the time the imperial decree for the expulsion of foreigners was issued and the sonno-joi movement saw more widespread political support.

That said, I honestly don't think there is a clear answer to your first question, how many tenchu murders took place in Kyoto and how frequently they occurred.

I've poked around various books, journals, and websites in both English and Japanese, and a lot of material is really vague regarding numbers, even when it comes to tracking killings said to have been committed by the hitokiri, let alone by other, unnamed or lesser-known, assassins.

So I can't give you any idea about the overall number of such killings or how frequently they occurred, except to say they were obviously concerning enough in the Kyoto area in 1862 and 1863 that the need for restoring the safety of Kyoto was a pressing enough matter, which then also contributed to the formation of the Shinsengumi.

As for the second part, yes, there were many tenchu killings outside of Kyoto.

According to Tamura Yuichi, the first incidents of sonno joi-related murders occurred in 1859 and targeted foreigners: two Russians, and a Chinese man working for the French legation, and then in 1860 a translator for the British legation, two Dutch merchants, an Italian working for the French, and Hendrick (Henry) Heusken of the American consulate. Most of these were carried out by anonymous assassins.

The first real tenchu incident in the sense that the words heaven's punishment were used in connection to it, might be the Sakuradamon incident in Edo in 1860.

Here, 18 assassins (one from Satsuma and 17 from Mito) murdered Ii Naosuke, who was the chief minister to the shogun. They also killed a large number of samurai in his procession (and presumably some of the other attendants), but I don't think there's ever an actual number given.

In this case, the assassins' manifest reads in part: "Therefore, we have consecrated ourselves to be the instruments of Heaven to punish this wicked man, and we have taken on ourselves the duty of ending a serious evil, by killing this atrocious autocrat."

Ii's murder was also a turning point.

Prior to his murder, direct action against officials was almost exceedingly rare, while afterward, it became more commonplace.

However, if you consider 1862, the year in which the sonno-joi movement receives strong political backing, to be when tenchu murders start, then the first one would then be that of Shimada Sakon in July 1862.

Tamura tracks 46 documented murders between the second half of 1862 and 1863, which include several outside of Kyoto, such as the four yoriki incident in Ishibe-juku (about 40 kilometers from the center of Kyoto) and the murder of Ikeuchi Daigaku, who was killed on his way back from a banquet in Osaka.

One incident also worth mentioning is the Tenchugumi incident in Yamato province (now Nara prefecture), in which the group of ronin calling themselves the Tenchugumi occupied the magistrate's office in Gojo City (about 80 km from Kyoto) and beheaded the magistrate, putting his head on public display. Wiki Corpus has a page about it in English that you may find helpful and that saves me from typing up all of that info.

I hope this helps?

As always, if anyone has additional or better information, please add it! I'm doing my best, but I definitely don't know everything.

What’s Out This Week? 11/23

The past few years have been hard on everyone, so if we’re thankful for anything, it’s YOU, Fantomites! 

Ancient Enemies #1 (of 6) - Dan DiDio & Danilo Beyruth

Earth becomes the final battlefield for a centuries old war between two alien races.  But this final conflict becomes the unintentional breeding ground for a new generation of super powers, each with the ability to influence the outcome of the war.  Some super powers choose sides, while others struggle to maintain their independence with the hope of saving the Earth.  This series explodes with new characters and creations, written by former DC Publisher Dan DiDio, with design and art by the industry's newest rising star, Danio Beyruth.  As first issues, go, this one is not to be missed!

Fear Of A Red Planet #1 - Mark Sable, Andrea Olimpieri & Paul Azaceta

Mars.  Fifty years from now, humanity's first Martian colony is no longer self-sustaining. Under the thumb of its corporate mining overlords, the surviving colonists slave away just to pay for resupply rockets from Earth, will little or no hope of returning home.

One woman has kept a fragile peace: the U.N.'s first and only interplanetary marshal.  A lawwoman escaping a violent past on Earth, she prides herself on never having fired a shot on Mars. But when she's tasked with solving the murder of the colony's most hated man, her investigation threatens to tear the red planet apart.    

Frank Miller’s Ronin: Book II #1 (of 6) -  Frank Miller

Kemono Jihen GN Vol 1 -  Sho Aimoto

Inugami is a Tokyo detective who specializes in the occult. One day, answering a call to a remote village leads him to Dorotabo: a peculiar boy nicknamed after a yokai that haunts muddy rice paddies. The boy has no parents and is somewhat unnerving, emitting a foul odor that draws the ire of those around him. Inugami, however, quickly realizes that there's something more monstrous about Dorotabo than just his nickname, a fact proven when the two of them investigate an inhuman creature attacking local livestock. Perhaps Inugami can take this mistreated boy under his wing and train him to face the secret, supernatural beasts hidden in the world... using the eerie powers of his own body.

Men I Trust HC - Tommi Parrish

Tommi Parrish's sophomore graphic novel establishes them as one of the most exciting voices in contemporary literature. Eliza is a thirtysomething struggling single mother and poet. Sasha, a twentysomething yearning for direction in life, just moved back in with her parents and dabbles as a sex worker. The two strike up an unlikely friendship that, as it veers toward something more, becomes a deeply resonant exploration of how far people are willing to go to find intimacy in a society that is increasingly closed off. In Sasha and Eliza, Parrish has created two of the most fully realized characters in recent contemporary fiction. Parrish's gorgeously painted pages showcase a graceful understanding of body language and ear for dialogue, brilliantly using the medium of comics to depict the dissonance between the characters' interior and exterior experiences. Men I Trust is about not-always-healthy people attempting to make healthy connections in a disconnected world, and is one of the most moving and insightful works of literary fiction in any medium this year.

Once Upon A Time At The End Of The World #1 -  Jason Aaron, Alexandre Tefenkgi & Mike Del Mundo

It can only be seen by those who bear the Gearform Scar on their hearts. Are you one such soul? Don't miss this beautiful release from an award-winning Japanese artist who contributed to Final Fantasy art.

Wild! Or So I Was Born To Be GN Vol 1 -  Cristian Castelo

At Westhoff High, pain is part of the curriculum... But so is math, science, and chemistry. However, Wild Rodriguez and her pint-size companions have always had one goal and one goal only as they enter freshman year: to join the the Rocket Rollers and test their mettle in the infamously violent roller derby league. Now, summer draws to an end and tryouts are here! Do they have what it takes to climb the ranks of the derby world, or will their dream just as quickly turn into a nightmare? Wild discovers that sometimes dreams involve a lot of getting kicked in the face, as well as maybe accidentally getting involved in a blood feud or two. Half roller derby, half professional wrestling, the league is filled with cussin', spittin' roughnecks like the Cult Catastrophe, earnest athletes the 8-Ball Bruisers, sick freaks Puppy & the Pound, and the elegant-but-deadly Matadors. Becoming a true legend of the derby track like her hero (and occasional helpful psychic avatar) Rosie Rozene involves a lot of physical and emotional fortitude, luckily Wild and all her friends-imaginary or otherwise-have each other's backs no matter what! 

You Like Me, Not My Daughter? GN Vol 1 - Kouta Nozomi, Tesshin Azuma & Giuniu

A beautiful mother, a pining tutor, and romantic hijinks await in this hot mom romcom! When Ayako's sister died, leaving her young daughter all alone, Ayako stepped up and took the child into her life. Now that her niece/adopted daughter is a teenager, a 30-something Ayako can sense first love in the air. Ayako teases her daughter about Takumi, their handsome and college-aged neighbor, who's been tutoring her since she was young-could they be a blossoming couple, since he's always beaming when he comes to their house? To Ayako's surprise, Takumi isn't interested in daughter dearest: he's long had a crush on Ayako herself! In this age gap romantic comedy, one young man is ready to bring a little sugar to the sexy mom next door.

Whatcha scooping up this week, Fantomites?

Lessons from Chusingura – What the 47 Ronin Can Teach Us

Chusingura is the story of how 47 ronin avenged their daimyo with honour. A popular novel in Japan, The New Chushingura – The Forty-Seven Ronin, tells the story of how these 47 vassals of Takumi no Kami, the young, stoic daimyo who was forced to commit seppuku, avenged their master in 1703.

Oishi Kuranosuke was the Chief Retainer of the daimyo who was sentenced to commit seppuku by the then Shogun. He was the leader of the faction that was determined to take revenge against Lord Kira, also known as Lord Kozuke no Suke, the Chief Master of Ceremonies who publicly insulted Takumi no Kami in the Edo palace. The lesson in this essay is largely based on his musings in a chapter of the book.

Dog law and culture

The shogun at that point in history was the fifth in the Tokugawa era. Tsunayoshi was popularly known as the “Dog Shogun” because he notoriously passed the Edicts on Compassion for Living Things, which outlawed “cruelty” to dogs. This may be inspired by the fact that he was born in the year of the dog.

As a result of this law that protected domesticated animals, the status of humans was relegated to a level below dogs. If a person, even a samurai, mistreated or even deemed rude to a dog, could be punished for the offence.

In a chapter largely filled with musings of Oishi, he reflected on how this dog law permeated the culture of Japan. He saw how some people behaved like dogs and, thus, became elevated in society because of their dog-like servile and ingratiating behaviour. These people were not only found amongst the peasants, but also in noble circles of samurai.

“We will reluctantly walk without spirit, depending on the time, we become humans or become dogs.”

As a matter of course, these “dog people”, regardless of their place in society, advanced in their respective fields because they complied with the feudal Dog Culture that not only spread fear, but also taught people to be subservient and promoted sycophancy. 

“In this world of esteemed dogs, if the two swords of a samurai, one long and one short, can't be grabbed, they are only discarded. The daimyo abandons being a daimyo; the samurai quits being a samurai; the government official stops being a government official.”

In his musings, Oishi realised that those who chose to remain human have become outcasts because they defy the dog customs and unjust laws of the times. Indignant, he declared to himself, “We are not less than dogs. We are human beings.” Thus, he decided:

“He would give life to the late lord's will. If we don't eliminate the corrupt government of the current shogunate, without clan or connections and the misfortune of being banned from the world, our sole measure must be to walk a path, even if we know previous generations did not follow that path.”

This Chief Retainer of Takumi no Kami, Oishi Kuranosuke, based on honour and courage, chose the road less travelled. We meet very few people like him these days. When he and his colleagues had accomplished their goal of killing and beheading the dog-like Lord Kira, they proudly marched in broad daylight to Sengakuji Temple. Along the way, the public witnessed in awe and admiration. When they arrived at the temple, they declared, "This message is for the guardians of this temple. We are the vassals of the late Asano Takumi no Kami. Tonight, we invaded the Kira estate in Honjo to ask for the head of Lord Kozuke no Suke. We achieved our goal and came to present our offering at the grave of our late lord. Together, we will go to the family cemetery. We ask you to shut the main gate to prevent outsiders from entering when we pass through to his grave and report to our lord's soul."

Gone are the days of such honour and courage. 

In 1941, during World War II, U.S. President Roosevelt declared the fundamental objective of the Allied Forces – the promotion and protection of human rights – by proclaiming the 'Four Freedoms' that people everywhere in the world ought to enjoy - freedom of speech and belief, and freedom from want and fear. Alas, that is still a pipe dream. Today, cowardly sycophants ostensibly rule the world. In reality, the elite billionaires dictate the agenda for society to follow and like. In times like these, contrary to Roosevelt’s vision, people cower in fear and desperately seek a decent living, all the while denied their ability to think and formulate their own opinions, much less speak or profess their own beliefs.

Malaysia today

In many ways, Malaysia today is like the era of the Dog Shogun. Of course, the way we got here is not the same. There were no specific laws that made us behave the way we do; however, the feudalistic culture fraught with sycophancy abounds.

If we look at the recent history of Malaysia, we can trace some of the milestones that led to the sad and sickening state of our nation. First, we were subjugated by the British colonialists. In the pursuit of their imperial aims, they suppressed the people to reap economic gains. They called it development.

Then, the independence government of Malaya inherited many British methods and laws, including divide-and-rule tactics and the Sedition Act (1948). Worse, some royal families and elite politicians colluded with the British to control the independence narrative that gave birth to Malaya in 1957. Whilst the Internal Security Act (1960) was enacted by the Malaysian government, It was influenced by British colonial-era legislation used to manage communist threats by using detention without trial. The Malaysian government has continued to use the ISA, raising concerns about its use against political dissidents.

Such draconian laws and political tactics, no doubt, significantly contributed to the culture of feudalism and corruption that evolved and took root in Malaysian society.

It is unnecessary to describe the political landscape and socio-economic conditions in Malaysia today. It is glaringly obvious that yes-men of the highest order are working hard and fast at the behest of the powers that be. And thanks to the crony capitalism that flourished, the Dog Culture has permeated every strata of Malaysian society.

At the top of the food chain, we find the Prime Minister who is appointed by the Agung. In the last election, Pakatan Harapan did not receive a clear mandate from the people. Nevertheless, the current prime minister was appointed despite evidence furnished by the other side that showed their candidate for PM had majority support in the Dewan Rakyat. Then we saw the horse-trading that led to the current Madani Government, which includes Barisan Nasional, an erstwhile enemy. Since then, we can see the blatant political appointments that rewarded the “loyal supporters” of PMX. These dog people got plum jobs in government-linked companies, and crony entrepreneurs either managed to keep high value contracts by switching allegiance, or getting new contracts by reminding the dog politicians how they have supported their party’s struggle since the Reformasi days.

Of course, the Dog Culture trickled down to the grass roots and influenced the behaviour of sub-contractors as well as bureaucrats, not to mention petty traders and clerical staff. And thus, every citizen succumbed to fate and had to choose whether to become a dog to survive, or to stay human and weather the storm. 

What do we do

What are we to do in such a milieu? Perhaps this final lesson from the Chushingura is instructive: 

“Whatever path life takes, the path selected by each person will be different. However, the person who seizes meaning and a life worth living will enjoy life to the maximum and be immortal.”

Regardless of the times, we will all face difficulties and suffering. Though the circumstances are different, the common thread is the challenge to our “survival”, which can mean livelihood, career advancement, wellbeing of loved ones, and so forth, depending on how we frame the challenge.

At this point, let me ask a couple of pointed questions:

Is it worth living like a dog just so that you get chunks of meat for every meal and lots of toys to play with? 

Or should life be lived as a dignified human being that can enjoy the heights of freedom and experience the depths of consciousness?

Patrick Henry famously said, "Give me liberty or give me death!" Like him, I see the loss of liberty as akin to death. We are born full of potential, but we can only flourish if we are free from fear and want. 

I dare say that the vast majority of Malaysians are neither free from fear nor want. Most common people are either fretting about their mortgage repayments or desperately trying to catch their next big break in life. 

That sounds like how dogs live from day to day. And dogs are never immortalised.
