Hotsui Matsuri Day 4: More Traditional Instruments!

Are you all ready for more traditional Japanese instruments?!

It’s Hotsui Matsuri day four and today I’m going to be moving away from anime in my post to talk about some culture topics instead! I’m going to be revisiting a topic that I personally have loved over the past few years that we’ve done this campaign, and that is introducing you all to traditional Japanese instruments! You can find past posts here, here, and here. Today, I’m going to be bringing…

I wanted to add more to this cause. You know how annoying it is to figure out what weapons are which, including japanese furniture? Had to save it all on pinterest.

Did you how annoying it has been to finally find good translated examples of what consists of a traditional Japanese house or room for writing ideas?

Here's something very special. I received an extremely early, generous and downright magical Christmas present 🎁

It's a 1989 taishōgoto synthesizer, it is unreal and I'm all kinds of emotional over it 💗

Hi everyone!

Somehow I've created a YouTube channel. I don't have a clear plan and I'm curious to see where it will lead. If you're interested, feel free to check it out!

another reason I like bloodline: giving me indirect jinpachi & heihachi lore. cause this father & son duo is pretty overlooked and its just interesting to think about

I think this is the first and only time heihachi mentionned his father and the whole thing fascinates me. If you didnt know, jinpachi mishima is the founder of the mishima zaibatsu that heihachi overthrowed before locking him up in chains under their family ancestral home where jinpachi eventually died. (just goes to show the devil gene isnt the origin of the mishima's fucked up family drama)

again an interesting thing about jinpachi is that hes so far the most noble mishima (not that the bar is high...) like hes the only one who was genuinely kind to kazuya when he was a child, he also had a touching friendship with wang jinrei... but hes made his fortune by selling weapons during ww2, something he apparently regretted enough to dedicate his family legacy to world peace and martial arts.

So I imagine the lesson jinpachi tried to teach heihachi here would depend on whether he told it to a very young heihachi who internalized it and which fueled his ambition OR he told it to heihachi after ww2 which would mean heihachi was already adult and he meant it as some sort of cautionnary tale but heihachi choose to interpret it the wrong way. In any ways, stuff to think about.

and finally, maybe its all just good old manipulative heihachi at work (he is trying to get something out of jin for his own gain after all), but the way hes talking about his father here is so interesting to me because in game canon when jinpachi and heihachi are able to interact, its always is a LITERAL headbutting way, but here it opens a window into the probability of why heihachi is the way he is, and how no matter of how well intentionated jinpachi mightve been, he also played a part in shaping heihachi's evil.

Krist Solo Concert Asia Tour 2023 | report

For his Japan tour, Krist wanted to incorporate elements of both countries into the concert. He incorporated Japanese taiko drums to give the concert a Japanese flavor, and Thai traditional dances to give it a Thai flavor. The performance was something that could only be seen at a concert in Japan, and it showed Krist's determination to show his fans something special.
