I'm just farming karma by doing good deeds so when I eat it in 60 years or get stabbed for being snarky in public I can respawn as a foxgirl

蔓日日草[Tsurunichinichisō] Vinca major

蔓[Tsuru] : Vine, creeping plant

日日[Nichinichi] : Day by day; every day; daily

草[Sō] : Grass, herb

When I was passing through a dreary village, many these vines were crawling out of the yard of a house that has been uninhabited for several years, and some of them were beginning to produce some flowers under the drizzle that had just started to fall. It is a naturalized plant native to Europe, not only the flowers but also the leaves are suitable for appreciation, but is highly fertile and will spread if left unchecked. When the weather warms up a little more, they will produce much more flowers in the place that no one will ever see.

Incidentally, 黒澤明[Kurosawa Akira]'s film Sanjuro(椿三十郎[Tsubaki Sanjūrō]) was based on the story 日日平安[Nichinichi heian](Everyday in peace) by 山本周五郎[Yamamoto Shūgorō]. This story has recently entered the public domain. https://www.aozora.gr.jp/cards/001869/files/57728_75665.html (ja) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uq_rSsbhQnE

A look back at the previous post.

Most of the sixty films of the Kurosawa-Mifune tandem are considered film classics. Some of the most famous ones are Rashomon, Seven Samurai, Hidden Fortress, Throne of Blood, Yojimbo, and Sanjuro. Mifune played a samurai in them. Believe it or not, Mifune is the first to admit that he is only a student of kendo. Even so, many great masters of Japanese swordsmanship said that Mifune's handling of the Japanese katana was perfectly demonstrated in the film.

In Japan, it is possible to return to the world of the samurai by visiting any old city such as Kamakura, Kyoto or Nara. Toshiro Mifune is known throughout the world for many such roles, dedicated to some of the famous ronin - or masterless samurai.

During the filming of Tsubaki Sanjuro, Kurosawa's story about the exciting life of ronin during the early Tokugawa period, Mifune became acquainted with the ancient kendo school of swordsmanship, "Kotoh Eiri-Ryu". The name of the school means "Wonderful sword flickers in the darkness of the shadows". Mifune's sporting blood fueled the story, which is, of course, legendary. During feudal times, a swordsman from this school could take out more than eight people in just five seconds.

Tsubaki Sanjûrô

Sanjuro

JP, 1962

Akira Kurosawa

8/10

Yojimbo, parte II

Menos conhecido do que Yojimbo, estreado no ano anterior, este Sanjuro é, na verdade, uma sequela do primeiro, ainda que com personagens diferentes, mas com os mesmos atores principais, Toshiro Mifune, no papel do ronin invencível, e Tatsuya Nakadai, no papel do vilão.

O sucesso de Yojimbo levou a Toho a pedir a Kurosawa uma sequela. Ele pegou então num projeto anterior, que pretendia ser uma adaptação fiel da novela "Peaceful Days" de Shûgorô Yamamoto, e transformou-o neste Tsubaki Sanjûrô, reutilizando o tema musical, personagens e principais atores de Yojimbo.

Curiosamente, o mesmo que Sergio Leone fez com o sucesso de "Por um Punhado de Dólares", remake de Yojimbo, e "Por Mais Alguns Dólares", sequela de argumento original, que apenas aproveita um personagem, o ambiente e o ator principal do filme anterior.

Sanjuro é um bom filme de samurais, ao melhor estilo de Kurosawa e Mifune, mas não é Yojimbo. É divertido, tem muita ação, tem até o que alguns dizem ser a primeira cena de explosão de sangue num duelo, no que viria a ser uma imagem de marca do género, copiada por Tarantino, mas falta-lhe o carisma da prequela. Há um lado de farsa que corrói o dramatismo de Yojimbo, mesmo com o duelo final ao pôr do sol, como nos filmes de cowboys.

Ainda assim, é altamente recomendado para os apreciadores do género.

Yojimbo, part II

Less known than Yojimbo, released the previous year, this Sanjuro is, in fact, a sequel to the first, albeit with different characters, but with the same main actors, Toshiro Mifune, in the role of the invincible ronin, and Tatsuya Nakadai, in the role of the villain.

Yojimbo's success led Toho to ask Kurosawa for a sequel. He then took a previous project, which was intended to be a faithful adaptation of Shûgorô Yamamoto's novel "Peaceful Days", and transformed it into this Tsubaki Sanjûrô, reusing the musical theme, characters and main actors from Yojimbo.

Interestingly, the same thing that Sergio Leone did with the success of "For a Fistful of Dollars", a remake of Yojimbo, and "For a Few Dollars More", a sequel with an original script, which only takes advantage of one character, the theme and the main actor of the previous film.

Sanjuro is a good samurai film, in the best style of Kurosawa and Mifune, but it is not Yojimbo. It's fun, there's a lot of action, it even has what some say is the first blood explosion scene in a duel, in what would become a hallmark of the genre, copied by Tarantino, but it lacks the charisma of the prequel. There is a side of farce that corrodes the drama of Yojimbo, even with the final duel at sunset, like in cowboy films.

Still, it is highly recommended for lovers of the genre.

Toshiro Mifune, Takako Irie, and Reiko Dan in Sanjuro (Akira Kurosawa, 1962)

Cast: Toshiro Mifune, Tatsuya Nakadai, Keiju Kobayashi, Yuzo Kayama, Reiko Dan, Takashi Shimura, Kamatari Fujiwara, Takako Irie, Masao Shimizu, Yunosuke Ito. Screenplay: Ryuzo Kikushima, Hideo Oguni, Akira Kurosawa, based on a novel by Shugoro Yamamoto. Cinematography: Fukuzo Koizumi, Takao Saito. Production design: Yoshiro Muraki. Music: Masaru Soto.

Akira Kurosawa's tongue-in-cheek Sanjuro is not so much a sendup of samurai films as it is an effort to carry a genre to its logical and sometimes absurd extremes, the way the James Bond movies took spy films to an exciting but improbable and often comic point of no return. It reaches its peak in the final combat between Sanjuro (Toshiro Mifune) and Hanbei (Tatsuya Nakadai), with an explosion of gore (produced by a pressurized hose that nearly knocked Nakadai off his feet) that's surprising and shocking but also very funny once you put it in the context of the usual bloodless deaths of samurai films. But Kurosawa has made us aware of the just-a-movie unreality of Sanjuro's action throughout, with his careful arrangements of the nine samurai under the spell of the sloppy ronin who calls himself "Sanjuro Tsubaki," which means something like "30-year-old camellia," a name he makes up on the spot. The not-so-magnificent nine are always grouping themselves for the camera, either in little triple triads or in chains that fill the widescreen. Their arrangements come to annoy Sanjuro so much that once, when they're trying to sneak up on someone, he tells them not to move in single file behind him: "We look like a centipede!" In addition to Mifune's irresistible scene-stealing, there's a delightful comic performance by Takako Irie as Mutsuta's (Yunosuke Ito) wife, dithery and concerned with propriety, but also with a fund of commonsense that Sanjuro wisely heeds. Nakadai is wasted as the villain who's the only plausible challenger to the hero -- a kind of Basil Rathbone to Mifune's Errol Flynn -- a role that otherwise doesn't give him much to do but glare at the fools he's allied with.

This image sums up the movie Tsubaki Sanjuro in a nutshell. 😁 Seriously, if you haven't seen the 2007 remake of the Mifune Toshiro classic, find yourself a copy.

.

Ronin Sanjuro has found the perfect place to spend the night: an abandoned shrine a short distance from town. However, when he returns to the shrine late one night, he finds it taken over by a gaggle of young samurai having a very important meeting to discuss what they should do about a startling case of corruption in their clan that they've uncovered during the absence of their lord, who's in Edo on alternate attendance.

Iori, the group's de facto leader, has presented their case in form of a petition to his uncle, Mutsuta, the clan's senior retainer, who tore it up, telling him they cannot even image who the real villain is and to keep their noses out of the matter. Convinced his uncle is behind the corruption because of this response, Iori then made his case to Kikui, the ometsuke, who promised to look into the matter and asked Iori to assemble his comrades so he can hear their evidence.

At this point, the audience will be yelling at the screen that it's a trap.

Thankfully we don't have to because Sanjuro, who has eavesdropped on the conversation, comes to the rescue. Realizing that this gaggle of idealistic but naive young samurai - the youngest of whom hasn't even shaved his forelock yet - is in real trouble without some guidance, and not being one to let them get killed for no reason, Sanjuro steps up to help them resolve the matter. (He does most of the work, sometimes helped and regularly hindered by his gaggle of ducklings who seemingly share a single brain cell.)
