KYLE CROUSE: [reading question from ChaosSonic1] "At the time this question is written, Sonic Speed Simulator just put the Kunoichi Amy and while it is not canon as you said yourself many times, it is mentioned. This does get me thinking, what if instead of going to Knothole in pre-Super Genesis Wave of Archie what if Amy went to the Dragon Kingdom and was raised by any of the 4 clans, and how would each of the clans raise her and how would she be?"

IAN FLYNN: This is, number one, assuming that any of them would actually take her in, 'cause they were very isolationist in their own rights, but we'll ignore that for the sake of the question. KYLE: Mhm. IAN: Um, if she were to go into... let's say she got picked up by the Yagyu, became like, the right hand to the Bride of Rich Nights. Uh, number one, Iron King wouldn't have offed the Bride, that's for sure. And, I don't know, I could kinda see her becoming their greatest muscle in the group, like... the living embodiment of 'smash and grab.' This is assuming that the hammer comes with her, that it's like, a mystically-tied item, and uh... 'cause I think that's how we were going in pre-reboot, if I remember correctly. So, you know, the Yagyu thieves are out there pillaging the land, and if anybody tries to actually stop them, she comes in and stops them. Uh, Raiju Clan? Well, they're already war-like, so now you've got Amy with potentially lightning-channeled hammer in addition to everything else? KYLE: [chuckles] That sounds awesome. IAN: Now maybe her inherent compassion means that she doesn't finish off her opponents. She's just content with defeating them, but she is schooled in the ways of making lots of pain, lots of- really darn fast. Uh, the Gossamer Clan? [sigh] That's almost like saying 'Amy becomes a nun.' KYLE: [snorts] IAN: Y'know? Or... or she goes out into the world, following the Web of Fate, to ensure things play out a certain way. And maybe her fortune cards are a way of interpreting that, or there's a different version of them. Something that's more tied to the Web of Fate. Maybe instead of fortune cards, she does, like, uh... oh, what is it called when you do, like, the strings between your fingers to make Cat's Cradle and stuff? Like, very quick weavings to fortune-tell. That might be kind of a fun twist on things. Uh, and then for the Shinobi Clan, that would be worth it just for the long con. She's there in the narrative as she always was. You don't think it's any different, you think this is just standard Amy, but surprise! She's been Constant Vigil's sleeper agent in the Freedom Fighters this whole time! KYLE: [laughs] Oh no! IAN: The fangirling over- that fangirling over Sonic? That was just to keep tabs on him! Why is she paying so much attention to Sonic? "Oh, she's a fangirl. Don't worry about it." No, ninja spy! KYLE: [laughs] Wow! You've explained everything, Ian! Perfect. You've solved it. You've figured it out, Ian. You've justified it. We've- you've done it. Man, this show is so productive! [both laugh]

Poster for Yagyu Chronicles 3: The Valley of the Outlaws (1961).

The popular Toei film series about the Yagyu Clan continues. Konoe Kushiro returns as legendary swordsman Jubei Yagyu, sporting Jubei's signature eyepatch for the first time. I'll have to watch this film again to make sure, but I seem to recall there was never an in-series explanation for the eyepatch's arrival.

The eyepatch is used in many modern depictions of the character, with varying explanations as to why Jubei must wear it. It is believed by many historians to just be an invention to enhance Jubei's legend. Chronicles of his life and portraits taken of him show him with both eyes.

ok fine. i'm gonna slowly reread all of IDW with the sole mission of staring very closely at the crowd shots and trying to collect every single bat character design in this stupid(affectionate) little furry franchise because i have two bat OCs and my life is a nightmare

[yuesya]

hey yuesya did you read the recent Simple Domain/Shin Kageryu lore drop? It was in chapter 269 I think.

Oh, was that something about... collecting lifespan from Simple Domain users in exchange for allowing them to use the technique? Or something along those lines?

I haven't decided on if it will be relevant to zenith of stars. Tbh we're already kinda veering off the track with the setup of Shin Kageryu and the Yagyu Clan here haha

Day 2 of @teamdarkweek! I’m not as happy with how this one came out, but I still like it ngl

The team is reminiscing about their pasts. I like to headcanon that Omega is built with parts from the E-series robots before him and that Rouge was born from the Yagyu clan. That random bat clan from the Archie comics

One of these days I'm gonna list ALL the references to actual Yagyu Clan facts that's sprinkled all around the DLC's story because GOD ALMIGHTY there were a lot! I've been a huge Yagyu Clan nerd and I genuinely love how they touch upon more less widely-known stuff about the clan!

[talesofedo]

Not all of Munenori’s children were a source of pride. Especially Jūbei caused him grief. Born in 1607, Jūbei had been a troubled child from the start. Possessed of a dark and brooding disposition, he was given to sudden, inexplicable outburst of anger. As he grew older the outbursts became less frequent but deepened in intensity, especially when he took to drinking.

...

All the greater, then, was Munenori’s disappointment with his own son [ compared to his nephew ] when, on his return to Edo, he learned Jūbei had again injured a fellow practitioner. This time he had fractured a man’s skull with a bokutō, and though the man still lived, he was bound to spend the rest of his days a cripple.

(from William de Lange's "The Remarkable History of the Yagyu Clan")

Yep, that's pretty on brand for Jubei.

[robotnik-mun]

In the real world there are many bat species it makes easy to say that the yagyu clan from archie sonic and rouge the bat are the not same bat species at all.

Apologies for taking so long!

And you're quite correct- there are a PLETHORA of bat species in the real world! Trouble is, the difference between Rouge and the Yagyu clan bats is a bit more extreme given that they have 'wing arms' while Rouge has a set of arms AND wings. See how that might come off as a bit of a glaring difference, even or especially compared to real world bats?

Then again, given the origins of Mobians in Archie, namely via the Gene Bomb, its entirely probable that multiple pathways in evolution/animal-human genetic recombination means that such variations are not uncommon. Look at the Bird mobians who either have wing arms and can fly (Sir Pecker, Cyril the EAgle), while other birds have human arms and seemingly cannot do the same (Bean the Dynamite, Dr. Quack).

... I still wanna see what a 'Sonic' take on a Hammerhead Bat would look like.

BEHOLD!

The reason why bats and moose shouldn't marry!

Kenta Fukasaku talks about his father Kinji Fukasaku and Battle Royale

INTERVIEW Kenta Fukasaku talks about the charm of legendary director Kinji Fukasaku! Special Interview / Kenta Fukasaku December 27, 2022 Source: tvguide

Director and screenwriter Kenta Fukasaku (Battle Royale and Battle Royale II) talks about memories of his father Kinji Fukasaku at the special screening of Sayonara Shibuya TOEI "Battle Royale". Producer of Battle Royale and Battle Royale II, Kimio Kataoka, on the left. 

Toei's directly managed theater, Shibuya TOEI, which opened in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo on November 18, 1953 (Showa 28), closed on the 4th, marking the end of its 69-year history. On the same day, the last special screening titled "Sayonara Shibuya TOEI" was held. At 11:30 a.m., 1999's "Poppoya" (directed by Yasuo Furuhata) starring Ken Takakura, was screened and from 6:00 p.m., 2000's "Battle Royale" directed by Kinji Fukasaku.

At the special screening of "Battle Royale", Director Kenta Fukasaku (50), who was the eldest son of Director Fukasaku and served as the scriptwriter and producer of the film, and Kimio Kataoka (59), the producer, took the stage. Director Kenta Fukasaku said, “It was a very difficult movie to make into a movie. At the time, I was 27 years old when I first became a producer. There was considerable opposition from within Toei as well.”

On top of that, former chairman Yusuke Okada, who passed away on November 18, 2008, was the sales manager at the time, and said, "It was a work that was realized by pushing through the planning meeting. Fukasaku Kinji's works were hardly received in the 90's. It must have been a work that had a lot of discussions about whether it was okay.”

On top of that, director Kenta Fukasaku said "Battle Royale of Kinji Fukasaku was the same with 'Battle Without Humanity', and he was a director who constantly made movies for young audiences by drawing images of post-war youth. The next one may be the last... A movie that I challenged at the age of 70 as a movie for young people to see." Then, "The night before (the release), my father was very worried, and in the middle of the night, father and son quietly went to see how the Marunouchi TOEI was going. Unlike today's reservation system, there was a culture of lining up (around the movie theater) from midnight the day before. When I saw people lining up, I still can't forget the face of the old man who was sitting in the front passenger seat. Thanks to you, it was a big hit."

He also mentioned the relationship between Shibuya TOEI and Battle Royale. “As you may know, the last part ends in Shibuya. After all, Kinji Fukasaku had a lot of feelings for young people and youth culture in Shibuya. I wanted to stand on the stage in Shibuya, so I was allowed to stand on the stage greetings," he said.

Toei Channel has decided to feature Fukasaku's works for nine consecutive months from January 2023 as a memorial for the 20th anniversary of director Kinji Fukasaku's death. This time, we asked Fukasaku's son, Kenta Fukasaku, who works on movies and stage productions, about his father and the appeal of his work.

──In commemoration of the 20th anniversary of his death, the works of Fukasaku Kinji's will be featured from January. You have made many films, but do you remember the first film you saw?

“When I was 5 years old, I went to the filming location of 'The Conspiracy of the Yagyu Clan' (1978) at Toei Kyoto Studios, and for the first time I saw my father happily running around the set. After that, I also visited the site of my father's sci-fi film "Message from the Universe" (in the same year). I remember that the first work I saw was one of them. At the time, there was software on 8mm film, and my father would show it to me through a projector at home. This year was the year that "Star Wars" was released, and I saw "Star Wars" after "Message from Space", but I was stunned at why it was so different (bitter smile). However, I also thought that the sword fights in Japanese films were cooler, and that Shinichi Chiba and Mikio Narita seemed to be stronger than Darth Vader.”

── Out of the many works, which director Kinji's work do you like the most?

"The Graveyard of Humanity (1975) starring Tetsuya Watari. The main character, a yakuza, is from Ibaraki, the same place as my father. I could see my father's image of youth overlapped with that way of being. As a filmmaker, I think there was also a paternal sympathy for the world of misfits. He doesn't have a "steady" job as a film director either."

──As with "Graveyard of Humanity", director Kinji is famous for his work that depicts the life of an outlaw. What were your impressions when you first saw the most representative series, "Battle Without Humanity and Honor"?

“When I was a junior high school student, I was skeptical, but when I first saw it on video for the first time, I was reminded that Kinji Fukasaku, who makes films on the side of the weak, is a wonderful director. My father hated the strong and the power of the state. When the war ended at the age of 15, he thought he had been betrayed by what the adults said. Since then, he no longer believes in people who stand by the strong. In "Battle Without Humanity and Honor" (1973), thugs who were used by their boss die tragically, but it is also a requiem for the young people of the time who were sent to the battlefield by the country and had no choice but to die. But when I look back at my father's works, almost all of them are hymns of youth."

── When you think of teenagers sent to battlefields, "Battle Royale" (2000) comes to mind. Kenta-san was in charge of producing and writing the script.

“I bought the original book and put it on my desk, and my father picked it up. On the belt it said, ‘Murder all 42 junior high school students’, and he seemed to be interested in it. Then, after reading it, said, 'This is interesting. I want to shoot this.' In the depiction of the original work in which a student becomes a corpse, I overlapped myself and Japan during the war.

However, Toei did not immediately approve the project, and we were told, 'If you're going to shoot, take Kenta as a hostage.' My father didn't stick to budgets and schedules (bitter smile), so I guess he thought that if his son was made a producer, he'd probably stick to it. Moreover, it was difficult to decide on a scriptwriter, so he said, 'Kenta should write this too.' "

── Director Kinji was hospitalized and passed away right after he started working on the sequel to "Battle Royale." Twenty years later, do you have any thoughts about having a special feature like this one?

"During my lifetime, when we often drank together, I would say, ‘Movies seem to be immortal, but there are movies that are forgotten and those that grow old. When a film director dies, he is forgotten.' He's a beloved father, and I'm sad that he's gone, but even after 20 years, many people have seen my work, and We even organize a special feature like this one, so that people who haven't seen it yet will have the opportunity to experience the work. I think that director Kinji Fukasaku is a very happy director. Even if you have seen it before, if you review it, you should be able to rediscover it, so please continue to support us. Please look forward to Kinji Fukasaku's work."

TANGE SAZEN AND THE PRINCESS (1961)

The fourth of the five Tange Sazen films from Toei starring Ryūtarō Ōtomo as the irascible one-eyed, one-armed ronin.

How would the men with the clan members react to seeing a body pillow of their husbands. What would you do with the pillows?

*the boys all blushed deeply, each with a similar nosebleed*

Hiruko: "well...I'd definitely want to keep mine hidden"

Kai: "even i would keep mine so close no one would be allowed to steal it"

Kagefumi: "I'd keep a close eye on mine"

Hakutomi: "I'd hunt down anyone who steals mine"

Raidou: "Mine might be a tad cold to touch"

Shin: "mine would be treasures"

The yagyu Twins: "No one is allowed to borrow"

Gen: "even my Pillow birdie would be as cute"

Yukino: "a pillow of my Kuya, a very pleasing thought id enjoy"

Akira: "oh, as long as the real deal doesnt find mine, its all fine"

Jubei Yagyu - samurai shodown

Jubei is a one-eyed samurai of the Yagyu clan. He was born as the son of a poor samurai. But because his skills in sword fighting was great, he was adopted by Yagyu Munenori. His skills in sword fighting eventually earned him the position of the leader of the Secret clan of Yagyu, the Iga ninjas. One day, his family suddenly disappeared without a trace. Since then, Jubei travels throughout Japan to find his lost family. During his travels, he was challenged by a young warrior named Haohmaru. Although he easily defeated him, he decided to find other strong warriors to show the power of Yagyu Shinkageryuu. Later, the Bakufu government ordered him to rid of the evil when Amakusa appeared and later Mizuki appeared.

Jubei Yagyu is based off of a character of the same name from the movie Makai Tensei. He is also based on the historical figure of the same name.
