The main outfit is a bright orange, with spots of darker orange throughout the outfit so as to pay homage to the flower motif. The accent colors include black, gray, white, gold, silver, red, dark blue, and dark green- but not in a way that it overpowers the orange, but complements it. The boots, armbands, and belt all have the patterns of the Turk’s Cap Lily, while the only other accessory is a Turk’s Cap Lily brooch worn in the center of the outfit as a tie clasp. The flower’s petal shape can be seen in the tailcoat, sleeves, collar, and tie.

Bucchigiri?! Name Meanings Part 3

Continuing some name analysis with the other Minato Kai members, present and past:

Douman Kenichirou / 道満拳一郎

拳 ("ken") means "fist" and is often as a suffix in the names of martial art moves. 一 ("ichi") means "one", and related terms like "first", "best" and "only". 郎 ("rou") means "son" and is a common ending in typically male names. 道 ("dou") means "road", "way", or "path" and can include concepts such as "method" and "principle". 満 ("man") means "full" or "complete". This same character is used to spell out the first name of Matakara's brother's name, Mitsukuni (the character is read as "mitsu" here) and I'll talk a bit about that in a bit. As a complete name, Douman Kenichirou makes sense in that invokes his belief in hand-to-hand combat without weapons ("the way of only fists").

Zabu Kakeru / 座布翔

The characters that make up his last name, 座布 ("zabu"), are usually read as the common word "zafu", the term for a specific type of seat cushion used in Zen Buddhist meditation. 翔 ("kakeru") can also be read as "shou" meaning "soar" or "fly". His full name being along the lines of "Flying Cushion" probably relates to the magic carpet that features in the Disney version of Aladdin.

Sakigake Komao / 魁駒男

魁 ("sakigake") can mean "one who charges ahead of others", which so far seems to be Komao's general approach to situations. 駒 ("koma") can mean several things:

(rare) foal, young horse (or generally) horse

(shogi, chess) piece, man

someone controlled by another: a pawn, a puppet

男 ("o" or "dan") can also be read as the word "otoko" meaning "man" and is a common ending in typically male names.

Asamine Mitsukuni / 浅観音満邦

As mentioned earlier, 満 ("mitsu" or "man") can be read most directly as "full" or "complete". This is the same character used in the last part of Kenichirou's surname (Douman, 道満). This probably relates to the fact that both have been leaders of Minato Kai. 邦 ("kuni") means "home country" and usually refers to Japan itself.

As I said in a previous post, "Asamine" can be divided into two parts, 浅 and 観音. 浅 ("asa" can mean "shallow", "superficial", "frivolous", "wretched", or "shameful" while 観音 ("mine") translates to "Guanyin" ("Kannon" in Japanese), a goddess-like figure in Chinese Buddhism associated with compassion and mercy. Since Mitsukuni has yet to appear in the story, it's difficult to know exactly what is meant by this name, though I personally think something may not be as it seems with either Mitsukuni or Matakara.

LNG-fueled Tugboat Sakigake Conducts Final LNG Bunkering | Merchant Marine Jobs

On July 25, the LNG-fueled tugboat Sakigake, operated in Tokyo Bay by the NYK Group’s Shin-Nippon Kaiyosha, conducted its last bunkering at Yokohama Shinko pier as a vessel fueled by liquefied natural gas (LNG). Sakigake is scheduled to undergo conversion work in fiscal 2023 and will be re-commissioned the following fiscal year as an ammonia-fueled tugboat with even lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

On the same day, a ceremony was held in Yokohama to commemorate the last LNG bunkering by the vessel. 

The NYK Group will continue to promote the further development of an energy shift to next-generation fuels such as ammonia in the Group’s aim to achieve low-carbonization and decarbonization in the maritime industry.

Yokai Watch Corocoro Leaks (September 2018)

Corocoro leaks have been coming out, so I will translate under the readmore.

Beware of spoilers, naturally!

This month’s issue has some neat new yokai revealed.

It contains information about:

5th Yokai Watch Movie

Yokai Arks & Merchandise (revealing some new yokai)

Some Yokai Watch World stuff (mostly won’t translate that part)

As always, I will do my best to translate any new information I can make out.

--

Before we start the actual translations, let me mention the Yokai Watch World stuff in this issue.

It probably won’t help anyone who reads this, but it had a map of were in Japan certain yokai are going to appear, from what I understand.

It also showed off a new special dark version of Nyan-kishi (Sir Nyancelot) called Kuro Nyan-shiki. From what I understand, you need a code from Corocoro to get him?

And lastly, there will be autumn-themed variants of various yokai. It’s been a very common thing for the game to feature new variants for any sort of occasion so far.

--

First we have these pages:

(image source)

They introduce and talk about new “Godside Forms” and the new Watch that can make yokai transform into them.

-

ともだち妖怪たちが 最強の姿へ！！ ゴッドサイド妖怪に 神变化！！ Yokai friends turn into Godsides, their strongest forms!! Divine Transformations!

映画第５弾の超目玉情報！ 妖怪たちの究極サイドを目撃せ！！ Super special information about the 5th movie! Witness the ultimate Side of the yokai!!

-

妖怪ウォッチエルダ神の力で 妖怪が”神”になる！！ With the power of the Yokai Watch Eruda Jin, yokai turn into 'gods'!!

(Note: The kanji 神 in the name of this Watch means “God”, and is specifically pronounced as “Jin” here.)

シンとともに活躍するイツキが使う「妖怪ウォッチエルダ神」。 この新ウォッチによって、 かわいい姿のともだち妖怪たちが、 神々しい最強の姿へ变化するぞ！！ 神の力を得たゴッドサイド妖怪が くり広げる衝撃のバトルに期待せよ！！ The "Yokai Watch Eruda Jin" is used by Itsuki, who plays an active role alongside Shin. With this new Watch, the yokai friends turn from their cute forms into their strongest forms!! Expect for shocking battles to unfold with the divine powers of the Godside yokai!!

-

主人公シンは 妖怪ウォッチエルダ零で ともだち妖怪を召喚！！ The protagonist Shin summons yokai friends with the Yokai Watch Eruda Zero!!

ゴッドサイドに变化する妖怪を召喚するのは、 「エルダ零」を使うシンの役目！！ シンとイツキの親友コンビが協力して、 妖魔界でくり広げられるバトル大会を戦うことに！！ Shin's role is to use the Yokai Watch Eruda Zero to summon the yokai that transform into Godside!! With Shin and Itsuki's best friend combo, they fight in the battles that unfold in the Yomakai's tournament!!

-

これが妖怪ウォッチエルダ神！！！

神の力をコントロールできる妖怪ウォッチ。 カバーに描かれたオオカミの姿に秘密！？

This is the Yokai Watch Eruda Jin!!!

A Yokai Watch that can control the power of gods. The appearance of the wolves on the cover hides a secret?!

(Note: This is just me speculating, but I can’t help but notice that the two wolves seems to resemble the Koma brothers?)

-

猫又が变化！

猫王 バステト

古代エジプト王族のような姿の、 偉大な猫妖怪！！ Nekomata transforms!

The Cat King Bastet

A great cat yokai, resembling the ancient royal families of egypt!!

(Note: Name and inspiration seem clearly taken from the Egyptian goddess Bastet)

-

河童が变化！

河童王 サゴジョウ

頼りない河童が、 究極の戦闘力を手に入れた姿だ！！ Kappa transforms!!

The Kappa King Sagojō

The unreliable Kappa has obtained the ultimate fighting power!!

(Note: Name and inspiration likely taken from the Japanese name of the Journey to the West character Shā Wùjìng, who is often depicted as a kappa in Japanese.)

-

座敷童子が变化！

天狗王 クラマ

ナルシストな美少年妖怪が、 風をあやつる天狗に！！ Zashikiwarashi transforms!

The Tengu King Kurama

The narcissistic pretty boy yokai turns into a tengu that commands the winds!!

(Note: Name and inspiration likely taken from Mount Kurama, said to have been the home of Sōjōbō, the mythical king of the tengu.)

--

And now we have these pages:

(image source)

These pages introduce a whole bunch of Arks, which will be included with the 3rd Yokai Ark set.

-

First we go over the upper right, focusing on the Arc of Zashiki-warashi.

黄金&レジェンド妖怪アークを見逃すな！！

お宝ぞろいの第３弾の中でも注目なのが この２本！！ どちらもただ事ではない輝きだ！！

Don't miss out on the Golden and Legendary Yokai Arks!!

Even among the 3rd set that's full of treasures, these two are especially notable!! Both of them are nothing ordinary, they are shining!!

ついに発覚！！ ”最後”の黄金妖怪アーク！！ ４本存在する黄金の妖怪アーク１つ。「妖怪ウォッチ４」で詠みこむと、スゴいことが起こるとのウワサが？！ Discovered at last!! The 'final' Golden Yokai Ark!! This is one of the four Golden Yokai Arks that exist. Supposedly something great will happen when you use it in Yokai Watch 4?!

座敷童子 古い家に住む子ども妖怪と思いきや、 実は美少年！！ Zashiki-warashi (Gnomey) Thought to be a child yokai living in old houses, but is actually a pretty boy!!

(Note: Zashiki-warashi is the same kind of yokai that was called “Gnomey” in English. This specific Zashiki-warashi was previously shown off in other pre-release materials.)

-

Next I’ll go over the upper left side, showing off Bushinyan’s Ark.

伝説再び！！ レジェンド妖怪アーク発見参！！

あのブシニャンが妖怪アークになって帰ってきた！！ 黄金の妖怪アークとは、 またひと味ちがった輝きを放つ、 超激レアランクの１本だ！！

The legend returns!! Take part in the discovery of a Legendary Yokai Ark!!

Bushinyan himself returns as a Yokai Ark!! It is slightly different from Golden Yokai Arks, it shines and is of the Super Extreme Rare Rank!!

ブシニャン 伝説の刀で的を 一刀両断するレジェンド武士妖怪！！ Bushinyan (Shogunyan) A Legendary samurai yokai who cuts his enemies in two with a single stroke of his legendary katana!!

-

DXゲンブ法天斧&妖怪アークセット登場！！

剣と斧の２つのモードを持つ、 玄武の妖聖剣！！ 魁メラメライオンのアークも付属だ。

New DX Genbu Hōtenfu & Yokai Ark Set!!

Genbu's Yōseiken, which has a sword and an axe mode!! Sakigake Merameraion's Ark is included as well.

(Notes:

ゲンブ法天斧/Genbu Hōtenfu means something like “Genbu Lawful Heaven Axe”. Genbu is the Japanese name of Xuánwǔ.

This is the third Yōseiken toy to be released. You can see the images showing off how you can turn the sword into an axe by pushing up the hilt.

Like the Yokai Ark Holder and the Suzaku Sōtenzan, it comes with an Ark that is the special form of a pre-existing yokai.

From what I understand, 魁/Sakigake refers to something like leading, being a leader, charging ahead, etc.

The set will appearently be released around November, for 1382 Yen.)

-

土蜘蛛

はるか昔から活躍する 由緒正しい伝統妖怪。

Tsuchigumo (Arachnus)

-

コマじろう

コマさんの弟。 口ぐせは「もんゲーロー！」。

Komajiro

Komasan's younger brother. His catchphrase is "Mongero!"

(Note: “Mongero!” is a combination of “gero”, which refers to a frogs croaking, and “monge!” meaning something like “amazin’“, which is the catchphrase of the Koma brothers in the original Yokai Watch.)

-

雷オトン

怒ると雷を落とすガンコ親父妖怪。

--

That’s it for this month’s issue of the main Corocoro, but I also saw some interesting bits from the most recent issue of Corocoro Ichiban.

You can see them right here, it bascially shows off most of the Arks from the now released 2nd Ark set.

I don’t have the time to translate all of this, it’s mostly old information anyway, so I will just go over points of interest.

-

Most notably this seems to confirm that some of the previously unseen symbols are indeed meant for tribes.

Shuten-dōji and Dōketsu are both of the “Oni Tribe”, represented by this symbol:

In the past, the term Oni Tribe had been used to refer to oni yokai in general, without it being an actual tribe. But this time around it really seems to be one.

And Kaira is of the “Izana Tribe”, represented by this symbol:

The Onimaro Trio is still classified as being of the “Kaima Tribe”, called “Wicked Tribe” in English. The Onimaro were also called Kaima in the movie and classified as such in Puni Puni.

In this case, this is the symbol used for them:

I think it’s still possible these are going to be “special” tribes with only a few Yokai in them, like the Wicked, Enma and Hagure tribes were in the past.

-

ロボニャン００ Robonyan 00 (read: Robonyan Double O)

ツクモノ族 Tsukumono Tribe

ロボット掃除機 から生まれた妖怪。 A yokai born from a robot vacuum cleaner.

(Note: It could also be seen on the merchandise website, but this Ark reveals that Robonyan 00′s Lightside is indeed another Robonyan 00, instead of Almighty-kun from the episode. Though the robot is alluded to in the description.)

-

オロチ Orochi (Venoct)

ゴーリキ族 Gōriki Tribe

強敵を求めさすらう エリート妖怪。 A wandering elite yokai, seeking powerful enemies.

(Note: This one could also be seen on the website, but here we get an actual description, plus we get a bit of a closer look.)

-

メラメライオン Merameraion (Blazion)

ゴーリキ族 Gōriki Tribe

炎と闘志を激しく 燃やす獅子妖怪。 A burning lion yokai, with fierce flames and fighting spirit.

--

And that’s it for this month.

As always, I hope you’ve found this useful and/or interesting!

Todo Heisuke - 2010 Japanese Wiki Entry

From the Japanese-English Bilingual Corpus of Wikipedia’s Kyoto Articles . This is a translation from Todo Heisuke’s Japanese wiki entry, exactly as it was in 2010. It is taken from PNM0086 in that collection.

For information on the database and how to use it, please check this post.

Just like English wikipedia, none of this information is guaranteed to be accurate. It’s not a current version of the Japanese article either.

Todo Heisuke’s  article here is full of speculation and theories, organized a bit hap-hazardly. All the speculation is unsurprising, given the rumours of his birth and his early death, without any family to keep his memory green. The last section, titled “Existence Theory” should really be translated “Survival Theory.” It’s a far-fetched theory that Todo Heisuke actually survived and lived on, which of course is the sort of thing fiction like Hakuouki adopts.

The translated sentences used in this service contain English contents which are translated by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) from Japanese sentences on Wikipedia.

Heisuke TODO

Heisuke TODO (1844 - December 13, 1867) was a captain of the 8th troop of the Shinsengumi (special police). He later joined the breakaway Goryoeji (also known as the Kodaiji Party.) He seems to have been a single-minded youth who supported the sonno-joi (literally "Revere the Emperor, Expel the Barbarians") movement.

According to Mikisaburo SUZUKI, his comrade in the Goryoeji, Todo was of a typical Edo-ite and a motivated worker and there are several records showing that he was familiar with economics and had also mastered kenjutsu (he excelled in both academics and martial arts). In addition, since there is a description of him as 'misbehaved, but level-headed,' he may have been witty due to his Edo upbringing. As for his appearance, there is a record of a rumor that he was a short and handsome man.

Was he an illegitimate child of the Todo, Izumi no kami (military governor of Izumi)?

He was from Edo, Musashi Province. His formal name was Yoshitora. In Shinpachi NAGAKURA's "Doshi Renmeiki" (nominal list of the Shinsengumi) and in the "Fubungaki" (report of rumor), which was written when he was in Kyoto, Heisuke TODO is described as an illegitimate child of Takayuki TODO, the lord of Tsu Domain, Ise Province, but the truth is unknown.

It is also said that he was a son of Yakura TODO, a karo (high-ranking samurai) of Isehisai Domain, which was a branch of Tsu Domain, and that his alias 'Heisuke' derived from the name of a Todo family vassal.

One reason for this theory is that Todo's long-handled sword (naginata) was inscribed with the signature of the Todo family's in-house swordsmith, Kazusa no suke Kaneshige (according to "Aizu-hancho Shinsengumi goikko katana kai hikae"). Todo's sword was apparently high quality. But it is said to have been ruined in the fierce fighting of the Ikedaya Incident.  However, given that a sword made by Kazusa no suke Kaneshige would have been expensive and not one which a mere ronin (masterless samurai) could have possessed, it is highly possible that he was an illegitimate child of the lord.

He is said to have been a certified practitioner of the Hokushin Itto school sword style.It is generally believed that he was a student at Chiba SHUSAKU's dojo, the Genbukan, but later his comrade in the Goryoeji, Washio KANO, said that he was a 'favored disciple of the Ito-dojo' operated by Kashitaro ITO in Fukagawa. However, the details are unknown since there are no detailed historical documents about the Ito-dojo. In any event, he dropped out of the dojo for unknown reasons before being granted a license.

Sakigake Sensei

As a so-called natural-born soldier from Isami KONDO's dojo, the Shieikan, he was a member of the Shinsengumi from its inception. He was a short, handsome and valiant man.  He was a skilled swordsman, becoming known,along with Soji OKITA and Shinpachi NAGAKURA, as 'Kondo's Four Kings' and is said to have walked at the front during patrols.This appears to be the reason for his nickname, Sakigake (literally one who charges ahead) Sensei.

Although he was good-mannered, his behavior was inappropriate. When he was in the Goryoeji, he assumed the leadership of 300 vigilantes. He seems to have been warned about his behavior by Kondo since he was a student at the Shieikan, and there is a description that Kondo gradually kept the ill-behaved Todo at a distance.

There are no historical documents showing any remarkable activity while he was in the Shinsengumi. Todo may have attended to visitors or done clerical work in the office because he seems to have learned etiquette at the Hokushin Itto school dojo, where relationships between superiors and inferiors were strict.

During the Ikedaya Incident, he was slashed in the forehead when he carelessly removed his hachigane (helmet). Until then, he had been fighting so bravely that his sword was ruined, the junction of its blade with the guard being irreparably cracked. After the incident, and following Isami KONDO and Toshizo HIJIKATA, he was given reward money by the Shogunate (he is said to have hesitated to receive the money).

In November 1864, the Shinsengumi recruited new members in Edo on a large scale. Prior to that, Todo had gone to Edo to solicit candidates. Kano, who frequented the Ito-dojo at that time, said that Todo came to invite new members in early September. He seems to have associated with the master of this dojo, Taizo ITO (later Kashitaro ITO), for some time.

Goryoeji

When was the turning point in Todo's life? In February, 1865. Socho (general commander) Keisuke YAMANAMI, who had been in the Shinsengumi with Todo since its founding and who was a fellow disciple of Hojushin Itto school, deserted and committed seppuku. (Some people question whether Yamanami really deserted.)   It is not known how this affected his life but, in March 1867, he left the Shinsengumi together with Kashitaro ITO in order to form the Goryoeji (Kodai-ji-to). 

There are no explicit documents regarding his actions in 1866, but on the day of leaving the Shinsengumi, he seems to have been in Mino Province on business. It would appear that he met Yataro MIZUNO, a kyokaku in Mino, in order to lay the groundwork for the future since Mizuno was committed to support him by providing militia for the Goryoeji later. The Goryoeji seem to have joined up with other followers immediately after returning from Mino.

Also, no records about his activities in the Goryoeji exist. However, judging from the fact that Todo changed his name to 'Yashichiro NANBU (sometimes he identified himself as Yahachiro),' he may have been hiding because he was worried about the bad influence, caused by his reputation in the Shinsengumi, on his comrades' activity. The Goryoeji went campaigning in various places such as Ise and western areas, but there is no sign that Todo was involved. The only existing record is that he visited Yataro MIZUNO, a kyokaku in Mino and commanded 300 militiamen who were mainly bakuto (itinerant gamblers). On December 13, 1867, he was killed by the Shinsengumi in Aburanokoji (known as the Aburakoji Incident).

According to Shinpachi NAGAKURA ("Shinsengumi Tenmatsuki"), he heard Kondo saying, 'I'd like to keep Todo alive' (since this is an excerpt from a serialized newspaper article using posthumous discourse by a newspaper reporter in the late Meiji period, long after the Meiji Restoration, it is highly possible that this is a fictitious story) so he cleared the way and let Todo get away but Tsunesaburo MIURA, who was unaware of the situation, cut him down. (There is a different theory. According to the "Tenmatsuki," Miura felt such remorse for his actions in Aburanokoji that the wound made by Todo got worse, until sick in mind and body, he died but in the "Doshi Renmeiki" by Shinpachi NAGAKURA, he died near Osaka during the Boshin War.

According to the "Shinsengumi Shimatsuki" by Kan SHIMOZAWA, Todo understood Nagakura's intention, but he couldn't throw away his pride or abandon his comrades, so he fought against the Shinsengumi and was cut down by Tsunesaburo MIURA. Also, it is said that he was cut down from behind by Tsunesaburo MIURA when he understood Nagakura's intention and tried to leave. Therefore, there is a theory that Todo fought back until he died from the number of wounds.

According to the postmortem report, he was cut from the forehead to nose and the wound was approximately 21cm in length and 6cm in depth, thus he died instantly. His tombstone is inscribed as he died at the age of 24. The tombstone is located in Kaiko-ji Temple and he was buried together with Kashitaro ITO, Kenmotsu MONAI and Takeo HATTORI, who were his comrades and died on the same day.

The last tanka he read is thought to be "A brave man made a pledge of loyalty to the Emperor for seven generations and kept his pledge."

Existence theory

According to 'Heisuke Todo of Aburakoji' by Haruo TANI in the November 1980 issue of 'History and Travel' (Rekisi to Tabi), Todo narrowly escaped death and broke out of the encirclement. It's not known exactly how, but he is said to have later lived in Yokohama City and often stopped by Manpuku-ji Temple in Odawara, maybe because a relative's daughter had married into the temple family. In Yokohama, he made money on the concession relating to water supply works together with Yoshisuke KONDO, a former member of the Shinsengumi. He passed away Yokohama in 1922 or 1923. He had a son, but his name is unknown.

sakigake! music ♡ 170802 translation: mredwardsanders it seems like the shinee members, onew-san and jonghyun-san, came to see this concert. we heard that they cheered for you wearing (your) taemin-san's t-shirt. taemin: right. (laughs) it's strange / rare, really. they came wearing my merch in full gear, but they looked good in them, didn't they? they're people who look pretty good in my merch. (laughs) [caption] any advice from the two? taemin: they also watched me during rehearsal and [told me] things like: "if you do this i think you'd be able to reach the [audience] better." for example, [i was holding] the mic far away [from my mouth] so they told me that it'd be better if i brought myself closer to it to sing. they told me how i looked from behind and about my posture. that they made their way to cheer for me, really, my heart was so full. so, i thought that i have to be nicer to the members from now on. [translator's note: the translator wasn't really sure what taemin meant by "rare / uncommon". he may have meant that it was "strange" or "atypical" for one member of a group to come support another member's concert wearing their merch. so, the translator generally assumes that he may have meant that something like that doesn't happen often with groups, ie: one member of a group decking themselves out in full concert merchandise gear for the concert of another member of the same group, etc.]
