Feedback on Seven Sumurai

I watched Seven Sumrai.

It's an excellent film that has many dramas.

I want to say thank to the guy who recommended it and sent the DVD to me by Amazon.

I like the scene that Katsushiro meets to Shino for the first time and
Kanbei finally accepted farmer's offer once he rejected and he goes
'I won't waste your food. '
「この飯、おろそかには食わんぞ。」
which line became popular at the time after the movie came out.

I also like when Katsushiro says to Kyuzo,
' I think you are a great person, I've wanted to tell you that.'
Actually Kyuzo is top favorite character in some survey.
My favorite is Katsushiro.
I like Kikuchiyo fundoshi (G-string) look, he's really sexy person in that movie.
I knew him only late in his life.

I wondered why one farmer's wife who was taken by Nobushi
was so beautiful. She looked noble person and seemed to have some
important story but died within a minute.

It's classic, but worth watching!

I have seen that. It's interesting to watch both the Japanese original and the American re-make called "The Magnificent Seven."

Hiking @ Mt. Fuji

Pictures of Mt. Fuji where one of spiritual places in Japan. You can drive to halfway up the mountain. It's about two hours hiking course from there. Many people like to try climbing up Mt. Fuji. It's a popular way that people spend a night at a co ttage and start around 2am to see sun rise at the top, however I have never tried it. R einforcement work is under way as mountain slope is sliding down. I didn't make any effort, instead I just felt autumn there. It was a clear day after rainy days that took off orange osmanthus petals. Fujisan with rainbow Rain cleanses us and brings next season.

Blackout Threatened

It's very cold day. The consumption of electricity has been increasing due to heating. There's rolling blackouts due to electricity shortages caused from Fukushima nuclear power plant accident. TEPCO, Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc., divided Kanto region into five groups and have been carrying out stop electric power for a few hours in order. Plan was not informed in advance, which gave people confusion. During blackout, traffic light is out of service, there was a fatal traffic accident due to that. My friend took a photo of drinking scene under candlelight At the office, there was an emergency company broadcast at 4:30 pm today. They said 'There might be unpredictable huge blackouts tonight due to lack of supply of electricity according to METI. There will be chance of confusion of transportation therefore go home immediately'. Trains in Tokyo running every few minutes so accurately, and if there's any unusual things such as blackout, it will be a serious con...

Lost in Translation

There are frequent questions for foreigners who visit in Japan such as 'Can you use chopsticks?' or 'Do you eat Natto ?'. And relatively one of the latest might be 'Have you ever watched Lost in Translation?'. And interesting thing is that people who are familiar with Japan well or live in this country for a long time didn't really like that movie. (Including me) I was asked by my friend why, I replied that Sofia Coppola emphasized strange things of Japanese a little bit too much. The Japanese hooker didn't have to be that old woman with such degrading English. The director must have intended it to compare to the heroine who was young and a white beautiful girl. By the way, I and my other friend went to the bar at Park Hyatto in Shinjyku to experience Lost In Translation in last January. The hotel was splendid. All these three picture were being taken by her camera.
