  • About Zen Bu Kan
    About Zen Bu Kan Zen Bu Kan is an iaido dojo of the Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu lineage located in Salt Lake City, Utah. Zen Bu Kan was started by Jules Harris Sensei. Having studied in New York, Harris Sensei moved to Utah to study Zen at the renowned Kanzeon Zen Center in Salt Lake City. A scholar, warrior, and spiritual leader; Harris Sensei taught without thought of personal gain, only to pass on the lineage. He moved back East, to Pennsylvania, to further his spiritual studies. Zen Bu Kan is now led by his students Jason Hankins Sensei and Dick Beckstead Sensei. More recently, Zen Bu Kan has begun to teach kendo under the direction of Robert Stroud Sensei, 7th dan renshi. Stroud Sensei leads a dojo in Boise, Idaho, and serves as a kendo mentor and instructor to Zen Bu Kan’s sensei. Iaido students at Zen Bu Kan begin by learning the basic fundamentals of iaido. Having learned the fundamentals, students then begin to learn the twelve Seitei kata. The Seitei kata are the standard by which iaido practitioners (iaidoka) world-wide begin their training and upon which they are tested. Eventually, students move on to learn the Omori-Ryu and Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu kata. Zen Bu Kan does not operate for profit and is solely supported by its students at cost. This allows the school to keep the price of tuition to a minimum, but it also means that the school is heavily dependant upon its students to remain in operation. The students form both the body and the support staff of the school.

  • Juno 25, 1945 Shibutani 1. While I Was Showing My Identification, to Have a Che6'k Cashed in One of the Booths on 6
    Field Notes: Juno 25, 1945 Shibutani 1. While I was showing my identification, to have a che6'k cashed in one of the booths on 65rd Street, I overheard one clerk who was reading my card, *Is he one of them Japs?" The other turned around and indicated that she didn't know and gave me my money. 2. Tomi and I walked into Pixley and Ellers cafeteria and as we walked in the man at the front very politely handed us our tickets on which the amount of mono we spend is stamped. Since it was rather late at night there was not much food left so we decided to leave without buying anything. As wo walked out, leaving the unstamped ticket with him, he said in a loud voice, "What in the hell did those dirty Japs come in her for, if they didn't ant to buy anything?" 3. Out of desperation, because we were getting very hungry, we walked into Gimbol's restaurant without realizing how expensive the place was. As we walked in the head waitress came to ard us with her nose pointed in the usual direction and said, as usual, Table for two?' It was at that time that she noticed that we were orientals and she seemed ^o be stunned for a moment. It seemed that she did not know what to do and for a half minute stood there look­ ing very helpless. She looked over to the cashier, but the cashier was busy. After this momentary hesitation, she turned around and led un to a table in the corner.

  • Boys Love Comics As a Representation of Homosexuality in Japan
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Japanskt mál og menning Boys love Comics as a Representation of Homosexuality in Japan Ritgerð til BA-prófs í japönsku máli og menningu Brynhildur Mörk Herbertsdóttir Kt.: 190994-2019 Leiðbeinandi: Gunnella Þorgeirsdóttir Maí 2018 1 Abstract This thesis will focus on a genre of manga and anime called boys love, and compare it to the history of homosexuality in Japan and the homosexual culture in modern Japanese society. The boys love genre itself will be closely examined to find out which tropes are prevalent and why, as well as what its main demographic is. The thesis will then describe the long history of homosexuality in Japan and the similarities that are found between the traditions of the past and the tropes used in today’s boys love. Lastly, the modern homosexual culture in Japan will be examined, to again compare and contrast it to boys love. 2 Table of Contents Introduction ......................................................................................................................................... 4 Boys love: History, tropes, and common controversies ....................................................................... 6 Stylistic appearance and Seme Uke in boys love ............................................................................ 8 Boys love Readers‘ Demography .................................................................................................... 9 History of male homosexual relationships in Japan and the modern boys love genre ...................... 12

  • Budo Q&A 2021
    Budo Q&A 2021 March/April/May/June By Louis Vitalis Introduction • Budo is more than techniques training; • Shape your character, knowledge, position within (budo)society • A pandemic shouldn’t stop us from training those other aspects • So let’s ask our highest grade European sensei! Louis Vitalis sensei – kyoshi 7th dan kendo, -- kyoshi 7th dan jodo, -- kyoshi 7th dan iaido Guidelines for the Q&A • MUTE! So we can all enjoy Vitalis sensei’s talk • Questions: • Put them in the Google Form so we add them to the list for Vitalis sensei • Slides will be shared after the meeting, please handle with care Enjoy, learn, train! KATEI ENMAN 家庭円満 • Katei = Household, Ones home • Enman = Peaceful • Although this is not specific Budo terminology, it’s the first concept that my Kendo teacher Edo Kokichi taught me in 1979, during my second visit to Japan. • Wether your target in Budo is winning gold medals or obtaining higher dan grades, you will not be successful unless your home situation is stable. Additional stress will make it more difficult to focus on Budo. GEI NI ASOBU 藝於游 Kodokan building in Mito City, Ibaraki Ken GEI NI ASOBU 藝於游 • Gei = Art (as in Martial Art) • Asobu = Enjoy • The Kodokan was a kind of General University, where Samurai of the Region received Education in both Martial Arts and other arts and sciences. This saying was favoured by the 9th Daimyo of the Mito Han, Tokugawa Nariaki (1800-1860). • By this time, Martial Arts were no longer needed to kill an enemy, but it was already shifting from Jutsu to Do as we now know it.

Introduction The influx of the Japanese and their American-born children to the Mid-west has been, until recently, in such small numbers that v/e cannot speak of it in terms of waves of migration. The vanguard came many decades ago from the Pacific Coast and had long before the war made their homes in this area* After the attack on Pearl Harbor many migrated voluntarily in order to escape evacuation. D uring the fall of 1942 and early in 1933, a few more appeared in the area, most to attend schools. The migration in large numbers did not begin until the spring and summer of 1943 when the governmental policy became that of getting as many people out of relocation centers as possible.

  • Ono Ha Ittō Ryū (小野派一刀流)
    Ono Ha Ittō Ryū (小野派一刀流) Guy Buyens Introduction In August 2011, in San Diego, I had the chance to participate in an Ono Ha Itto-ryu seminar with Sasamori Takemi, 17th Soke, and Hirata Tomihiko, his assistant. The host group was the "Kokusai Nippon Budokai", headed by Participants at the Ono ha Itto Ryu seminar (San Shimabukuro Masayuki Sensei (Jikishinkai). Diego, 2011) with Sasamori soke and Hirata Tomihiko I had seen demonstrations of Ono Ha Itto-ryu with Sasamori Takemi Soke before (their school also participated in the 32th event of The Nihon Kobudo Kyokai held in Tokyo in 2009, where we also had the chance to demonstrate with our soke and members of the sohonbu dojo of Hontai Yoshin Ryu). I was convinced that studying and understanding a kenjutsu school like Ono Ha Itto-ryu, could be beneficial in order to improve sword skills and bring the kumidachi in our bojutsu to a higher level, so I decided to follow a seminar with Sasamori Soke. Although a seminar of 3 days is not enough to get introduced into a system, it was certainly the ideal forum to get inspired. The time spent on the basis (kihon, etiquette) was highly appreciated and made this seminar very exceptional. Back in Europe, together with 2 friends (both involved in iai-do and kendo), I started to train techniques from the seminar in the hope to preserve what I learned from the seminar and always looking forward to meet Sasamori soke again. In the meantime we also had the chance to train with André Feik, who trained several years in the Reigakudo (the dojio of Sasamori soke) in Tokyo, but who now lives in Germany again.
