  • Hiro Club News
    Hiro Club News For your cultural life in Hiroshima おにぎり Onigiri (Rice Balls) Onigiri are Japan’s most popular picnic food. They are eaten with the fingers. They are made by firmly moding rice into triangular, round, or cylindrical shapes in the palms of the hands. Sometimes a mold is used to press the rice into shape. In the Kanto area (east Japan) triangular rice balls were standard, while in Kansai (west Japan) they were usually cylindrical. Many kinds of onigiri are sold by boxed-lunch vendors and at convenience stores and onigiri specialty shops. They’re one of the popular lunches. (Abstracted from The Japanese-English Dictionary for Conversation about Japan, p. 107, Obunsha) The standard ingredients people used to put in onigiri were pickled plums (umeboshi), dried shaved bonito (okaka), and broiled salted salmon (sake). Then, they were wrapped with a dried piece of seaweed (nori). But now, various kinds of ingredients such as tuna with mayonnaise and broiled beef are put in onigiri. Rice goes well with almost all food because the rice itself has no special taste. Yakionigiri is also a popular onigiri. The surface of a rice ball is covered with soy sauce and toasted until it is golden brown. Hot, freshly toasted onigiri smell great and are a popular thing to eat after drinking. Having a picnic under cherry trees is a Japan’s typical picnic style in Japan. The best season to have a picnic is now! Why not go outside with some onigiri and enjoy spring in Japan?

    Losing Two Daughters in the A-bombing Makie Fujii 1 Situation before the A-bombing My family lived on the river bank about 100 meters east of the Yokogawa Bridge at 1-chome in Yokogawa-cho. At that time, my family consisted of four members: my husband (Kiyoshi) and me, our three-year-old eldest daughter Kazuko, and a half-year-old youngest daughter Kiyomi. Before the A-bombing, whenever a red alert siren went off, I would run into a pit that had been dug underground, taking my two children with me. This happened repeatedly for many days and is still vivid in my memory. Damage from the A-bombing On the morning of August 6, my husband took the day off from work and was staying home because he had received call-up papers. Since the red alert had been canceled, my children and I were playing tag upstairs in our house. Suddenly, a burning fireball flew into our house with a thud from a window. At that moment, my children and I started falling down like being sucked into an abyss. My eldest daughter was shouting under my feet, “Mommy, I’m here. Mommy, I’m here.” “Kazuko-chan, mommy will get you out of there. Hang on,” I called out to her but couldn’t move even my neck because every part of my body was stuck between walls and various things in our house. Before long, I heard my husband calling my name from above. “Makieeee, where are you? Makieeee…,” while he seemed to be walking around in search of us.

    hiro club news For your cultural life in Hiroshima 招き猫 Maneki-neko (beckoning cat) Ornamental maneki-neko (beckoning cats) have been popular since the middle of the Edo period (1603- 1868) as good-luck talismans. Made of clay, porcelain, papier-mâché, wood, or plastic, they are believed to bring good business to shops and restaurants. They are also often displayed as a sign of welcome in the genkan entrance of houses. The cat is sitting, but its tail is usually not visible. One of its paws is lifted close to its ear. It is beckoning in Japanese style – with the palm facing outward rather than the palm-inward style of Western beckoning. There are two basic types: cats with the right-paw raised are believed to bring good luck in business finance; those with the left-paw raised are for welcoming customers or guests. The length of the paw varies – the longer it is, the greater the reach of fortune. There are a few with both paws raised, but many people steer clear of them saying that it’s not wise to be too greedy. Many maneki-neko are based on a tortoiseshell cat appearance and are painted white with red ears and collars, a color connected with the good health of children (Abstracted from 『ニッポン風物詩』, p63, IBC パブリ ッシング). Some exhibitions related to maneki-neko and cats will be held this spring (see the Museums section for more information). The special exhibition of Onomichi City Museum of Art is an unique exhibition to introduce cat-themed art works from the Edo Period (A.D.
