  • How the World Ought to Work
    How the World Ought to Work By D.G. Laderoute “Seppun-san,” Akodo Toturi asked, “why, exactly, are we here?” A restrained patience tightened Seppun Ishikawa’s reply, like he was answering a child. “Once again, Akodo-san, we are going to meet someone.” Toturi narrowed his eyes. He’d been to the Higashikawa District perhaps one other time in his life, but was put off by its freewheeling, garish, commercial character. The racket of street vendors and merchants, hawking what struck him as mostly junk, clamored around them. At least the rabble was good at distracting itself, barely glancing at the two of them, apparently unremarkable rōnin in drab kimonos and broad, conical straw hats. Toturi kept his gaze on Ishikawa. He was tempted to simply command him to stop being so enigmatic, and actually answer the damned question; being the Emerald Champion, he could do that. But he didn’t, because it might upset their fragile…not friendship. Relationship, at best. In the past three weeks, that relationship had settled into an equilibrium, albeit one as delicate as dragonfly wings. The fact was, Toturi needed Ishikawa. The Seppun provided him a window into the politics and bureaucracy of the Imperial court, one he wouldn’t otherwise have, at least as long as he sought to anonymously track his would-be assassins. Three weeks had also given them no leads beyond ruling out a few, admittedly unlikely, perpetrators. Ishikawa slowed as a crowd spilled out of a shabby sake house called Bitter Oblivion. The resulting commotion gave Toturi a chance to lean close to the Seppun and speak.

  • LL-L5R Rules.Pdf
    A few months ago, the Empress of Rokugan’s third child, Iweko Miaka, came of age. This instantly made her the most eligible maiden in the Empire, and prominent samurai from every clan and faction have set out to court her. Of course, in Rokugan marriage is a matter of duty and politics far more often than love, but the personal affection of a potential spouse can be a very effective tool in marriage negotiations. And when that potential spouse is an Imperial princess, her affection can be more influential than any number of political favors. 2 Of course, winning a princess’ heart is hardly an easy task in the tightly- monitored world of the Imperial Palace. The preferred tool of courtly romance in Rokugan is the letter, and every palace’s corridors are filled with the soft steps of servants carrying letters back and forth. But such letters can be intercepted by rivals or turned away by hostile guards. For a samurai to succeed in his suit, he will have to find ways of getting his own letters into Miaka’s hands – while blocking the similar efforts of rival suitors. 3 Object In the wake of many recent tragic events, Empress Iweko I has sought to bring a note of joy back to the Imperial City, Toshi Ranbo, by announcing the gempukku (coming- of-age) of her youngest child and only daughter, Iweko Miaka. Prominent samurai throughout the Imperial City have immediately started to court the Imperial princess, whose hand in marriage would be a prize beyond price in Rokugan.

  • Chapter One by Robert Denton III
    Chapter One By Robert Denton III 9th Day of the Month of Togashi, 1123, on the shores of Cherry Blossom Snow Lake Hida Sukune knew the battle was lost the instant a spear broke through his father’s armor and pierced his belly. Kisada only noticed the wound after he’d flung his opponent screaming from the side of the battlements. He collapsed like the fortress gates, blood running free like the fire. The grim honor guard formed a circle around him, and as they withdrew, Kisada would not look at his son. It was later said that the Castle of the Forgotten fell only after the Great Bear did. Kyūden Hida’s halls thundered with the wet hasty script of rushed scribes and scrolls rolled before the ink fully dried. Heralds would carry them to the Great Clan families, to the Imperial Palace, and beyond. They would learn the Crab’s shame and be warned of what was coming. It is my failure, not yours. Kisada’s words echoed in Sukune’s head even now. Yakamo had protested. If the other clans had heeded the Crab—if they’d sent the jade, the resources, then… Kisada’s wound left him unable to fight. You must lead now, Sukune. Redeem the clan. Do what you can. Stop Akuma’s march. At any cost. Sukune banished the memory and traced the invaders’ course on the map. Akuma no Oni’s forces had an uncontested path straight to Otosan Uchi. But he wasn’t going there. Instead, the horde marched northwest, to the Shinomen Forest.

    Notes Introduction 1. The members’ only Fu-zoku Shiryo-kan (not very helpfully translated into English on their website as Perverts Museum) is an initiative set up by Takakura Ichiji, a former editor of postwar sexology magazine Fu-zoku kitan (Strange tales of moral customs), and houses a large collection of postwar sex- ology magazines and erotica. For more on Takakura, see Nagae, “Adaruto-kei shuppansha no ru-tsu,” 12. 2. The description refers to Shioda, “Kimi shiru.” 3. See their website: http://www.lib.umd.edu/prange/index.jsp.

  • HINDSIGHT an Adventure of Forewarning and Forearming
    HINDSIGHT An Adventure of Forewarning and Forearming by Chris and Jennifer Hepler "An odd lot, those tattooed men, always considering destiny immutable, yet history, a matter of opinion." -- Kitsuki Yasu Looking for a vacation from the austere and the monastic? The Mantis Isles are a leisure spot unparalleled in Rokugan. See the gaudy palaces and ancient ruins, pristine beaches and exotic wildlife. Sample their unusual cuisine, explore the colorful coral reefs, and while you're at it, look for a murdered monk. The Kitsuki say an ise zumi hasn't returned from the islands and the Mantis daimyo isn't talking. The only name anyone will mention is Togashi Akuro, a renegade Dragon whose faces change with the day. But surely your samurai have seen this performance before. The criminal mind is the same, whether the charge is robbery, forgery, or murder. All your magistrates need do is to deduce the motive, method, and opportunity of the villain, and the pieces will fall into place. They can apprehend and subdue him just as soon as they know when and where he will strike next. It's a very simple mission. The only problem is keeping it that way. * Suitable for 4-6 player characters of Ranks 3-4, approximately 2-4 bushi, 1-2 shugenja, and 1-2 courtiers. Especially appropriate for characters with the Great Destiny advantage, the Dark Fate flaw, or a Kharmic Tie. * Not recommended for characters with the Rank 3 Kitsuki Magistrate Technique; while not destructive to the plot, it will advance it very quickly and remove a great deal of suspense.

  • Chapter One: to Lead and to Follow by D.G
    Chapter One: To Lead and To Follow By D.G. Laderoute 8th Day of the Month of Hida, 1123, Toshi Ranbo Surely, they must be able to hear my heart beating. “My lady,” Bayushi Yojiro said from where he knelt in the tea house, “your request for us to meet you here was framed in a most informal way. That certainly does not match your current demeanor.” Bayushi Kachiko stopped, snowflakes on her cloak becoming glistening beads of water in the warmth of the tea house. She acknowledged that she’d heard Yojiro with brief eye contact, but her gaze locked on that of the other occupant, Doji Hotaru. Hotaru can hear it, my heart. She knows that I’m afraid. Hotaru had tensed, reflexively readying herself for battle, like the warrior she was. “Kachiko, what is it? What’s wrong?” Kachiko had rehearsed what to say for her entire walk through the winter garden of the Toshi Ranbo Governor’s Palace. Yet, no matter how often she repeated them in her head, she could not fit the words properly into her mouth to say them aloud. Shoju, what have you done? Eschewing any courtly nuance or subtle subtext, she blurted, “It’s Shoju. He’s reclaimed the Regency, with the support of the Lion and the Imperial Legions.” Yojiro exchanged a glance with Hotaru, then they both stood, their tea forgotten. “Reclaimed? How?” 1 1 © 2021 Fantasy Flight Games. “By seizing it with force. By spilling blood in the Forbidden City,” Kachiko said, her gaze still locked on that of Hotaru.

  • Performers, Fans and Gender Issues in the Takarazuka Revue of Contemporary Japan
    Gender Gymnastics: Performers, Fans and Gender Issues in the Takarazuka Revue of Contemporary Japan Leonie Rae Stickland, B.A. (Asian Studies) (Hons) (ANU) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University, 2004. DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any institution of tertiary education. All sources are acknowledged in footnotes and the bibliography. Leonie Rae Stickland ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the Takarazuka Revue, an all-female musical theatre company, seeking to investigate its relation to broader issues of gender in contemporary Japan. Takarazuka has simultaneously reinforced and challenged the gender norms of Japanese society for the past ninety years, and indeed provides insights into the construction of those very norms. Takarazuka takes images of masculinity and femininity from mainstream society, the media, arts and popular culture, in both Japan and other countries, and reconstructs them according to its own distinct notions of how gender should be portrayed, both on and off its stage, not only by its performers, but also by fans and creative staff. Unlike in other single-sex theatrical genres featuring cross-dressing, such as Kabuki, gender is the essential focus of every performance in Takarazuka. Takarazuka’s practices show that gender is not inherent, but must be learned through observation, imitation and direct instruction, and that various versions of male gender can be assumed for specific purposes, even temporarily, by biological females (and vice versa). Takarazuka’s relationship with gender extends well beyond the stage itself; and one of the ways in which this thesis goes beyond other studies is its focus on the whole life-course of Takarazuka performers, including their girlhood and post-retirement years.

  • ASAHIKAWA Info
    ASAHIKAWA Info November 2011 VOL. 180 November 2011 Compiled by TAKADA Nobuhiro September 28 Japan Saury Fisheries Cooperative has decided to limit offloading of saury catches by a fishing boat to twice a day. Bidding in the four fishing ports in eastern Hokkaido cannot deal with the volumes of saury brought to the market. As a result of the March 11 disaster, fishing ports in Tohoku are not yet fully functional; therefore the total annual saury catch for eastern Japan is being offloaded solely in eastern Hokkaido. October 1 Michelin Japan has announced that it will publish “The 2012 Michelin Guide for Hokkaido” next April. It will be the third Michelin guide for Japan, along with the guides for Tokyo and Kansai. TAKAHASHI Harumi, governor of Hok- kaido, stated that the publication is a significant source of information for overseas and domestic tourists regarding the allure of Hokkaido cuisine. October 1 The City of Asahikawa has announced to improve “Tokiwa Park” with the development of a “culture and art zone.” A promenade is planned to be built connecting cultural facilities, such as the art museum, to monuments in the park. The plan also includes creating a new space which links the park to the waterfront along the Ishikari River. October 2 The pro nuclear-power mayor was re-elected in the mayoral elections for Iwanai, near Otaru. Iwanai is located within 10 kilometers of the Tomari Nuclear Power Plant operated by Hokkaido Electronic Power Co, Inc. The biggest cam- paign issue was the nuclear power plant, and the election attracted nationwide attention.
