    Hi, thank you very much for your detailed feedback as always. I am glad that I made only minor mistakes this time. Actually, I am on a train to go to my parents’ house. I will stay there for three days as my husband is too busy with his work and it is getting difficult for him to help me with taking care of my baby. It is first time for me to get on a train with my baby girl, but it is easier than I thought.

    Thank you for the correction. But I don't understand difference "suicide" and "ritual suicide". Of course, Hideyoshi ordered two Portuguese's missionaries to death because he denied christianity despite some shogun had already joined catholic. He was frightened people would look toward christianity. I think the ruler you watched on the film was a man of region branch under Hideyoshi. Today's text is the last of Hanaikusa. Best regards

    Thank you for your detailed feedback as always. Wrapping up the mistake I made is also helpful. I can be more careful not to make the same kind of mistakes. Yes, it was true that some of the masks that the government distributed were not good quality.

    Thank you for your message. Yes, I have seen the film" Silence". the fame of Endo Shusaku is not only because of being outstanding novelist but also being christianity. Because the percentage of christianity has not exceeded over 1% from its arrival to Japan until now, the way of thinking from christianity is very rare and esteemed. No, that ruler in the film was not Hideyoshi. First, his death was 1598 because of illness. So it is supposed he was in his castle to be looked after. Second, Nagasaki, the stage of the film, is too far to visit. It may took more than ten days to go and back. It is impossible to have castle empty for those days. Although the impact of the story of Silent was heavy to christianity, for the Japan's political leaders, what the two missionaries had done was worthless incident. But the fact is that Hideyoshi declared to ban catholic in 1597. Best regards

    the first question that means that inquiring the state of person. In short, questioning what you really think in mind. the last question Sennorikyu could apologize Toyotomi and if he did so, he could survive. But Sennorikyu could not. Sennorikyu was so loved other warriors and, since he had no confidence that he ruled Japan. So Toyotomi was absolutely scared because if Sennorikyu prefered, he could gather and became rebel. Furthermore, Toyotomi felt that Sennorikyu could not Toyotomi's sense of beauty. Because Toyotomi liked decorative ceremony, but on the other hand, Sennorikyu prefered plain and simple ceremony. He chosen die an honorable death. Sorry my sentence might confuse you.

    Thank you Elle for your assistance! "Most journals advise authors not to start any sentence with an abbreviation or a number. " I didn't know that! Thank you! Rika

    thank you. We also use the ward "achilles" as the weakest point. I read up about achilles and Troy war, and what I couldn't believe is that the troy war have lasted more than 10 years, which is incredibly so long. I n comparison with Japan's war, even the biggest battle in Japan in Warring states period "sekigahara war" lasted only 6hours. The battle, which 80,000 vs 80,000 warriors, started from dawn and ended just noon and ended the loser 10,000 in death and winner lost 7,000 in death. That war concluded the capital moved from West to East which is Tokyo. Best regards
