Let’s climb Tokyo Skytree - level 60 in autumn 2023

Since you quoted Musashi Rose san, did you try “Vagabond” ? While it is a fictionalized account, it is a beautiful manga :slight_smile:

I think I’ve narrowed my profile picture choices down to two options, I’ll try to share the URLs or something:

What do you all think? As you can see I like Demon Slayer.

Pick the one you like most and remember, you’re not bound to it, you can change anytime.

Always go with Shin Megami Tensei obviously. Specifically Jack Frost. That is my strategy!

Oh yes, I missed many trains on my way to the office because of how absorbed I was in them.

I’d read them all the way up to the point I got to my desk!

If you haven’t read it, and are interested in the real story, I highly recommend The Lone Samurai: The Life of Miyamoto Musashi. It’s a well-researched account, it seems.

I even have a Japanese version of 五輪書「ごりんしょ」…

Awesome :smile:

Cool. I was planning to buy it.

I know sensei took liberties while drawing manga and the famine arc was my favorite

Of course, the Yagyu arc is a treat on its own.

The more you squint your eyes in desperation to see, the more obscured the answer becomes.

I forgive him - but I so wish he would finish the series.

I even sent him an email with ideas on how to finish the arc he left it on lol.

So good!

Woohoo! :partying_face:

TIL hour
For the entirety my life I was convinced that こづかい was 子使い for obvious reason most times it being used as pocket money in various sources. But actually (life-changing spoiler alert!) it turned to be 小遣い that uses completely different kanjis. Moreover, 小使い has completely different meaning you would never come up with.

What a feeling to know you was 惑われた all this time.

You know what I’m in it will be tough but I think a year and some change is possible.

Hey you even flamed on “cottage”, and as an English person I’m not offended at all despite having several near my house :stuck_out_tongue:

I get your frustrations, honestly I’ve never used the word ‘admonish’ in my life, and barely heard it used in my lifetime.

TBH the only word I never encountered was "ford’ which for me was only the brand. :stuck_out_tongue:
