Martial Arts: Koryu



I am sure we all know about karate – perhaps thanks to the Karate Kid series of movies. We know about aikido – thanks to Steven Segal. We know a lot of Eastern martial arts. Yet have you ever heard of koryu?

Koryu is the Japanese word used to refer to the ancient Japanese martial arts. Trust me, this is the real thing! Basically, if you translate koryu to English, you will get “old school”. Now that sounds tough, doesn’t it?
Koryu typically refers to the Japanese martial arts schools that focus on the techniques that existed way before the Meiji Restoration. That is, before the year 1866. As you can see, koryu is a very old Japanese tradition.
This term actually covers a lot of ground and even encompasses some of the better known schools of martial arts today. This includes judo and aikido. However, the latter two are modern day versions of koryu. More so, koryu includes both armed and unarmed fighting techniques.
To give you a more comprehensive background on koryu:

Although systematic training in the use of weapons, and methods for employing them in warfare existed long before, it is generally believed that the development of martial traditions, schools, or styles (ryu-ha) did not arise until after the end of the Heian period (794-1185). Central to this training was study of the bow (yumi), the sword (tachi), and the spear (yari). Initially, these weapons were not studied in separate arts. Rather, since the need was to prepare for battlefield combat, many different weapons and strategic and tactical skills were taught as part of comprehensive systems (sogo bujutsu).
From the middle of the Muromachi period (ca. 1480) to the beginning of the Tokugawa period (ca. 1605) people gradually began to specialize in a particular weapon or system, particularly the bow, spear, sword, grappling and horsemanship. Warriors gathered in family-centered groups or trained with other members of their local domains. As the techniques and methods of these groups became more and more individuated, or as teachers gained particular insights into the essential nature and principles of combat, there arose discrete martial “traditions” or “styles” or “schools” (bujutsu ryu-ha). This began happening at the beginning of the Keicho era (ca. 1600), picked up impetus throughout the Tokugawa period (1600-1868), and has continued even into the twentieth century.

JAPANESE AKITA INU

The Akita is a large Japanese breed of dog that most probably originated in the Akita Prefecture of Japan, from where it gets its name. The Akita first appeared in Japan during the 16th century and they were originally used for hunting and dog fighting. The Japanese used these dogs for various hunting activities and to hunt several different kinds of animals.

The dogs were often used to hunt bear, deer and wild boar. Both males and females were paired together as work partners.

Today, the Akita can be found in various parts of the world and is now mainly used for security. They also make wonderful pets.The Japanese are very proud of these dogs and they respect them a great deal. The Akita is a symbol of good health and wealth. There is even a monument in Japan that commemorates this breed.

Helen Keller was the first to bring an Akita to the United States in 1936.The Akita Shepherd is a German hybrid of the German Shepherd and the Akita Inu.

The best way to determine the temperament of these dogs is to look up the different breeds in the dog’s history and determine the different characteristics from the different breeds.

TIPS for USED CAR BUYERS by JUN

Japanese Used Cars: Japan is the best place to buy a used car. Japan's cars are famous for their quality and reliability. Japanese drivers are cautious, and keep their cars in good condition and in top maintenance. The Japanese used cars put up for auction are therefore in an excellent state, and they are usually equipped with top quality accessories like air conditioning, power steering, power windows, airbags, and more. The cars in Japan also remain in good shape because Japanese roads are the best in the world. Hence, despite being in use for a long time, Japanese cars barely display any wear. The suspension is usually at 90% of its original condition, even after the car being driven for 6-7 years! Since repair costs are high in Japan, customers usually are forced to buy new cars, rather than repairing a broken down one. Hence, used cars have low mileage and are in good mechanical condition, which is what makes Japan a very attractive used car market.

Japanese Used Car Export: Japan exports new and used cars, and all the essential spare parts. The collaboration of the Japanese with the auto industry all over the world, has given Japan a distinct advantage in meeting their consumer's needs, at reasonable prices. All the used cars obtained at Japanese car auctions go through a severe assessment in accordance with strict Japanese policies. They maintain an state-of-the-art inventory with an inventory revenue rate presented every 2 weeks.

Besides, the Japanese car dealers are known for their exceptional after-sales service. Dealers in Japan guarantee to comply with any of their customer's future car parts needs, with 100% authentic replacements. They also supply used and recreateed parts at lower prices. Furthermore, Japanese used car companies take care to ensure all the customer's requirements are fulfilled on time, customs matters are dealt with efficiently.

Japanese Used Car Auction: Although American car manufacturers hold auctions, which offer cheaper cars than Japanese car manufacturers, Japanese cars are more popular because of their good condition. Japanese car auctions are conducted regularly. There are several types of Japanese used car auctions. Customers can participate in these auctions through the Internet, in the comfort of their homes. Shopping at an online auction is in fact very simple. All that customers have to do is set up an account, and then shop online following the directions on the website. Using the Internet offers customers in the USA access to car auctions all over the globe, including Japan. Moreover, they can get hold of various facts about the cars on sale, such as the kind of model available, the mileage etc., and the facility of making a bid online

Japanese Used Car Sales:

Japanese used cars have recorded the maximum sales online. People prefer Japanese cars over German technology and American glamour. Honda's 2001 Accord is a great family car. It offers a smooth and quiet ride, plush interiors, and seats that are comfortable, with a lot of legroom. The reputation for quality and reliability has made Japanese used cars the most sought after in the market.

Soccer in Japan

Soccer has become the second most popular professional spectator sport as well as the second most widely practiced sport among boys in primary schools. The Japan Football Association was established in 1921, and in 1948, the first national championship games were held. It became known as the Emperor's Cup, and by 1997, more than 3,000 teams participated in this tournament.

In 1987, the chairman of the Japan Soccer League (JSL), Mori Kenji, determined that soccer players should be allowed to register as professionals. Then in 1988, a committee made up of members of the JSL discussed ways to popularize soccer among the general public. The committee favored the establishment of a professional soccer league. In January of 1991, the Japan Football Association announced the basic structure of the Japan Professional Football League, or J. League for short. By July of the same year, ten teams were established. Finally, on September of 1992, the first official J. League tournament took place. In 1993, league competition was begun. New teams were added throughout the following years, with 26 participating teams today.


INTERNATIONAL
In recent years, Japan has emerged in the international soccer scene. In the 1998 World Cup, Japan's national soccer team represented Asia in the championship games in France after surviving the elimination rounds. After vigorous campaigning, Japan was chosen to co-host the World Cup in 2002.

JAPANESE FRUITS

A wide variety of fruits are available in Japan, many of which have been introduced from abroad and are recognizable to foreigners while others are native to Japan and not as well known outside of East Asia. The most common way to encounter fruits in Japan is as dessert at the end of a meal.

There is a stereotype that fruits in Japan are outrageously expensive. The stereotype is wrong in that regular fruits in regular supermarkets are generally reasonably priced like elsewhere in the world. Nonetheless, there is a relatively large market for luxury fruits, and many foreign visitors are surprised when they see premium melons in department stores that cost over 10,000 yen.

Below is a list of some of the most popular Japanese fruits:

Pome Fruits

Nashi (Japanese Pear) Although nashi are quite similar to Western pears, there are a number of significant differences. Compared to the Western pear, nashi are larger, crispier and have a similar but lighter taste and a rougher skin. Furthermore, they are spherical rather than "pear-shaped". Nashi are in season during the late summer and autumn and are generally eaten peeled. They have been cultivated by the Japanese since pre-historical times. Western pears are also available in the country, and are known as yonashi (Western pears).

Ringo (Apple) Widespread cultivation of apples in Japan began in the Meiji Period(1868-1912). Today it is one of the most popular fruits in Japan, and one of the few fruits that are exported overseas in large quantities. In Japan, apples are generally eaten raw after peeling. They are in season during autumn and early winter. Among the many apple varieties, the large, red and crispy fuji apple is most popular. Often believed to have been named after iconic Mount Fuji, the apple is actually named after the small town in Aomori Prefecture where it was cultivated in the 1930s. To this day Aomori is Japan's leading apple producing prefecture, and the city of Hirosaki, in particular, is closely associated with the fruit.

Kaki (Japanese Persimmon) While not technically part of the pome fruit category, kaki are similar to nashi and apples in their shape, size, crispiness and the way they are eaten. Kaki are most commonly enjoyed raw after being peeled and cut into pieces. But they are also dried and eaten, similar to figs. Kaki are in season in late autumn and winter when they are often seen hanging on otherwise barren trees. Originally coming from China, kaki have been cultivated in Japan since the 7th century.

Citrus Fruits

Mikan (Mandarin Orange) Mikan are the most popular type of Japanese oranges, which are generally known as kan (some other orange varieties are iyokan, ponkan, etc.). Mikan peel easily and do not have seeds and are widely popular as a dessert or snack when they are in season in early winter. Mikan were introduced to Japan from China about 400 years ago, from where they traveled to the West and became known as mandarin oranges. Japan is a major mikan producer, and the mikan is one of only few Japanese fruits to be exported in considerable quantities.Wakayama and Ehime Prefectures are Japan's top mikan producers.

Yuzu Yuzu are sour, lemon sized fruits that have a distinctively Japanese fragrance. While yuzu have little pulp, their juice is often used in seasoning and their rind is used as a garnish. Another interesting use of yuzu traditionally occurs on the winter solstice, when they are placed into hot baths for fragrance and various health benefits. Yuzu were introduced to Japan from China during the Asuka Period(538-710). Today they are mostly grown on the island of Shikoku, with half of the domestic production coming from Kochi Prefecture. Yuzu are in season during the winter.

Sudachi Sudachi are small and sour lemon-like fruits, similar to yuzu. However, sudachi are considerably smaller than yuzu, are green rather than yellow, and are pulpier. Sudachi are often squeezed over grilled fish. Sudachi have been part of Japanese cuisine since the country's early history. The fruit is closely associated with Tokushima Prefecture, where the majority of sudachi are produced. Sudachi are in season during the winter.

Kinkan (Kumquat) Kinkan are small orange-like fruits that are usually eaten whole without peeling. They have a pleasant sourness that is not as powerful as that of yuzu or sudachi and have a substantial amount of pulp as well as a few seeds. Kinkan are also used to make marmalade and a sweet type of liqueur. They are in season during the winter. Like the other citrus fruit listed above, kinkan originated in China. Domestic kinkan are produced mostly on the island of Kyushu, particularly in Miyazaki Prefecture.

Stone Fruits

Momo (Peach) Japanese peaches are generally larger, softer and more expensive than Western peaches, and their flesh is usually white rather than yellow. Peaches are commonly eaten raw after being peeled. Japanese peaches are in season during the summer. Peaches were introduced from China as early as the Yayoi Period (300 BC- 300 AD). Peach production in the prefectures of Yamanashi andFukushima make up the majority of the country's total output. The peach features prominently in the Japanese folklore tale of Momotaro (The Peach Boy), which is set in Okayama Prefecture.

Sakuranbo (Cherry) Most flowering Japanese cherry trees do not produce edible fruits. Instead, the edible cherry fruit was introduced to Japan from the West in the beginning of the Meiji Period (1868-1912). The satonishiki cherry was cultivated in Japan in the early 1900s and named after its cultivator Sato Esuke. Satonishiki are bright red and remain the most popular Japanese cherry today. Cherries are in season during mid-summer. The majority of domestic cherries are produced in Yamagata Prefecture, where the satonishiki cherry was cultivated and the fruit is celebrated as a local symbol. Darker colored "American Cherries" are also widely available in Japanese supermarkets.

Ume (Japanese Plum) Ume is usually translated as "plum", even though the fruit has botanically more in common with the apricot. Ume are rarely eaten raw, but are most commonly pickled into umeboshi (see photo to the left) and eaten with a bowl of white rice or inside rice balls (onigiri). Ume are also used to produce umeshu or "plum wine", a popular sweet liqueur. Ume is in season during the early summer, and lends its name to the rainy season (tsuyu or "plum rain" in Japanese). Contrary to the flowering cherry trees, the flowering plum trees of Japan also produce the edible ume fruits. Three months before the fruit is ripe, the blossoms of the plum trees open and are celebrated similar to thecherry blossoms. The culture of plum trees and blossoms originated in China, and was introduced to Japan in early times, while umeboshi were already being eaten by the Nara Period (710-784).

Berries

Ichigo (Strawberry) Strawberries in Japan are not fundamentally different from those in the West, but the large, sweet, attractive and ultimately expensive varieties are preferred. The berries are incorporated into Western style cakes and pastries, but they are also commonly enjoyed on their own. Strawberries are in season during late winter and early spring. Strawberries were introduced to Japan from the West in the mid 1800s, but cultivation did not begin until around 1900. Nowadays strawberries are grown throughout the country. Fruit picking has become a popular activity at many farms during the spring.

Budo (Grape) Japanese grapes are similar to Japanese strawberries, in that they do not differ much from their Western counterparts, and the large, sweet, attractive and ultimately expensive varieties are preferred. The main difference is that the skin of Japanese grapes are usually quite thick, and the grapes are therefore peeled before being eaten. One of the most popular Japanese varieties of grapes is the dark purple Kyoho grape, which is particularly large. Grapes are usually eaten on their own, but are also used for making wines. Grapes are in season during late summer and early autumn. Grapes were initially introduced to Japan from China around the Nara Period (710-784). A more recent wave of new varieties arrived from the West in the late 1800s. Sunny Yamanashi Prefecture is Japan's leading grape growing and wine producing region.

Melons

Melon Melons are the prototypical luxury fruit in Japan, and can be sold for over 10,000 yen per piece. Nonetheless, moderately priced melons are more common. A wide variety of melons is available in Japan, including green fleshed melons like muskmelons, orange fleshed melons like cantaloupes and even white and yellow fleshed varieties. Melons are usually cut open and the flesh of the fruit is enjoyed raw at the end of a meal. Melons are available to purchase as a whole fruit or in slices, and are in season during the late spring and summer After their introduction to Japan, melons were grown in greenhouses during the Taisho Period (1912-1926). Melons are often associated withHokkaido, particularly the town of Yubari, whose eponymous Yubari melons are among the most highly valued in the country.

Suika (Watermelon) Watermelons are the representative fruit of summer. Like their Western counterparts, they are large in size with a hard rind and a sweet, crunchy, juicy flesh. The first seedless watermelons were created in Japan in the 1930s, and nowadays there are also small numbers of square shaped and other highly priced premium exemplars. Watermelons were introduced to Japan from China in the beginning of the Edo Period (1603-1867). There is a traditional summertime game called suika-wari (watermelon splitting), where a watermelon is placed on the ground and participants take turns being spun around and trying to split it open with a stick. The game is often played on the beach.

Others

Kiwi Kiwi in Japan differ very little from the kiwi sold elsewhere in the world. The fruit is made up of an exterior thin, hairy, brown skin with a juicy, green, tart flesh inside. Kiwi are usually eaten raw with the skin removed. Domestic kiwi are in season during the late winter and early spring, but imported kiwi are available all year round. Although the kiwi fruit originated in China, it was never widely cultivated there, and it was not until the 20th century that the fruit was brought to New Zealand and grown there in large numbers. In the 1960s, kiwi were introduced to Japan and they have since become quite popular. Although a fair number of kiwi are now grown domestically, the majority of the fruits are imported from New Zealand.

Ichijiku (Fig) Figs in Japan are usually peeled and eaten raw, but they are also popular in their dried form or are processed into jams. Figs are in season during late summer and early fall. Figs made their way to Japan from the Mediterranean in the early 1600s via China, when the fruit was also known as "foreigner's kaki". The vast majority of figs in Japan are of the Masui Dauphine variety, which is a relatively large type of fig and is named after Mr. Masui who cultivated the fruit in the early 1900s.
