“Let me tell you something.”
“Hm?”
“If anyone were ever to write a biography about you, it’d be called The Life of a Dumbass. And situations like this are the exact reason why!”
“I don’t know what you’re going on about but that’s kinda hyper credible coming from the woman who made salt cookies instead of SUGAR COOKIES!”
“Well that’s only because you decided it was a good idea to refill the wrong canisters with said salt and sugar!” Kai reminded him, growing more and more agitated with the thought of her missing out on food. “Wait, hyper credible??”
Previously feeling accomplished for getting dinner ready in time to surprise his honey bear, Masanori’s ego slightly diminished as he reassessed the stove to see what was wrong with what he had done. Upon further inspection, he guess he could have done something a little different..
“Masanori- When I said to put the spaghetti on the stove, I didn’t mean to JUST THROW THE UNCOOOKED SPAGHETTI PASTA ON THE STOVETOP AND NOT COOK IT!!”
“Okay, so I’m a dumbass if I do, dumbass if I don’t! I did LITERALLY WHAT YOU ASKED FOR, WOMAN!”
“If it’s not spaghetti on the stove, it’s the dishwasher filled with soap,” Kai began, getting more and more worked up as she started recall every failed attempt of Masanori ‘holding down the kitchen’ when he was on dinner duty, her growling stomach seemingly running on fumes from the lack of food filling it.
“Kai bear,”
“Or using the entire oven as, well, AN OVEN and throwing all of the vegetables in without a pan,”
“Kai beeear,”
“AND THEN FLIPPING THE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE- “
“Kai bear honey, that was actually you, that uh, did that one,”
“Oh..yeah..” Kai lost her train of thought as she recalled the rings of pineapples that seemed to taunt her, along with Mitsunari who always had a less than helpful comment to make when it came to her cooking. Her angry stomach reminded her that she was in the middle of tirade as it roared once more in protest.
“And if not THAT, then it’s cutting up literal cleaning sponges to put into the sponge cake for Lady Nene’s birthday cake-
“KAI BEAR!”
“WHAT. DO YOU WANT.”
“Do you wanna grab some pizza? You get kinda ang…”
Kai’s glare shot his sentence down midway, forcing him to reconsider his words.
“Okay! I’m feeling like pizza, you’re paying right?” Kai chirped as she twirled away in a dash, eager to finally quell the hunger pangs afflicting her.
Masanori could only look on in a daze – half amazed at how quick food could solve a hungry bear’s mood but also amazed at how he landed his one-of-a-kind honey bear.
“Masanori, are you coming!? I can’t leave without your wallet!!”
“Yeah yeah, I hear ya I’m comin’. Ya know, it would be cheaper to make our own, like, just throw some cheese on the spaghetti and-“
So I was looking around for info on Fukushima's original master, Fukushima Masanori, and in "The Battle of Sekigahara: The Greatest, Bloodiest, Most Decisive Samurai Battle Ever" by Chris Glenn, there's this interesting line: "Masanori had [before the battle] muttered something about wanting to eat [Ishida] Mitsunari's flesh, 'Mitsunari no niku o tabetai'; the phrase was used with such regularity that it became a slogan Fukushima would often use to express his desire to bring about Mitsunari's demise."
With the caveat that I'm having trouble finding another source for this phrase (and it's likely not meant to be taken literally)...maybe Fukushima would be more accepting of HFL Citadel's secret than expected after all?
Yeah, I poked around a bit on both the eng and jp sides of the internet to find a more reputable source but I've only been able to find a handful of casual jp blogs and one eng facebook post talking about it.
From the fb post: " At a meeting held to determine tactics some weeks earlier, the alcoholic Fukushima had repeatedly mentioned wanting to "Eat the flesh of Mitsunari", eliciting cheers and exciting the other daimyo, and pleasing Ieyasu enough to offer the Fukushima forces the first taste of blood."
If it’s something he said a lot, I figured that it would be easy to find in jp but I didn’t come across anything from a legit source. But I also found it odd that the eng samurai site threw in that line in very textbook japanese because it would sound really weird coming from a drunk warlord lol
Even in the jp blogs, there are small differences in the words they use for the quote, but the meaning is the same. So it makes me lean towards it being a legend and not an actual quote if people can't decide on the exact words he used
Still, it's an interesting story tied to masanori and since toudans take form from legends, it's still fair game in my eyes. Thanks for pointing this out to me!

🇯🇵 Japon: Masanori Fukushima, professeur émérite à l'université de Kyoto dit ses 4 vérités au Ministère de la Santé
"La moitié des décès suite à la vaccination sont dus à des lésions cardiovasculaires et cardiaques"
"Vous ignorez la science, la médecine et laissez les soins s'effondrer! C'est un désastre..."
"Vous dépensez des milliards pour le vaccin et forcez les gens à se l'injecter"
"(Vos scientifiques) ne sont pas des scientifiques, mais des fossoyeurs de la science qui s'arrangent avec la vérité, avec un mépris total pour la science et la médecine!"
During battle, samurai would collect the heads of their opponents. Once taken, the heads would be returned to the base camp for registration. The name of the victor, his weapon used, any other circumstances regarding the duel and the name of the head was recorded on a piece of stiff paper, and tied to the hair queue.
The head was then cleaned, prepared and perfumed for display, a task completed by specially trained women. If a samurai found himself too "busy" to take the head off for registration, or his assistants had already left the field with other heads, cutting off the upper lip and nose together was also acceptable. Then, after the battle had ended, and after reuniting the pieces like a macabre jigsaw puzzle, the head could be properly cut off or reclaimed. For reasons unknown, any heads missing the lip and nose were known as onnakubi, or "woman’s heads."
Following the battle, the heads would be inspected by the commander in chief of the victoroius forces in a solemn ceremony known as the Kubi-jikken. The way the heads were displayed, and the preparations for the viewing ceremony were quite detailed. It was believed that heads could fly, and so a contingent of weapons ready bodyguards surrounded the lord during the ceremony.
Some heads were not presented to the lord. The reasons being, the facial expressions were often interpreted as being lucky or unlucky kills depending on such things as the direction the eyes are looking, whether the head is biting its lip, which eye is open, etc. Heads deemed to be showing in-auspicios expressions were taken away and attended to by Buddhist priests instead.
After the ceremony, the heads of the samurai killed in battle from both sides, vanquished and victor, were buried in large pits known as kubi-zuka, or head mounds. Most battlefields have a head mound in the vicinity.
Incidentally, the record number of heads taken by a single man in combat at the Battle of Sekigahara was Kani Saizo, a samurai serving under Fukushima Masanori, who took a claimed 22 heads, but having left the bulk of his taken heads on the battlefield, could only prove 17 kills, still winning the stakes for the most heads taken.
This footage was recorded at a study meeting on mRNA vaccine damage organized by a volunteer group of Japanese Diet members.
Professor Emeritus Masanori Fukushima of Kyoto University directly and vehemently protests to the Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare (MHLW) officials in charge of vaccines about their active promotion of mRNA vaccination in complete disregard of the originally set procedures of the pharmaceutical affairs administration.
The families of the victims who died from this vaccine were also present at this venue. Some courageous doctors in Japan, as in other countries, have been protesting the dangers of this vaccine for quite some time, but the Japanese government has deliberately ignored them.
