Day 4 of Hotsui Matsuri: Highlighting More Traditional Instruments
I'm back at it, highlighting five more traditional Japanese instruments!
#HotsuiMatsuri
It’s Hotsui Matsuri day four and Star and I have officially (hopefully) survived the heatwave in our city! Days of over 105 degrees really made me miss our normally tame summers, but hey–that’s global warming for you. If ever there was a reason for you to start caring about the environment, it should be that our planet is literally burning. ANYWAY, today on Hotsui Matsuri, I’m going to be…
another reason I like bloodline: giving me indirect jinpachi & heihachi lore. cause this father & son duo is pretty overlooked and its just interesting to think about
I think this is the first and only time heihachi mentionned his father and the whole thing fascinates me. If you didnt know, jinpachi mishima is the founder of the mishima zaibatsu that heihachi overthrowed before locking him up in chains under their family ancestral home where jinpachi eventually died. (just goes to show the devil gene isnt the origin of the mishima's fucked up family drama)
again an interesting thing about jinpachi is that hes so far the most noble mishima (not that the bar is high...) like hes the only one who was genuinely kind to kazuya when he was a child, he also had a touching friendship with wang jinrei... but hes made his fortune by selling weapons during ww2, something he apparently regretted enough to dedicate his family legacy to world peace and martial arts.
So I imagine the lesson jinpachi tried to teach heihachi here would depend on whether he told it to a very young heihachi who internalized it and which fueled his ambition OR he told it to heihachi after ww2 which would mean heihachi was already adult and he meant it as some sort of cautionnary tale but heihachi choose to interpret it the wrong way. In any ways, stuff to think about.
and finally, maybe its all just good old manipulative heihachi at work (he is trying to get something out of jin for his own gain after all), but the way hes talking about his father here is so interesting to me because in game canon when jinpachi and heihachi are able to interact, its always is a LITERAL headbutting way, but here it opens a window into the probability of why heihachi is the way he is, and how no matter of how well intentionated jinpachi mightve been, he also played a part in shaping heihachi's evil.
For his Japan tour, Krist wanted to incorporate elements of both countries into the concert. He incorporated Japanese taiko drums to give the concert a Japanese flavor, and Thai traditional dances to give it a Thai flavor. The performance was something that could only be seen at a concert in Japan, and it showed Krist's determination to show his fans something special.
Hotsui Matsuri Day 5 - More Traditional Japanese Instruments
It's the final day of Hotsui Matsuri! And we're talking about more traditional Japanese Instruments!
#hotsuimatsuri #aniblogger
How are we already at day five? Hotsui Matsuri is coming to a close today and we’ve already been there and back again to our local Obon Festival to do some Bon Odori. So today, at the end of the day, I’m here to sit down and talk about some more traditional Japanese Instruments; because if there’s one thing we can all join together with and understand–it’s music.

I think The Beach by The Neighborhood would fit your new overhaul fic alot!
Anooooooooon literally a month late to this because I've hardly been on Tumblr and this got buried on my phone notifs, but THANK YOU! I actually totally see how this fits the Overhaul fic! I've actually been feeling tempted to pick it back up and dabble in it a little tonight, and I'll listen to this while I do it!
vibing to obscure video game soundtrack through my headphones dancing very autistically in the kitchen alone at a quarter to 1am lights off everyone else asleep
I kinda hate the weapon I gave my mew mew oc. I gave her maracas that shoot beams out of them, but I feel it’s lame and doesn’t fit her character that well. Dose anyone have any advice on how they made their weapons?
