Nansou Satomi Hakkenden: Is Inusaka Keno a Little Gay?

Image
Since Edo Period, Inusaka Keno, the warriors of "智(Chi/wisdom)" has been very popular. Because “He is a beauty man like female, and he's no discomfort even if he becomes cross-dressing.” “He is extremely cruel despite of beauty people, and even kill women and children of enemy family without hesitating.” But he has a bit human touch. It's that he is a little gay. In original work, there is "Asakeno's woo to Kobungo". Asakeno is Keno's fake name as the female dengaku performer, and he flirted with Inuta Kobungo, the warrior of "悌(Tei/brotherhood)", with condition that Keno will release Kobungo from the prison. He even said and offered his head to Kobungo, "I want to be killed by you if this love won't become true." By unknown reasons, Kobungo responded it. However, in ancient Japan, "Shudou(日本語:衆道)/male homosexuality" like this was not rare. For example, Yajirobee(Yaji-san) and Kitahachi(Kita-san), the heroes of Tokai...

Hakkenshi/The Eight Dog Warriors of “Harem Protagonists”!? or “Garupan Captain Group”!? -Extra Edition: “Inukawa Sosuke” of Manaka Junpei and Nishizumi Maho-3

Image
Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. In this time, it's "As Inukawa Sosuke, Manaka Junpei and Nishizumi Maho are showing the orb of ''Gi(義)/justice". Junpei and Maho: We’re Inukawa Sosuke Yoshito. We have the orb of “Gi(義)/justice.” Now I think about it more, both Junpei and Maho are "the legend". Junpei is "the legend" of harem protagonists (perhaps also as the protagonist of Jump Comics) Maho is "the legend" of Senshado. However, why have I casted them as the plainest part of Hakkenshi/The Eight Dog Warriors? Even me, I don't understand. In next times, I requested Mihoniumu--san illustration, of pairs of Inuyama Dosetsu(Ichijou Raku and Nishi Kinuyo). How will be the quality? Casting of  "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi"  and  "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi"  is below. Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi 仁(Jin)/benevolent: Inue Shinbei: Kasugano Haruka(Yosuga No...

I’ve Continued to Try and Error My Video Compilation-134 : The Duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Harem Protagonists, from Nansou Satomi Hakkenden-2

Image
By Image Generator (former PixAI) V3.2 and Domo AI, I generated an animation, that The Duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Harem Protagonists from Nansou Satomi Hakkenden again.     Itou Makoto as Inuzuka Shino and Momonari Junta as Inukai Genpachi are battling on the roof. I've been surprised that we can add voice and sound into animations in Image Generator. I wanted to hear Namba Keiichi and Hirakawa Daisuke's voice from this animation. Even if I've understood it's impossible. Casting of  "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi"  and  "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi"  is below. Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi 仁(Jin)/benevolent: Inue Shinbei: Kasugano Haruka(Yosuga No Sora): (CV: Shimono Hiro) 義(Gi/justice): Inukawa Sosuke: Manaka Junpei(Ichigo 100%): (CV: Suzumura Kenichi) 礼(Rei/courtesy): Inumura Daikaku: Yuiga Nariyuki(We Never Learn): (CV: Oosaka Ryota) 智(Chi/wisdom): Inusaka Keno: Yuuki Rito(To Love Ru): (CV: Watanabe Akino) 忠(Chuu/loya...

I’ve Continued to Try and Error My Video Compilation-133: The Duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Garupan Captain Group, from Nansou Satomi Hakkenden-2

Image
Since long time, I've not used Image Generator (the former PixAI). So, until now, I've not known, that we can add sound and voice into animations made by Image Generator and V3.2. I think it's derived from Sora 2, but I'm very surprised! By Image Generator V 3.2, I generated an animation from "The Duel of Horyukaku(日本語:芳流閣)/Horyu Tower by Garupan Captain Group" , based on Nanso Satomi Hakkenden again. I've been very surprised for voice and sound added suitable to the illustration. But, as I think, it's difficult to actual Yoshioka Maya and Fuchigami Mai's voice, isn't it? Of course, I'll generate an animation "The Duel of Horyukaku/Horyu Tower by Harem Protagonists" . But it seems that it needs much time.

I Think It's Made Very Well as Taking Breaks -Impression of Girls Und Panzer Motto Love Love Tactics 1st Chapter-

Image
“She ran across the battlefield in her white form, cutting even the strongest enemy with a single blow.  She was respected by her allies as a spiritual pillar, and feared by her enemies, who called her the "White Devil."” Honestly, I want Nishizumi Miho to be called as so, particularly "Nishizumi Miho as Inuzuka Shino". Preface is long, but I'll introduce the impression of Girls Und Panzer Motto Love Love Tactics 1st Chapter. Honestly, it's made very well as taking breaks. Particularly, the story that Miho and Itsumi Erika become lost children was very heartful. The figure that Miho and Erika is taking their hands was very cute! This movie was made the story chosen from the best story in original works. I thought we didn't need three times opening and ending, but Anchovy who was pushed around by Anzio students was very cute! Anchovy's funny faces who meet BC Freedom Highschool's student is also very good. In Motto Love Love Tactics, Anchovy is th...

Nanso Satomi Hakkenden: Is Inuzuka Shino Talented or Goofy?

Image
In original work and so on, Inuzuka Shino, the first hero of Hakkenden, is portrayed, as the master of learning and martial, serious, dignified and talented man. But some fanfiction emphasizes his dumb. In OVA "The Hakkenden" and Ms. Aomata Pinku's comics "Hakkenden", Inuzuka Shino is portrayed as very dazed man. Ms. Aomata said, "Among Hakkenshi, only Shino is likely to stomp the dog's poo when they're walking the street." (By the way, I think it's also suitable to both Itou Makoto and Nishizumi Miho.) And The book,"Bakusho Hakkenden(日本語:爆笑八犬伝)/Laughing Hakkenden" said "Inuzuka Shino's cross-dressing is goofy rather than filial. In original work, Shino became the master of learning and martial and the one man army when he was a child, but he's somewhere goofy. For example, ・He had rided his dog instead of the horse ・He hadn't noticed he hadn't been suitable his cross-dressing. ・For 3 weeks, he hadn't take...

Hakkenshi/The Eight Dog Warriors of “Harem Protagonists”!? or “Garupan Captain Group”!? -Extra Edition: “Inuzuka Shino” of Itou Makoto and Nishizumi Miho-3

Again, I requested Mihoniumu-san(@gupmihoniumu, key(gaigaigai123)) an illustration. In this time, it's "As Inuzuka Shino, Itou Makoto and Nishizumi Miho are showing the orb of ''Kou(孝)/filial piety". Makoto and Miho: We're Inuzuka Shino Moritaka. we have the orb of "Kou(孝)/filial piety".- Please don't point out why Hakkenshi are in pairs. They're Hakkenshi of beautiful boys and girls. In next time, I'll request Inukawa Sosuke pairs (Manaka Junpei and Nishizumi Maho). How will be the quality? Casting of  "Harem Protagonists as Hakkenshi"  and  "Garupan Captain Group as Hakkenshi"  is below.

Is Nanso Satomi Hakkenden Super Sentai/Power Rangers in Japanese Edo Period?

Image
Some says,  "Nanso Satomi Hakkenden is Super Sentai/Power Rangers in Japanese Edo Period." According to my theory, they're similar but different. They are both moralistic tales. However, Super Sentai/Power Rangers feature their teamwork most. But inversely, they're not invincible if they're not unite completely. In contrast, Hakkenshi/Eight Dog Warriors, 8 heroes in Nanso Satomi Hakkenden, are one man army even if they're alone. I questioned Chat GPT whether Hakkenden and Super Sentai/Power Rangers is similar or not. It introduced both similar points and different points. Similar points ・Ensemble “team” structure: Hakkenden is fundamentally about assembling a destined group of heroes; Sentai is also team-centric. ・Clear “signature identities”: Sentai uses colors/suits/roles; Hakkenden uses names/marks/beads/virtues to distinguish and bind the heroes. ・Quest / gathering arc: the “find the others / unite the party” dynamic will feel familiar if you like team-for...
