SPIRIT's Diary

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...

I'm searching to use Image Generator, AI image generating system, more effectively. This system is for general, not mature. But if I use it, it's effective for me to use illustrations of Hakkenshi-Series. I generated a illustration as "Fuyuzora Kogarashi as Inuta Kobungo and Kay as Inuta Kobungo."

We can illustrate a far cheaper and a far easily. By apperarence of AI, I think the world of illustrators will be changed.

I found an interesting video in Youtube, about Nansou Satomi Hakkenden/Eight Dogs Chlonicle. It introduces Hakkenden and Hakkenshi successfully, compared to Sailor Moon, Morning Musume and so on. Fifth, I decided to introduce Inuta Kobungo. ・Inuta Kobungo's character He has an orb engraved with the character "悌(Tei/Brotherfood)." He has a peony-shaped birthmark on his buttocks near his crotch (his right thigh in the TBS drama version). He is the uncle of Inue Shinbei, Hakkenshi of "仁(Jin/Sympathy)." He was born into the family of Konaya, an inn in Gyotoku. He originally had no last name, but after killing Inuta, the evil people, so, he had been called "Kobungo the Inuta Killer" and after "Inuta Kobungo." He was a foster brother of Inukai Genpachi. After the Battle of Horyukaku, he took care of the injured Genpachi and Inuzuka Shino. And after, he learned that he was Hakkenshi, but later lost his little sister and her husband who tried to prot...
