Hello, RPV.

How is everyone doing in this continuing heat wave?

We are also working hard in the hot weather.

So, while I was busy with work, my friend and I went fishing in Amakusa.

Even though it was night fishing, it was quite hot and humid. As I was leaning on the fishing line, I saw fireworks going off in the distance.

Watching fireworks while fishing was quite enjoyable.

We were told that they have not been catching much fish recently since the earthquake, so we decided to go for the bean horse mackerel without any expectations.

I guess with my skill level, it would be reasonable to target small horse mackerels at best! However, miracles do happen.

What a hit! Oh, lucky me!

After that, my friend got a flounder by swimming bait-fishing with the horse mackerel I had caught!

My friend got another flounder last week, so he generously gave his catch to me this time. Thank you very much.

Well, I guess you can't know what you're dealing with until you try!

I hope you all take good care of yourselves and have a good summer vacation!

 

The exhibition is being held at the Prefectural Museum of Art, Kumamoto Branch from July 27, 2012.
Evangelion and Japanese Sword ExhibitionI went to the

The usually plain pavilion is also dressed up with anime characters.

Kumamon, the collaborating character, for the first Saturday after the event.
They greet you in cosplay. They are very popular among men and women of all ages.

I ordered a time-consuming nameplate before looking around the exhibits.
The demonstration was given by Kaoru Sakamoto (Kumamoto) and Naoma Nishimura (Saga).

After the inscription cutting reception is over, we will start from the 1st floor, where you can learn the history of Japanese swords.

Dotanuki is exhibited first because it is held in Kumamoto.

There are seven pieces ranging from the Heian period to the end of the Edo period, and I personally like the blade pattern of the Azuchi-Momoyama period.

There are many different types of Japanese swords.

Many Eva character-inspired works are on display on the first and second floors.

And this time it is the Lance of Longinus that is being pushed.
It may not look like much at first glance, but the details and drawings show that a great deal of time and effort went into this product.

After looking around, I went shopping at Eva Store. Here are some of the loot.

I think it is difficult to own one personally because of the Firearms Act, but how about one for everyone?

I believe that dangerous objects, including Japanese swords, possess a beauty that attracts people.

The period is until August 20. See you soon.
