-About the design
The Tale of the Heike: Vol. 1 Tenjounoyamiuchi: “I have made preparations for a long time. From the beginning of his visit, he prepared a large scabbard, which he placed under his sash, and then, facing the darkness of the fire, he pulled out his sword, which seemed to be like ice from the distance. The people looked on in disbelief.

-Episodes in the making of this piece (MORINORI)
What would Tadamori-sama do?
Tenjounoyamiuchi is the next story following the first volume of the Tale of the Heike, the last of the Gion Shoja. The part I designed this time is the most common section in Heikyoku, which is told in kudokoro. This is the scene where Tadamori-sama places a sword (a wooden sword with silver leaf applied to it in imitation of a sword) in his hair near his ear on the night of the Sechie. If I actually saw this scene, I would also clear my eyes. Tadamori-sama is harassed by the court nobles who envy his ascension to the throne, but he manages to overcome the harassment with his retainer Iesada. Iesada’s words are spoken in the form of ko no koe, a phrase used in the heroic shouts, and this part is also very passionate. I hope to design Iesada-sama at some point in the future.

When such an event comes up, I think of Tadamori-sama and wonder how I will get through this scene. What would Tadamori-sama do? What would Tadamori-sama do? I encounter situations where there are no answers, where the right answer is turned upside down, and where I face various difficulties, but “What would I do if I were Tadamori-sama? inspires me.
