HINOMARU - MILITARY MARCHES OF JAPAN
Hinomaru
Hinomaru is the name of the Japanese flag. This flag is officially called Nisshōki (日章旗), but is more commonly known in Japan as Hinomaru (日の丸) the circle of the sun. It embodies the country's sobriquet: Land of the Rising Sun.
Although before 1999 no earlier legislation had specified a national flag, the sun-disc flag had already become the de facto national flag of Japan. Two proclamations issued in 1870 by the Daijō-kan, the governmental body of the early Meiji period, each had a provision for a design of the national flag. A sun-disc flag was adopted as the national flag for merchant ships under Proclamation No. 57 of Meiji 3 (issued on February 27, 1870), and as the national flag used by the Navy under Proclamation No. 651 of Meiji 3 (issued on October 27, 1870).
Using the Hinomaru was severely restricted during the early years of the Allied occupation of Japan after World War II; these restrictions were later relaxed.

Sumo: Asashoryu vs Hakuho - Yokozuna (Sumo Champion) Match
This is a little blast from the past - I was going thru some of my old archive footage and came across footage of an outdoor sumo exhibit from 2009 at Yasukuni Shrine that they do every April. I've gone to it a few times but only once got to see the two Yokozuna at that time face off against each other.
Usually you can only see Yokozuna fight each other on the last day of the tournament, a day which it is quite difficult to get tickets for so this was quite a treat. Yokozuna is a difficult position to reach and only a few ever reach it. There has been up to four Yokozuna at one time and there has been times when there has been none.
Asashoryu was Yokozuna from 2003-2010 and Hakuho has been one since 2007 so for only a short period of time could you see two Yokozuna compete since 2003.
For the recent outdoor yokozuna match between Hakuho and Harumafuji - check here:

English:
In a white sea, a red sun burns
Round planets float up like solitary islands
And still, the war
is not yet over....
Slender buildings crowd the cities
Matched with the blade of a long history
Only one can prevail
The combat continues...
I love everything new
I really really like what's fashionable
The minority can't control me
Excuse me, I am sorry
I will not say no to righteously passing down my traditions,
that is to my absolute knowledge.
Etiquette, restraint
The virtues of shame
Cherry trees, maple trees
The meaning of the seasons
My straight black hair
will be blond by tomorrow
After celebrating Christmas
The year ends and I go to the temple
This is how it usually is
Excuse me, I am sorry
Come in, come in to the bath.
Get out, get out when time's up.
Come in, come in to the bath.
Get out, get out when time's up.
I love kotatsu (heated tables) and mandarin oranges
I really really like Western cooking
I can't deny the Meiji Era
Excuse me, I am sorry
I love everything new
I really really like what's fashionable
The minority can't control me
Excuse me, I am sorry

Meiji-mura (博物館明治村 Hakubutsukan Meiji-mura, Meiji Village Museum) is an open-air architectural museum/theme park in Inuyama, near Nagoya in Aichi prefecture, Japan.
The museum preserves historic buildings from Japan's Meiji (1867–1912), Taisho (1912–1926), and early Shōwa (1926–1989) periods.
The most noteworthy building there is the reconstructed main entrance and lobby of Frank Lloyd Wright's landmark Imperial Hotel, which originally stood in Tokyo from 1923 to 1967, when the main structure was demolished to make way for a new, larger version of the hotel.

Koiwa Umibe De 恋は海辺で late 1920s song by Mitsuko Watanabe
Victor Company of Japan recording No. 52351-B. English translation of song title: Love at the Beach.
As described in Wikipedia, Ryūkōka (流行歌) is a Japanese word that means popular song. As Japan underwent a rapid modernization program during the early decades of the twentieth century, the popular music enjoyed by its citizens reflected that transformation as well. By the start of the Great Depression, Japanese pop music had begun to merge elements of classical and Western music with Japanese folk melodies and indigenous musical instruments such as the shamisen, koto, and shakuhachi.
The fact that several Japanese characters displayed on the Victor record label are no longer in use lends speculation that this song by Mitsuko Watanabe （みつこわたなべ）was recorded sometime between 1926 and 1929, at the end of the Taishō or start of the Shōwa era. The musical accompaniment heard on this track also seemed to differ from the typical ryūkōka songs of the 1930s. Even so, the number assigned to this Victor Japan recording offers evidence that the disc was actually produced and sold to the public in 1932.
