In the 13th century, a Japanese priest returned from a trip to China and settled in the small, coastal town of Yuasa in Japan’s Wakayama Prefecture. He brought with him several new skills that he had learned from the Chinese, including a process for making miso (a soybean paste). The liquid byproduct of this miso-making process was eventually adopted by the people of Yuasa as a condiment of its own—giving birth to what we know today as soy sauce.

Five Generations of Making Soy Sauce the Traditional Way
Japanese shoyu, or soy sauce, was traditionally brewed in vats over two years in a process that dates back to the 7th century. Over the past 60 years, global demand gave way to industrialization, and today less than one percent of shoyu is produced in the old way. But on the island of Shōdoshima, Yasuo Yamamoto ferments soy beans traditionally in bamboo barrels similar to the ones his family has built for the past 150 years. And while it takes four times longer than the modern way to produce, the results are undeniably delicious. Let's have a taste.

Riben Guizi (Japanese Devils)
A documentary recording the testimony of fourteen former Japanese soldiers as they recount atrocities and war crimes committed during the Second World War, including the infamous Unit 731 medical experimentation group. Having been trained by their country to be nothing but killers, the soldiers claim to have become morally numb and unable to see non-Japanese as even human. Perhaps feeling some remorse for what they have done, they now choose to tell their stories for the world to hear.
Please keep the discussion civil.

The Anime That'll Blow You Away In 2020
The new year is bringing new anime that fans across the world will love. Are you ready for a series about historical warlords in the bodies of modern pet dogs? How about the story of a girl who realizes she's the villain in a video game? All this and more are in store for 2020.
Junji Ito is horror manga's undisputed king. If anything from his vast library of work can be considered his magnum opus, however, it is Uzumaki: the slow, sordid chronicle of one small town's descent into madness.
The story encompasses everything from cannibalistic body horror to isolation-induced psychosis. Ito's always had a gift for balancing absurdism with horror, but Uzumaki takes it further than ever before.
Uzumaki has been adapted before, most notably as a series of video games and a 2000 live-action movie. Nothing, however, has managed to equal its source material in sheer intensity, until now.
In partnership with Adult Swim, Production I.G. has produced a four-episode adaptation that will air concurrently in Japan and the United States. Ito's densely-inked style is a massive challenge to animate, but teaser trailers reveal uniquely detailed visuals that should intrigue newbies and seasoned fans alike. Just make sure you watch this one with the lights on.
It might have taken five years longer than expected, but at last, the finale of the Rebuild of Evangelion series has a premiere date. These films have always been unique: Though they're most widely known as a retelling of the original Neon Genesis Evangelion anime series, they've grown steadily different from the source material with each installment. Entirely new characters have taken center stage, old characters have been woven into the narrative far earlier than in the original series, and a completely different ending is promised to close out the series.
If the previous films are anything to go by, 3.0+1.0 will be an innovative presentation of everything that makes Evangelion the anime touchstone it is, from dazzling animation to a clear-eyed look at trauma on the precipice of adulthood. Keep watching the video to see all the anime that'll blow you away in 2020!

“The Fire of Rice Sheaves”
Town of Hirogawa, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan
“The Fire of Rice Sheaves” is a real story about a hero (Goryo Hamaguchi) who saved the lives of villagers by setting his precious rice sheaves on fire to show people the way to escape from the tsunami that followed the Ansei Nankai Earthquake, which struck the village on November 5, 1854.
Goryo also helped the village recover, using his own money to finance the construction of a huge earth levee with the idea of protecting the community from tsunamis for the next hundred generations.
The story of “The Fire of Rice Sheaves” has been introduced in textbooks in Japanese schools. It has also been recognized around the world and became the origin of “World Tsunami Awareness Day.”
The Town of Hirogawa in Wakayama Prefecture has been working to protect the levee and introducing Goryo Hamaguchi’s achievements and his message to the world to prepare for tsunami disasters.
The town recently opened the “Inamura-no-Hi no Yakata,” the Hamaguchi Goryo Archives and Tsunami Educational Center, using state-of-the-art displays on tsunami preparedness and has started “The Fire of Rice Sheaves Festival,” in addition to its annual Tsunami Festival.
The Town of Hirogawa has been welcoming a great number of the guests from around the world.

The State of Japanese Animation in a Post-Miyazaki World: Directors to Watch
The State of Japanese Animation in a Post-Miyazaki World: Directors to Watch
When legendary director Hayao Miyazaki announced his retirement from Studio Ghibli recently, the world of Japanese anime was in mourning. In the vacuum left by the famed director, known for masterpieces like Spirited Away and My Neighbor Totoro, an opportunity has emerged for new talent to take center stage.
Japan Society sat down with scriptwriter Dai Sato and animator/producer Justin Leach to discuss some of the directors to be on the lookout for in the coming years to fill the void left by Miyazaki's retirement.
The list includes:
Masaaki Yuasa (Mind Game, Ping Pong, Adventure Time)
Mamoru Hosoda (Summer Wars, The Boy and the Beast)
Makoto Shinkai (5 Centimeters Per Second, Garden of Words)
Hideaki Anno (Neon Genesis Evangelion)
Dice Tsutsumi & Robert Kondo (The Dam Keeper, Moom)
Sjingo Natsume (Space Dandy, One-Punch Man)
Hiroyasu Ishida (Poulette's Chair, Rain Town)
Daizen Komatsuda (Bubuki/Buranki)
So check out their past and future works!
Dai Sato has written scripts for highly acclaimed television series and films including Samurai Champloo, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, and Cowboy Bebop. Justin Leach has also worked many years in the animation industry, including as a CG creator on Innocence: Ghost in the Shell 2 and on the animation sequences in Kill Bill. Dai and Justin are both members of Japan Society’s Innovators Network.

Japan Travel: Relaxing and Learning at the Onsen Shiryokan, Shirahama, Wakayama 20
Japan Travel: Relaxing and Learning at the Onsen Shiryokan, Shirahama, Wakayama 20
Shirahama, located in Wakayama Prefecture, is a traditional hot spring (onsen) town with a long history. In the past, emperors such as Saimei, Tenji, Jito and Monmu have visited Shirahama onsen (hot spring). And with its close proximity to Osaka, Shirahama Onsen (hot spring) resort is one of the 3 biggest onsen resorts in Japan. Its rivals are Beppu in Kyushu and Atami along the Izu Peninsula.
With the onsen industry being an important part of the town’s history and commerce, it is no wonder visitors can find an Onsen Shiryokan (museum) here. The museum focuses on Japanese hot springs, with displays to explain the science and history of the onsen. The museum is housed in a modern, wooden building with numerous educational exhibits. Unfortunately, the explanations are limited to Japanese only, making it difficult for non-Japanese speakers to understand the displays.

YAKINIKU DRAGON 야키니쿠 드래곤

=========================
[SYNOPSIS]
Yakiniku Dragon is a story about a Korean family running a grilled tripe restaurant at a village near Kansai airport in Japan when Expo '70 was held. The story is based on an original play written by Chong Wishing, a Korean director and script writer living in Japan. Yakiniku Dragon, a play made in collaboratin between the Seoul Arts Center and the New National Theatre Tokyo, has been performed in Korea and Japan receiving multiple awards since 2008. Yakiniku Dragon conveys vigorous life of Zainichi villagers sharing common trauma as they argue, reconcile, love and break up. Through the impressive story of characters intensively affecting each other, individual yet conventional sense of life is expressed on screen. Harmony between Korean actors Kim Sangho and Lee Jeong-eun and Japanese actors Maki Yoko and Inoue Mao is wonderful.
제주 출신인 용길은 일본에 의해 전쟁터로 끌려가 한쪽 팔을 잃고, 전쟁이 끝나고 고향에 돌아가려 했지만 4·3과 6.25 전쟁이 터지면서 다시 한 번 고향으로 돌아갈 기회를 놓치고 만다. 세 딸과 아들 토키오를 키우느라 밤낮없이 일하던 용길은 어느덧 고향으로 돌아갈 생각을 포기하고 오사카 간사이 공항 근처 국유지에 자리잡은 재일교포 마을에서 자신의 이름을 딴 한국식 바베큐집을 운영하며 이국땅에서 이방인으로 차별과 가난의 어려움 속에서 가족들을 지키며 힘차게 살아간다. 이 작품은 2008 초연하여 재일 조선인의 애환과 삶을 사실적으로 묘사했다는 평과 함께, 한일 양국의 연극상을 휩쓴 정의신 감독의 동명의 원작 희곡을 바탕으로 하고 있으며 2018년 영화로 제작되어 2018 전주국제 영화제 개막작으로 상영되었다.
