@両角-k4q 4 года назад

The adoptive father of Yoshinaka is Kanazashi Morizumi. Moritsumi appears in another classic book called "Azuma Kagame. He was the priest of Suwa‘s shrine, so he couldn't go to war. He was HeiKe's retainer was also a family man, so after the subjugation of Yoshinaka, he was captured by Minamoto no Yoritomo and deposited at of Kajiwara. Morizumi was a master of archery Fujiwara Hidesato‘s school. He showed off his yabusame at Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. At this time Yoritomo gave the horse on the rampage on purpose as a horse that Morisumi rode, and when he shot through the eight targets that Morizsumi had specified, Yoritomo pushed the difficult task to shoot through the shards of the shot, the skewer that set the target further, but Morizumi was pardoned because he shot it all brilliantly. Me, my son, and my daughter's graduated junior high school is built on top of the ruins of his castle

A: a human skull By the way, it kind of sounds like you are pronouncing it "kuso" instead of "kiso." It's admittedly a subtle difference but definitely sounds like "kuso" to me. This especially stood out to me because kuso means crap in Japanese... but I wouldn't complain if you kept it that way, because it's kind of funny to hear about "lord crap" running around and killing people.

There were Tomoe and Yamabuki in the concubines of Yoshinaka. Tomoe was a woman, but she was a samurai of match for a thousand. “Tomoe was especially beautiful, with white skin, long hair, and charming features. She was also a remarkably strong archer, and as a swordswoman she was a warrior worth a thousand, ready to confront a demon or a god, mounted or on foot. She handled unbroken horses with superb skill; she rode unscathed down perilous descents. Whenever a battle was imminent, Yoshinaka sent her out as his first captain, equipped with strong armor, an oversized sword, and a mighty bow; and she performed more deeds of valor than any of his other warriors.“ She is best known for her loyalty and courage at the Battle of Awazu in 1184. When Yoshinaka was defeated there, with only a few of his soldiers standing, he told Tomoe Gozen to flee because he wanted to die with his foster brother Imai no Shiro Kanehira and he said that he would be ashamed if he died with a woman.

@mr.2083 4 года назад

You have already given the reward for the quiz question so not doing it for that. But I have to say, it's kind of a odd question. Not because the question itself is weird, but there's three possible answers found in Japanese mythology. It could be either a skull(preferably human), a bundle of reeds or a leaf. You probably already knew this, but the question peaked my interest since you normally ask questions that have one viable answer.
