Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu! Happy New Year to everyone. This is from Kojima Goseki's Shincho-Ko ki, artwork manga. As always, this is from Nobunaga's famous 1574 New Year celebration at Gifu Castle when his horse guards were presented gold dusted skulls of Azai Nagamasa, Azai Hisamasa, and Asakura Yoshikage. It must have scared the hell out of most people participating in this gruesome event.
If everything goes according to plan, I should be back in Japan in less than two weeks. I am looking forward to show and tell travelers the Okehazama Battlefield giving my insight on the battle.
Nobunaga no tame! Tenka no tame!
