Watching and enjoying the anime series “Blue Lock ブルーロック” and noticed the writer is one Kaneshiro Muneyuki 金城宗幸. First thought is a fellow shimanchu! He’s from Osaka but not much else is known about him.

La razón de que el lugar donde nació el y varios dialectos del japonés, llamados lenguas ryukyuenses, esté de actualidad, es que ha llevado a cabo ejercicios militares en la zona ante el anuncio de de doblar su presupuesto de Defensa para 2023.

Y, además, es una zona digna de visitar. Aquí algunas fotos.

My thanks to Luke Roberts for spotting and buying me this book, a post-1799 copy of the Rikuyu engi 六諭衍義, a Chinese book of essays on morals first introduced to Japan by the scholar-official 程順則 in 1714, and first published in Japan in 1722.

One of many examples of things introduced from Luchu into , and a neat thing to get to show in class.

Can't believe it's been only about a month and a half since my last visit to Okinawa. Missing it very much. (While of course acknowledging my privilege of being able to visit as much as I have these past X years of border closings and so forth.)

Adding tags so this intro "toot" (honestly?) can be found more easily.
