another part of Onimusha now makes sense to me, lol

This is awesome. You're the best, Dave, nobody else I know goes out of their way to cover these rituals and festivals. Thanks as always for the upload.

@Jimaera thanks! Japanese festivals and events are not only my hobby, they are kind of my obsession. My quasi-New Years resolution is to try and edit a good deal of my backlog footage of previous festivals I've been to and get them up

wow whata cool place!

[RurouniHeart]

really fascinating watching the archers prepare to shoot the bow. maybe I'm weird for being interested in the small stuff more than the actual shooting of the bow, lol.

[RoninDave]

@RurouniHeart that's what makes Kyudo so interesting

Nice, I was at that place in Kamakura, witnessed a Shinto wedding then.

Thanks for a awesome video Dave, as always.

@MageThief shinto weddings are cool but I understand not fun to actually be in. I was the guest at one of my co-workers'. He didn't like it so much - said it was grueling
