LOL... I dunno why but I find this kinda funny xD;

[LotusRibbon]

I find it more amusing that he actually knows how to do this. Breaking cultural gender roles one tradition at a time? Lol.

I vaguely remembering a mention of his mother making him learn when he was young but I can't remember how accurate that is now. Haha.

[kurenaisama]

omg hi again xD Well, it's nice seeing him do something traditional calmly. I mean... looking at his roles, and prolly his true self, all of them are like a different Araki but sometimes he can barely contain all his excitement (specially backstage). It's like he can't stop moving xD

[LotusRibbon]

Once he got over that 'cool one' phase and showed his true colors he showed what a spazz he is lol.

Strangely enough, it's so they can have a cup of tea.

The Japanese people have embraced certain actions and ceremonies from their past, as well as extreme politeness. I suspect it's a way to deal with high population density and the hurly-burly of modern life. It's a way to slow down and ground themselves in beauty.

And there is a certain status. If one can afford a room in their house just for the tea ceremony, or better yet a dedicated tea house in their garden... well, that is something!

Actually the japansese tea ceremony is traditionally a male thing. The reason women mostly do it now is because women are doing EVERYTHING to do with culture these days. Notice how at special occasions you'll see a women wearing a traditional kimono but the man is wearing a Western suit.

Happy to have this for practice, but.... I am a beginner, but there are some things here that would make my teacher unhappy....

[QuickAtTheKeys]

some of my friends don't believe me when I tell them I am Japanese...(i am XD) BUT i have the Facial structure..not the body.. I am also Italian and have a very athletic build.. its aggravating sometimes because I am so proud of my culture!

very nice job I loved it :)

Beautiful! Though I do agree with the natural soundtrack.

裏千家の手前ですが、こういった公の場で公開するには未熟すぎま­す。

もう少し稽古を積まれてからこういった行動に出るべきです。

恥ずかしい限りの手前であることをｂ自覚してください。

裏流の恥さらしです

@44okiru44 because japanese people think pruning eyebrow will be good for their health and somehow it is also normally considered as waxing ^^

[joniuyen]

@90shilling it 's simply because purple is masculine-like colour and orange is feminine-like colour! And for female, pink/red is also used.
