    You end and start sentences with a small "yes" as and an Englishman this immediately reminds of me some wise old man. It's not a very common speech characteristic in England, especially among the lower and middle classes! I appreciate your intelligence; you have a talent for delivering a lot of information in a palatable manner. Thank you Shogo-san.

    Tomoko-sama looked like the wind. With this long hakama her feet were covered so she looked like if she was flying over the stage instead of walking. The gentle way of moving with this long clothes made her look like if she was a story herself. Shogo-sama on the other hand was like a rock, unbending, strong and loud. The master of the sword, creating the story. Together you looked like Fuji-yama covered in white clouds. You two are really perfect together, creating the most beautiful images in this world.

    Hi Shogo, Kazu and Harumi, what a gracious video! How wonderful the show is! It was a great joy for me to see this demonstration: I love swords and all the traditions that go with them. In France we do not have these beautiful shows. The whole Samurai tradition is very well shown in your video. Congratulations and thank you for your great work. All my friendship is with you, Um Abraço

    I remember watching the Last Samurai and seeing Ujio doing a dance with a fan before the battle. I was disappointed that only a small glimpse of that was shown. I would have loved to have seen more. Thank you so much for making this video!!

    It's weird to actually say it, but I was proud of myself for noticing when Tomoko was walking behind Shogo, he looked behind and moved his sword to make sure the sheaths wouldn't clash and remembering that's a rule in handling the katana. Proof I'm actually learning!

    Is it just me, or does Shogo's kimono look a lot like Himura Kenshin's in Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai X? Also, I kept thinking, "Oh man, Shogo has an advantage in a lot of these videos involving katana." His drawing and sheathing is smooth. If/when I ever make it to Kyoto, I've gotta try this!
