I try to answer your question what Toshishun is. The song is about a story of man named Toshishun who was born into a rich family. He grew up spoiled and met all sort of bad and poor people, and ran out of his parents' legacy. He lost everything and wondered why he had to live. He eventually met a hermit and asked what is life and why he have to live and suffer. The hermit promised to give an answer if Toshishun do not speak a word whatever he witness. Toshishun agreed and the hermit disappeared. After that Toshishun got hurt by bandits and killed by a poisonous snake and tortured by demons in hell. Toshihsun endured the pain and didn't say a word, however, he found his parents tortured by demons and he finally cried for a mercy. Toshishun woke up from the nightmare and saw the hermit standing. Toshishun swore to the hermit that he live a straight life. The hermit gave Toshihun a shack and farm and disappeared forever. I suppose that the epic ending of the song represents a man who realize what a life is and the reason why human beings have to suffer to live, which is the goal of Buddhism.
Hi hi ! Toshichun(杜子春) is a short story by Japanese writer Akutagawa Ryūnosuke published in Akai Tori magazine in 1920. It is a children's story based on the novel "Du Zi Chun (Chinese version)", which is said to have been included in both "Xuan Kai Roku (Chinese version)" edited by Li Fugen[1][2] and "Xuan Kai Roku (Chinese version)" edited by Niu Shouzi
In the face of "Bodhisattva" but "Asura on the inside. It is more like a philosophy based on the Buddhist lore. There are many Bodhisattva and it means a person who is able to reach nirvana but delays doing so out of compassion in order to save suffering beings, while Asura are demigods that personifies many negative emotions such as violence, pride, hatred, greed. Therefore, I can conclude that you think you are benevolent in mind, but your action contradicts or speaks otherwise. Thus, most or all sufferings come from the mind.
Yes! Ningen Isu are so amazing. Really love their music. All of their songs I have listened to so far have their own unique flavor to them and have all been awesome. Thanks for reacting to them. \m/
Someone already explained very well and accurate in the comment section. I made it very short and simple. The lyric ' Its face of Bodhisattva but Asura inside. ' = ' Its face of Angel/ or Saint ' but The Demon/ or Devil inside '
Greetings from Japan.Thx for your share！ This lylic is religious,and difficult to understand to Japanese,too.Include me. Bodhisattva(he and we call Bosatsu) is enlightened priest , he guidance peoples.It is synonym happiness for oneself and everyone. Arura is fight , eat , war ,win, for oneself. Neary means in English world , probably, a Seeker after truth or Blessed Mother and evil.
I share your appreciation for Ningen Isu and thank you for your reaction. I would like to draw your attention to another Japanese band called Gacharic Spin (all-female) and their "Instrumental 2018". Compared to Ningen Isu the piece is more or less at the other side of the rock/metal universe, pretty funky and feel good rock. Don't be irritated by their weird outfits (the keyboarder is dressed a cheese burger !?) and (hopefully) just enjoy a great piece of music.

Try band maid. Like baby metal but more mature sounding
its more rock than metal
Bodhisattva is equal on jesus on western culture, ashura is almost same as devil on western culture..
So we can call it "hypocrites" ?
You got Christian rock. And then there's Buddhist rock.
