Have you ever heard about Haiku? Haiku are a style of poetic writing using a small number of words to convey a much deeper feeling or eomotion. Those haiku explore many themes and continue to be popular both in Japan and globally. It is a 17 syllable poem of three lines: 5-7-5, which is pronunced Go hichi Go in Japanese. What it means by this is that Haiku starts with 5 syllables, followed by 7 syllables, and followed by 5 syllables. Take a look at the following Haiku, which is written by a famous master of Haiku, Matuo Basho.
Furuikeya is 5 syllables.
Kawazutobikomu is 7 syllbables.
Mizunooto is 5 syllables.
Yet, it does't mean the number of Japanese symbols are 5-7-5.
From two days ago, people living in Tokyo have been seething with fear. There have been battles of Yakuza in the middle of Tokyo.
On the 8th of Febuary, one man from Sumiyoshi gumi was killed by two guys from Yamaguchi gumi, and then this battle has been getting worse. On the 9th of Febuary, two man from Yamaguchi gumi did the counter attack by firing guns at Yamaguchi office in Shibuya and Toshimaku.
Apparenlty, it is because of territory conflict in Ronppongi and Shibuya.
In Japanese, Yakuza stays each city and gets money from people who opens shops in their territory for no reasons, and this is called Mikajime ryou. In the eyes of the law, you DON't need to pay for it, but the majory of people pay the money for their protection from other Yakuza.
This is one of the resrouce of Tokyo's Yakuza.
Yamakuchi gumi is the biggest Japanese yakuza group from Kobe, and Sumiyoshi gumi is the biggest yakuza group in Tokyo.
It is unusual to translate a Westner's name with the literal meaning.
So, can't we write Japanese name symbols with the literal meaning?
Yes, we can write Japanese name symbols with the literal meaning, and this is called the purely denotative translation method.
The purely denotative translation method focus solely on preserving themeaning of the original English name, but it is NOT appropriate to use this method for writing names in Japanese symbols.
The reason why we don't take its method is that we need to know the original meaning of the English name.
So, we normally use the purely phonetic translation method.
Today, we will show you the kanji symbol that is related to the way of heart. Although there are many ways to write the same word in Japanese kanji, today's Japanese kanji symbol is often used in books, or magazines, especially with the historical story.
The kanji symbolf for self depicts three horizontal strings and it is joined by two vertical strings. It represent the understanding that we are all joinged, but we must know ourselves first before we understand others. (Reference: Kanji symbol of self)
We have received new Japanese kanji symbols photos from our happy customers. So, we will show you some of them and testimonials.

Have you ever been to Tokoyo? Well, the major transportation in Tokyo is trains, especially subways.
In Tokyo, there are twelve lines in Tokyo, eight of which are Tokyo Metro and four are Toei subway. With the next blog, we will show the symbol of a particular line, because every entrance of the subway is marked by a particular symbol mark and the name of the station.
If you have never been to Tokyo, it might be big difficult. I see many foreigners wondering which line to get. Of course, I will help them to get the right station.
