All about KOMAINU : The Unique and Disappearing Culture of Japan


Even in Japan, komainu are regarded as having low artistic and cultural value. This is a labourious work that reviews this unique cultural heritage from the two aspects of ‘art’ and ‘cultural anthropology’. The book contains about 540 photographic images, all in colour.

Chapter 1: What is komainu?
Chapter 2: Types of komainu
Chapter 3: The komainu culture at the mercy of history

This book is not only about the knowledge of komainu, but also about the background to the birth of the mysterious culture of komainu and the issues in modern Japanese history that can be seen from the perspective of komainu. The author pursues komainu as a kind of ‘pop culture’ and attempts to explore depths that have not been mentioned from a conventional perspective. Of course, simply looking at the images is also enjoyable!

Hina Dolls of Yoshiko Suzuki and Ikuko Suzuki: A New World of Hina Dolls that Combines the Traditional Japanese Craft of "Kimekomi" with Artistry


Hina dolls are glittering dolls modeled after aristocratic couples of the olden days that are displayed during the Girls' Festival (Hinamatsuri) on March 3 in Japan. In Japan today, dolls with costumes called “Kokinbina,” which became popular after the Showa period (1926-1989), are commonly used.
But there was a doll artist who sought artistic expression in these dolls. Yoshiko Suzuki (1928-2008) is a a second-generation pupil of Goyo Hirata (1903-1981), a doll artist who was recognized as a living national treasure. In his later years, Goyo Hirata established the highly artistic Japanese doll called “Kimekomi Costume Doll."
By incorporating the traditional technique of “kimekomi costume dolls” into Hina dolls, Yoshiko Suzuki has opened up a new world of Hina dolls that are different from ordinary Hina dolls in that they are both artistic and prestigious. She founded a group of creative hina doll artists called “Kinosuzukai” with her pupils who had gathered together in admiration of Yoshiko Suzuki.
Today, her daughter-in-law, Ikuko Suzuki, is the head of the group and continues to produce Hina dolls using the kimekomi technique started by Yoshiko. These supreme dolls are made using the “Kimekomi costume doll technique,” which exists only in a few places in the world. The difference between these dolls and ordinary dolls is obvious in this photo collection.

Notebook of Yoji Mori, Janitor


The notebook left behind by Yoji Mori, who has taken up residence as a "janitor" at the abandoned school, is filled with interesting information and stories that may seem absurd.
Humanity is currently moving toward the "end of the world." How did this happen?
First, enjoy the environmental philosophy based on entropy theory, quantum theory, spirit-flesh dualism, and the interpretation of Genesis and Ezekiel in the Old Testament.
Then, while relearning the horrors of human history, we will get to the bottom of our modern society, which is being manipulated by fake information and information manipulation, and is pushing us toward a terminal situation.
How much is virtual and how much is real?
A new type of 21st century written entertainment has been born!

New Interpretation of the Kremna Prophecy: Tarabić's view of the World's Last War


Miloš Tarabić, a farmer who lived in the small Serbian farming village of Kremna in the 19th century, and his nephew, Mitar Tarabić. The two Tarabićs left behind a number of prophecies that were incomprehensible to the people of their time.
Their surrogate father (the guardian of Serbian Orthodox Church), the priest Zaharije Zaharić, passed down the contents of their "prophecies" and they became widely known.
When carefully read, some of the prophecies remind us of the new coronae outbreak and vaccine infodemics in 2020 and beyond.
It also focuses on issues facing people today, such as the collapse of the U.S.-led economic world dominated by finance, the shift to a BRICS-centered world backed by substantial national power in terms of resources and population, and the impending threat of the "world's final war," which is currently before our eyes.
The world's final war may have already begun in the form of "cognitive warfare" and "biological warfare."
Let us take the message from the 19th century to modern man.

God Grows: Beyond Spirit-Flesh Dualism


Beyond the simplistic spirit-mind dualism of body and soul, this ambitious theism develops a thought model in which the consciousness of "I" is generated by the brain (physical body) and "God", who has a personality.
This world (this physical world that I am aware of) has a multiple structure, and the "conscious world" that my consciousness generates is a part of its components.
Consciousness is not created by the brain alone, but by something other than the brain connected to the brain.
Just as the brain is constantly changing, so is "something" (God) associated with the brain.
This is a unique essay that tries to solve the mystery of this world and the consciousness of "I" with a thought model different from the conventional simple spirit-mind dualism.
The latter half of the book also touches on how to face the post-2020 attempts of a "reset world" and a "tyrannical world in which humans are mechanized".
