866. High Life/JFK

"Once again, I would like to return to the topic of what a famous family is"

That's what Ji said.

"The school you attend is the best ladies' school in Japan. Your school was actually involved in that way with me, Song Yi, and now your late Kano's grandfather."

The head of the three famous houses...?

"From the end of the war, in a period of high economic growth… Japanese society has changed dramatically. Simply put, some of the bourgeoisie and powerful members of the Bourgeois class, born after the traditional famous houses and Meiji Restoration, have fallen...... new emerging classes have come to mind. I'll tell you what, part of it went down. Many famous families endured and still survive the turbulent times of change. We saved the house with our lives, too. '

Ji's story will be very interesting for the ladies born into famous houses.

It is their own existence as' ladies' … that is proof that the famous Japanese family survived.

"It's the same thing that Kabuki and other traditional entertainment houses have survived to this day. Kabuki also... In times when the coalition forces occupied Japan, it was once a lightning in front of the wind. The fact that there happened to be a Kabuki-loving man among the officers of the United States Army allowed him to survive. Still, 'I don't care about feudal stories' but 'Enemies, don't perform because they don't fit into Christian ethics'... they were under ridiculous constraints'

That... happened.

"The occupying forces even complained about Japanese chess." The rule that allows you to use pawns taken from your chess opponent is connected to the idea of captive abuse. It's a barbaric game, 'he said, trying to ban it once.'

... Huh?

"Chess" is barbaric......

What would happen to computer games right now if they were banned for that reason?

You know what? MacArthur, who occupied Japan, said… 'If the United States and Germany were to reach the age of forty-five, the Japanese would still be a 12-year-old boy, based on scientific, artistic, religious, cultural and other developments'. "Japan should learn from Europe and America, and Europeans and Americans are in a position to coach Japan," he said.

The Japanese are way behind the Europeans and Americans... still kids?

'That's how stupid the people who occupied Japan were... No, you can say I was a country man'

Ji's voice seemed very grumpy.

"Most of all... for Japan, that would have been fortunate."

... Huh?

'Before the war...... Franklin Roosevelt was doing something called' New Deal Policy 'in America to recover from the Great Panic. You guys must have learned that in history class. It was the first administration to adopt' Modified Capitalism 'by Kanes. Instead of leaving the economy to market freedom, governments will intervene actively and redistribute assets. All the humans in charge of' New Deal Policy 'were young and burning with idealism. But... realistically,' New Deal Policy 'could not always be described as a success. It's really hard to change the fabric of a society that has been created... with the power of politics. Even though the world can't possibly follow the officials' plan as they envisioned it... a nation called the United States could be transformed into a good... because it took part in the war '

... war.

"We needed a lot of military supplies. Europe is losing its industrial power as a result of the war. All the supplies used by the United States forces were made by the United States. If it's under war, the people will gamble most of the time. Summertime is introduced and it becomes normal for women to go to work. The United States, while participating in World War II… Hawaii was attacked, but the mainland of the Americas was hardly a battlefield at all. Keeping industrial productivity...... I was able to recreate the systems in the country for the reason that 'it is under war'

The war... changed America?

'In normal times, there are many dissidents. Sometimes they are obstructed by people with vested interests. But if you're in a time of war......' Are you going to side with an enemy country 'and you can crush that kind of crap. You can do what the government wants, you can do the restructure'

Ji says...

'In the end...... for Franklin Roosevelt, the war saved him. If there had not been a war, perhaps he and those who were conducting his' New Deal policy 'would have ended up in the seat of power. But that just happened. Some people say "conspiracy theory" that Franklin Roosevelt went to war with Japan, hoping for himself... but I don't trust you. One president's thoughts alone don't move the history of the world. Everything... just a coincidence, you should think that Franklin Roosevelt just got what he thought'

Ugh... yeah.

Why do you say one thing, "Franklin Roosevelt" under his full name?

"... brother. That's because there's another president in America named Roosevelt."

Luna read my mind... and whispered to me.

"Theodore Roosevelt was... someone who had a hobby of making a deady bear"

"Oh, yeah."

I know you well......

"After the war, the Americans who came to Japan and created an occupation policy… are all survivors of that New Deal policy. So, very ideal... I went through one policy after another where my brain indoctrinates poor Japanese, who remain twelve-year-olds. From us...... they only looked more like 'idealistic children' and only felt like 'unknown countrymen'. But... among the Japanese, those who are in tune with them Americans appear. As the Americans say...... Japan is a child who can't live without being coached by Americans, Rain Liga stuff is anything good stuff, and all, there are people who say Japan has to accept it. No, those who were poisoned to the core of their heads by that simple idea still survive many... '

Ji says...

"Drowning in American culture... I admire the glorious and material life that comes out of the movies. But...... what was being conveyed by that was more than middle-class family life in America. This is not the time for everyone to have a camera, as it is now. Few people can travel abroad. True...... 'Beautiful Life' cut out as a movie, not a real American life. In fact... there were and still are social contradictions in the United States. There is also distortion. Even the poor classes exist. Nothing like that... only America like paradise grabbed the hearts of the Japanese '

Maybe with the internet... there isn't.

Movies are a crop...... not like reality.

"To the Japanese, watching American films is what actually happened within MacArthur's policy. They knew the power of the movie. Speaking of how the nation's public knew the faces of the presidents and politicians before the telecast...... it will be shown before this part of the film, by 'News Film'

Before the movie...... News?

"President Franklin Roosevelt used a wheelchair for everyday life because his lower body was mahi... I mean... I was physically handicapped. But... most of the American people didn't know that. '

Oh, even though the president is a wheelchair... don't we all know?

'He... he could have stood out of a wheelchair and taken just one step. So his footage, used in news films, starts just one step toward the stage. I don't show wheelchairs. So many of the people think he can walk normally......'

so that you can walk normally...... impressed by the video?

'America is wide...... even the presidential race is not something that can go around the whole of America. It's best to move from a big city to another. His policies are read in newspapers. Speeches are heard on the radio. But the way he was actually moving... was the majority of the people that he'd only seen it in a news movie'

...... ha.

"In fact... there's a scene where James Gagney dressed as Franklin Roosevelt dances tap dancing on his desk in a movie called" Yankee Dootle Dundee "made during the war. If Franklin Roosevelt really knew he couldn't walk and was living a wheelchair life...... he wouldn't shoot a scene like that. Even the audience who watched the movie... would stop laughing. It's the lowest level of joke."

If the president made a scene where he could barely walk but tap dance or something......

Serious people will get angry.

If it were now, the internet would be on fire.

"Franklin Roosevelt can walk just one step. The footage just shows it honestly. No one is lying. But...... I'm not lying, but I'm not telling the truth either. The president had a bad leg. These are the kind of people who came to Japan knowing that they could use an un-fair impression manipulation. '

Ji says so.

'And just because we won the war... it was like a child in front of a toy trying to replace a country with a history and culture of Japan with chatter just because of their own unsolicited ethics and assumptions. Except... being children of New Deal policy, they were too idealistic and too childish. Great malice or malicious outrageous behavior...... thinks it was done minimally. No, if it wasn't America with the' Spirit of the Good Child 'that occupied this country, but other countries...... I don't think Japan would have been destroyed by mess and could ever recover again'

... That's right.

'The famous family... went as far as to be crushed. No, actually... some homes have been sacrificed. Fortunately, the most dangerous period didn't last that long... the US can no longer afford to toy with Japan. The Cold War with the Communist Nation has begun.'

... Lacen?

"In the first plan of the occupying forces... all the old and ruling classes in Japan were meant to be crushed. They. As for the United States flying the flag of democracy...... were going to redistribute all the assets of the ruling class to the people. They don't know the value of a house that's been around for a long time... '

The value of the famous house...... the occupier did not know.

'But there was a cold war. And once we eliminated the old and ruling classes from Japan... the United States feared that it would be the communists who would rise. As a result of speaking of democracy, Japan cannot wait to blur. After Japan... there are no islands in the Pacific until Hawaii. Japan's communion means that East Asia as a whole will be taken to the east. So the United States... hastened to strengthen its relationship with the old and ruling class in Japan. You thought you couldn't stop the wave from the common class to burning communion if you didn't reactivate the Japanese system of governance that has existed since before the war...'

So... the famous family stayed.

"This becomes an issue that shadows Japan's post-war history for a long time. I mean... the class that has ruled Japan since before the war has been brought back to its original seat without taking responsibility for the defeat. The general public... especially the younger ones, the students find it offensive. It will mean 'pull those guys down'. But... in those days, when I totally broke the Japanese system until then and tried to turn it into something new... I think it would have been a mess. Japan… only endured the first years of that occupation… I think the original leadership has been allowed to resurrect so far. No, of course that's... I'm just thinking that because I'm a person belonging to that old ruling class... I know I have another opinion. As a result, I know that there are a lot of things that have been lost, broken... and transformed into strange shapes. But... a country called Japan managed to leave behind something called 'Japan Rashisa'... and I want to believe that we were not destroyed '

Ji... said so.

"What we have inherited from our forefathers... is not blood, nor property, nor name. Something called Japan... Japanese... something that makes the world proud that we are Japanese... and I think it's our consciousness as guardians."

Ji's voice... the ladies were listening seriously.

'You can't be great because you're a famous person. It can't even be smart. It can't even be honorable. There's no way he's elegant. It should be expensive. However, if you just have money... if you're just being kind to the powerful, isn't that what makes such a person different from the rise of the emerging?!

Money and power aren't the only things...

'To a creature called man… the consciousness of' Let's stay the same forever 'and the consciousness of' Let's keep changing '… conflicting consciousness live together. It is a contradiction that life itself possesses. In other words... both the' will 'to try to pass on the gene permanently, if possible from parent to child, and the' will 'to evolve and change more and more according to their sometimes environments... are things where contradictory' consciousness' resides. As such, man... life, he lays down generations. There are many people who are driven by the 'consciousness' to change according to the times... Then we... I think we exist as the spokesperson for another 'consciousness' of 'Leaving Old Things Whenever Possible'... '

That's the role of a famous family......

'I'm letting my granddaughters... wear their own kimonos. I also let him wear what he did in his tatami life. You too, I suppose. Your school... should be educating you to behave as Japanese. Me, Kano and Kano, to be that kind of school... because I gave them instructions'

Oh... the ladies at the famous house, they were all learning to dance...

Is it to remember the life of Japanese clothing?

"Your school... basically only allows children of famous families to enter. He also makes all the daughters of emerging economists, politicians, entertainers say no. Instead, we make a huge annual donation to your school... '

Ji says...

'Many prestigious schools... have embraced such human children for management. But the children born into houses that are not famous... are not like us. They are' consciousness' petitioners opposite us. In other words... 'keep changing the status quo'. It must have been a great success in this day and age because those 'conscious' people are strong. I guess I got my status and my money. But we... are still young, our daughter, no, you're already a grandson... and I didn't want you guys to have that kind of 'consciousness'. Not after you grow up. If you are after you have properly established something called yourself... you will not be upset to meet people with different thoughts than yourself. But within a very young age... kindergarten, elementary, middle and high school... I wanted you to wear your 'consciousness' as children of a famous family. I wanted you to be the person on the 'protect', 'tell' side instead of 'change'...... '

So Mizuzu's school is... a closed space for only famous people.

'Regardless, that is the wish of the parents of our old generation… of their own accord. From you guys, you might think,' Make me like it ',' I prefer things that change '. But that's all I want you to know. First...... old stuff, good stuff, japanese...... know the beautiful stuff. Things that the general public has forgotten to look at. We want you guys to watch something like that first. I want you to know. And if possible...... I want you to love me. To create an opportunity for you guys to touch things like that... we spare no money. Still, if' things that change are better '...... we don't stop. I won't force you. But first... I want you to know. Why Japanese beautiful things have been handed down as cotton. And how much our famous family has been involved in protecting such things......!

Ji says...

'It is now in a national museum... a Kazuki family treasure, with one designated as a national treasure. My ancestors 300 years ago... say it is one of the treasures that escaped Kyoto burned in the struggle. I'm sure if that ancestor hadn't brought it out, it wouldn't exist. Then 300 years...... it's a treasure because the Kazuki family has been protecting it for so long. If my house is worth anything... maybe it's just what I've been telling you about that treasure. That's when I had the power to go beyond... once a famous house.'

"Not only are things... courtesies, behavior, words... it's the famous family that carries on all kinds of cultures to modern times."

Kano... said so.

"Me too... you have taught my late grandfather sternly"

"... I seem to have lost my mind."

Song Yi says... that.

"I think Kazuki and... without trying to understand my grandfathers' thoughts... had forgotten the heart of the famous family..."

It seemed very, very reflective.

"Me... because I said to my grandfather, 'In order to survive the times to come, we can't do it the way the Song Yi family does now' and all the other cheesy things..."

"I know what you're going to say, even the songbird." We're... we're living a really turbulent time, unlike you guys who've only been alive for over a decade. In keeping with the times, while desperately trying to survive...... I have tried not to lose pride as a 'famous family' to each of them. Now, it looks as if only Kano's house has leaned... but it's not. Me and Songxi are just saying we were lucky. Instead… I also think I had to lose some of the important things I had to leave behind. The old famous house breeze... Isn't Kano the one who leaves it the most?

"Wow, I don't know..."

Shy, Kano answers.

"In Kano's house… ancestral generations, the blood of the minister in charge of the guard also continues. But the Kazuki family has lost the blood of such a minister. That's why we're going to create a senseless organization called Kazuki Security Services... '

I... see Shie, the guard, behind Kano.

Sie seemed just a little happy that Ji told her so...

You'll just feel like you've been praised for your ancestral lineage as well as yourself.

"We... all that's left is my lineage as a guard. My Sebastianus... is not as strong as all the Kazuki guards."

Song Yi looks up to her guard, Umeko Yamada, about Sebastianus.

Yeah though he said something like 'My guard is strong'......

As a matter of fact, I was surprised at the strength of Michi and Edie.

"Sorry... Miss Peach"

I bow my head softly...... Umeko.

"Fine, when this happens... you too, let me arch with you at Kazuki's. I'm not going to tell you that we're not going to be the only ones. The Songqi family is also a famous family… we would like to work with you."

...... ha.

If the guards of the Song Yi family of the Three Famous Family are going to train with us...

The guards of all the famous families will be gathered together.

The restraint and hostility between famous families... should be gone now.

"Truly... I was a busy daughter. Kazuki 'My Lord'...... Thank you very much for sharing a story that will help. I'll tell my grandfather that when I get home."

Song Yi said that......

"Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Ji... laughs.

"Song Yi, you know why I'm called" Your Excellency "...?

"Well... I heard you used to work as a British ambassador when you were younger... and since then you have come to call me 'My Lordship'...?!

... Is that it?

Sure, me too... though I hear that?

"Is your grandfather... calling me" Your Excellency "?

"Well, that's... you know, your grandfather didn't call me that."

'I guess so. The one with the song... I know.'

Ji's low laugh...... sounds.

'I've never done anything like the British ambassador...!

... not the British ambassador?

Then why... 'My Lord'?

'Really, if you've done a proper background check on me... you should know. And those people would never call me' Your Excellency '...'

Duh... what do you mean?

'Once upon a time there was one Irish immigrant boy in America. The fact that he immigrated from Ireland with his family meant that his lineage was poor... if he hadn't immigrated his hometown, he would have been in a situation where he couldn't live. But as soon as he moves to America, the boy loses his father. Working desperately even though he's still a boy...... he starts a liquor store in front of a shipyard in Boston. succeed in its work'

Ji... speaks out.

"He gets a little success from his drinker father. I get a wife from a wealthy house of Irish immigrants and help other Irish people become local face players. At the end of the day, I'm sure... I think he went up to the state senator or something. '

That's... whose story is that?

'Later called' Your Excellency '... is the man's son. Born into a house where he grew wealthy, he went to prestigious university. But he who became... could not be admitted to a club to which only the sons of the upper class could belong. After college, he uses his father Conne to become... an official to oversee the bank. So when he learns inside information about various banks, he gets huge insider trading over and over again. Become familiar with the people in the back world. Once the sobriety laws are enforced, you make a lot of money smuggling liquor in concert with the mafia. From anywhere, it's the Rokudenasi of the Builder. I bought a movie company for an actress who made me a mistress, and if I failed to make the film, I tried to make my mistress carry that debt. No Shards of Good Sense......'

Ji's story continues.

"He also enters politics imitating his father... and the man who is working with the mafia in the back becomes a member of the House of Representatives. Franklin Roosevelt, whom we were talking about earlier, hated the man. I'm an unproductive, lying, gobbly, backdoor person... I deserve to be hated. But he's financially capable. There are connections with various human beings. And... ambitious. He asks Franklin Roosevelt to put herself in a key government position. As a Roosevelt, you can't make such a disgusting human being a cabinet member. So... I thought I'd send you as far away as I could. Yes... I have appointed the British ambassador...!

The son of a poor immigrant... a rising villain became an ambassador.

'But the man... when he went to England, he was just prestigious and useless. Defending Hitler, he said Britain should give way to Nazi Germany. When London was attacked by the Nazis... neither the royal family nor Churchill escaped first, even though they remained on the ground that they could not abandon the citizens of London. When I returned to the United States, I rambled...... I was finally relieved of my British ambassador by Franklin Roosevelt. But he... dissatisfied it and kept letting the people around him call themselves ambassadors until he died...' Your Excellency '

Oh, the episode they thought was Ji's thing......

Is it the man's thing?

'His ambitions did not disappear. If I can't... I made my own son a politician. What he wanted was... to get the president out of his own lineage'

Ji says...

'And... that ambition came true. You know who his son is...?

Of course I don't know.

"... John F. Kennedy"

Song Yi... shrugs.

'Yes... it's the Kennedy family that is now America's' famous house '. But if you go back in time... the first generation is an extremely poor immigrant and father of a liquor store. The second generation is Gorotsuki. The third generation just happens to be president...'

Ji says...

'Even in this modern day......' Famous House 'is born. Be made. Even the Kazuki family, if they traced back their ancestors... could have been of this degree'

Any famous family...... has a start.

There are a lot of things to be able to do.

In the family line, even the bad guys will show up.

"But what kind of people the founders were... it's the people who inherit the house that make them proud. Don't forget that. '

Ji's voice... sounds.

'I... as the head of a famous house, I make you call yourself' My Lordship 'so that you never fall for it. Even I lose my hold... if I leave it to the power of the Kazuki family and try to live as I please... when I become the same person as that Gorotsuki. It's a commandment.'

Huff and Ji laugh.

'Calling me' My Lordship 'is... my men first. That is what they are commanded to call it. Every time they call me' My Lord ', I shall be thrilled. Am I… doing my duty as the Lord properly? Doesn't he act like that guy, like he's a bastard...?

Every time they call me... I look at myself.

'Other than that... the thing that uses the fool on me. Or people who aren't even studying me. Those people, they all make fun of me in their minds. Say something good... in your belly, you're laughing at me'

'My lord' is a special name......

'To be clear... even if he was a former/ambassador, now he's just private, but a human being happy to call himself' Your Excellency '... he's the shittiest idiot thing. They think you're that kind of person, and they treat you like that... but not when your heart is admonished.'

Ji... said so.
