Before the Fall special story is now available!

Hi!! I just wanted to tell that I looooooove your tumblr!!! And I was wondering if u had some information about Nagakura Shinpachi during Meiji era. Something like his wife name or how many kids he had. If u don't it's ok :3 and again I really love all the things u posted.

hakuouki-history:

It took me quite a while to find his wife’s name. It’s not mentioned in most sources, only that she was the daughter of the Sugimura family, who adopted Nagakura into the family via this marriage. Finally, found a personal name to go with that: Yone. 

Like a bunch of Edo period women’s names, it’s written down in kana, not kanji, so I don’t have to worry I misread the kanji here. 

Poking around Japanese Shinsengumi fansites, I found the following information.

Yone was born in 1849, and married Shinpachi in 1870. Her father was a Matsumae-clan physician. (Remember that Nagakura Shinpachi was born a Matsumae retainer as well, so he went back to his old connections to create a new life after the war.) She died in 1921.

Their son Yoshitaro was born February 24, 1873, and as far as I can find, was their only child. Through Yoshitaro, Nagakura Shinpachi has a bunch of descendants. I’m not sure when Yoshitaro died but he outlived his father, who died in 1915.

Nagakura also had a daughter named Iso from his Shinsengumi days, born just before Toba-Fushimi in late 1867. Her mother Kotsune, a geisha, died soon after childbirth, and Nagakura arranged for the baby to be brought up by Kotsune’s sister who lived near Kyoto. He probably never expected to see her again, but Iso grew up to be a famous actress in the Kansai region, under the name Onoe Kogame, and eventually she and her father had a reunion meeting. She died December 21, 1905.

I’ve heard that it blew Nagakura’s mind, in the late Meiji, that he had fought in the Bakumatsu in an era of swords, muskets, and samurai, and now lived in an era where there were things like movies and airplanes. But here’s my favorite Old Nagakura story:

Old Nagakura, holding the hand of one of his grandsons, was walking along somewhere, cane in the other hand and back bent. Along the way they ran into some yakuza, who tried to pick a fight with the old man.

Nagakura dropped his cane, straightened his back, and glared at the yakuza so terrifyingly and murderously that they ran away.

Nagakura then picked up his cane, bent his back, took his grandson’s hand, and kept walking.

Since Norn9 got an anime do you think Code: Realize will?

Asked by gabb-yeet

flowermiko:

Hi there! Actually at the event “Otomate Party 2015″ back in August it was announced that “Code: Realize” is getting an anime!

As of right now we don’t know when it will come out other that it’s slated for sometime in 2016. We also don’t know if it’ll be a TV anime or possibly an OVA. Personally I think given that Norn9 is airing on TV in Japan so will Code: Realize (I’m sure Otomate wants to give the franchise even more exposure to attract new fans).

As a disclaimer, I’m adding this all just my personal opinion and only theoretical and ultimately time will tell:

Looking around at some release schedules & dates of special events, I’m thinking the Code: Realize anime will come out in the Fall of 2016. Otomate likes to stretch things out to entice fans & sell as much merchandise during the waiting period. Yes, Otomate will milk a franchise for all it can. Consider the following:

1. The Norn9 anime was announced back in March of 2014 but didn’t premier until January of 2016.

2. Norn9 is considered a Winter anime. I have not  been able to find out the number of episodes but if it’s at least 12, it will last at least until Spring. I’m sure Otomate doesn’t want any of their anime competing against each other, so it’s highly unlikely we’ll see Code: Realize in anime form in the spring.

3. Code: Realize Character CDs: A total of 5 character CD’s (one per character) are schedule to be released consecutively starting in March and ending in July. I wouldn’t put it past me Otomate wants you to buy the CD’s and focus on getting those. Code: Realize fans will be getting “something” from the franchise so no need to have the anime out yet.

4. Otomate Summer Market: Another merchandise special event that takes place in June-July so again, more Code: Realize items you can get while playing the waiting game for news.

5. Otomate Party 2016: I believe this usually takes place in August (as it did last year), so here’s the perfect spot to FINALLY release some information about the anime (if we’ve not heard anything during the summer) and of course, the upcoming Code: Realize Fan Disk game.

6. I looked at the Code: Realize Twitter account and it goes far back as May of 2014 but the game did not come out until November of 2014, so that’s SIX months of marketing/promotion to get people into the game, further proving how much they’ll stretch it out in order to sell big.

The TL;DR: This is all a marketing strategy from Otomate to get you to buy buy buy until they feel it’s enough, fans are getting tired of waiting and moving on. Then it’ll be time to release the anime. Believe me, I do hope we hear something about both the Code: Realize anime AND the Fan Disk around summer time, but I wouldn’t be surprised either if all this is held back until the 2016 Otomate Party or even that the CR anime is a 2017 Winter anime. I get the feeling they will want to have the CR Fan Disk game out first.

Just my two cents in this. Be ready to arm yourself with patience & if the waiting gets too long, check out some other franchises or hopefully we’ll have some other otome games for consoles this year to help pass the time.
