    Firearms in Ryukyu

    • Okinawan: 火矢 (hyaa),　手火矢 (tihyaa), etc.

    The Kingdom of Ryûkyû is known to have possessed firearms as early as the 1450s, if not earlier. They used a variety of gunpowder hand-weapons and cannon obtained from the Chinese, known as hyaa or by a variety of closely related terms, but the Ryukyuans did not make extensive use of European-style arquebuses or cannon.

    It is unclear if firearms were used as weapons, in battle, in the 15th century, or only as devices for use in royal processions and festivals, a role akin to fireworks or a "gun salute." In the 16th century, however, it is presumed that the royal army made use of Chinese-style firearms, though these were rendered obsolete by the introduction of European-style matchlocks. Though the Ryukyuans made extensive use of Chinese-style firearms in their defense against the invasion by Satsuma hansamurai in 1609, this equipment was proven sorely inferior to the European-style weapons used by the invaders.

    Sorry, I should be more professional, but you see last month I turned 40 — four friggin' decades old. They say life begins at 40, but you try telling that to Paul Walker or Chris Benoit! Ooh, sorry. Anyway, being 40 in 2015 means that inom was born just before the uppstart of the golden age of arkad gaming, inom grew up through the 8-bit and 16-bit eras and inom came of age just as the internet connected PC gamers from all around the world for unprecedented levels of virtual mayhem and carnage. inom was still young enough to thoroughly enjoy the online console explosion and the Xbox 360 ranks as one of my all time favourite game consoles. For the past five years I've been prattling on about my favourite arkad games and occasionally I've talked about modern games, but those articles are now few and far between. I've defined myself as a gamer since before that wa

    The Pivot to Asia: The 34th Tokyo International Film Festival

    Poet

    Issue 100

    Preamble

    Following the previous year’s abbreviated edition – when the global pandemic forced organisers to scale back the event and forgo its main competition – the Tokyo International Film Festival returned in full force in 2021. What is more, the festival added glitz and glamour to the proceedings in the form of the one and only Isabelle Huppert, who, as the head of the jury, breezed into the opening ceremony in style in her head-turning Balenciaga garb.

    True, strict antivirus measures remained in place from last year, complete with the face-covering requirement, infrared temperature checks, and hand sanitisers stationed at the door. And despite the lull in daily Covid-19 cases recorded in the country after a summer surge that followed the Tokyo Olympics, pandemic-induced border controls meant that, once again, the festival was deprived of its nominal international dimension.
