80年代の戦隊モノ「世界忍者戦ジライヤ」の主役を努めた筒井巧が初見良昭から戸隠流後継者に指名されたそうな。

35代目と言ってるけど実際は2～3代目。3代前の真竜軒は完全に架空の人物で2代前の高松も怪しくて論争になっている。ネットで見られる高松寿嗣の生い立ちは出どころが戸隠流なので信用出来ない。門弟でさえも1970年代に亡くなったとされる高松寿嗣の墓がわからないそうなのでそういうことなのだろう。

ところで久々に高松寿嗣でググってみて面白いことがわかった。20年ぐらい前までは高松寿嗣は大日本武徳会の初代会長だったとかいうホラを吹いてたんだが（過去のエントリー参照）、そんなすぐバレるホラを突っ込まれてその後天津武徳会の初代会長とすり替えた。で、最近はそれが日本民国青年武徳会という名称に変化してるんだｗ　戦前のあの時代に「日本民国」なんて呼ぶか？　

大日本武徳会の成立過程と構造という研究論文によると、この中の1902年時点での武徳会の地方支部一覧の中に台湾はあっても満州支部はない。もちろん日本民国青年武徳会などひとことも載っていない。
新しい宗家も先代のようにこれらについて突っ込まれ続けるのだろう。]]> 戸隠流 http://ninjer.blog.shinobi.jp/%E6%88%B8%E9%9A%A0%E6%B5%81/%E6%88%A6%E9%9A%8A%E4%BF%B3%E5%84%AA%E3%80%81%E6%88%B8%E9%9A%A0%E6%B5%8135%E4%BB%A3%E5%AE%97%E5%AE%B6%E3%81%AB%E6%8C%87%E5%90%8D%E3%81%95%E3%82%8C%E3%82%8B Mon, 09 Dec 2019 05:51:13 GMT ninjer.blog.shinobi.jp://entry/675 Real ninjer actor inherited Bujinkan from Hatsumi
The lead actor of a superhero series in 80'S was appointed to be the 35th Soke of Togakure ryu by Hatsumi sensei.
The actor Tsutsui anounced on his blog.
https://ameblo.jp/haiyuu-takumi/entry-12553074598.html

The superhero series was called Sekai Ninja Sen Jiraiya, aired in 88~89. I'm sure it's well known among Ninjers since Hatsumi himself was one of the casts.

Hatsumi chose the most approppreate man for the fantasy ryuha.

Amazon link

この本によると
「幸いなことに、江戸時代はその後も平和が続く。すると1760年代あたりから、実態とはかけ離れた忍者・忍術が、芝居や本の中で活躍を始めるのだ。児雷也、飛加藤、石川五右衛門……など。芝居では、一目でそれが忍者だとわからなくてはいけない。だから、黒装束の忍者は人形浄瑠璃や歌舞伎で、このあたりから始まる。実際にそんなものを着ていたら、「私は怪しい者です」と自己申告しているようなものだ。」


他にも
「色仕掛け専門の「くノ一」なら、山田風太郎の発明と言っていいかもしれない。」

「忍者社会を階層分けし、そこに身分制度の趣まで持ち込んだのは司馬遼太郎とも、白土三平とも言われている。しかしこれも『万川集海』に「上忍」という言葉がある。ただし、意味は「すぐれた人」ということでしかないし、中忍も下忍も出てこない。」]]> 歴史の中の忍者 http://ninjer.blog.shinobi.jp/%E6%AD%B4%E5%8F%B2%E3%81%AE%E4%B8%AD%E3%81%AE%E5%BF%8D%E8%80%85/%E5%BF%8D%E8%80%85%E3%81%AE%E9%BB%92%E8%A3%85%E6%9D%9F%E3%81%AF%E3%81%84%E3%81%A4%E3%81%8B%E3%82%89%E5%A7%8B%E3%81%BE%E3%81%A3%E3%81%9F%EF%BC%9F Fri, 11 Jan 2019 03:45:04 GMT ninjer.blog.shinobi.jp://entry/673 Did Ninja really wear the black costume? Author : Seido Fujii
Amazon link

Quote from the book

"Fortunately, peacefull time goes on in Edo period. Around 1760's, fictional Ninja or Ninjutsu started appearing in theatre or books. Jiraiya, Tobikato, Goemon Ishikawa...etc.  In theatre, Ninja had to be distinguished easilly. So the black Ninja costume was beginning to seen in Joruri or Kabuki at the time. 
Wearing such a costume in real world was like appealing that I was a suspicious man."



"Sexy Kunoichi Ninja was most likely invented by Futaro Yamada."

"It was said that Ryotaro Shiba or Sanpei Shirato were the ones who brought ranks in Ninja society.
 Bansenshukai described Jonin but it meant a Ninja who's good at Ninjutsu and there was no Chunin or Genin."]]> Ninja History http://ninjer.blog.shinobi.jp/ninja%20history/did%20ninja%20really%20wear%20the Fri, 11 Jan 2019 03:41:53 GMT ninjer.blog.shinobi.jp://entry/672 Climbing a wall with Ninja Sword myth
One of well known Ninjustu "Using a sword as a step when climbing a wall." 
I'm not sure who or when the myth was created but there's a description about it on the Edo period book called "Kenko Shinron" (剣甲新論 1865) written by Oken Suzuki.
The book is about swords.

まず忍者刀そのものがフィクション刀であるのだけれど、忍術のひとつとして刀を塀に立て掛け、鍔を踏み台にして登るという有名な話がある。

参考
http://photagram.net/media/BNIHcVflC3R

コレに関して江戸後期の文書「剣甲新論」 にこのような記述があるそう。
　（以下は）俗説にて取るに足らず。攻城塀乗等の時、刀の下緒の片端を栗形へ結び付け片端を帯へ結び付け、刀を塀へ立て掛け鐔を足掛かりにし塀上へ取り乗り、下緒を引きて刀の来る如くする事あり、栗形を丈夫にするはこれ等の為なり。又、旅宿等にて、大小の下緒を結び左右に置きその上へ布団を敷き寝ることあり。又、鉄砲の台などの用あり。

原文

漆原縣囚倭人 要時羅, 語通事曰: "我等永爲朝鮮人必矣, 本道凡事, 何不直言哉? 前日接戰時, 死倭子壻弟姪等, 請於島主, 請兵隣島, 攻朝鮮, 島主曰: ‘若不永和, 則先攻巨濟事議之。’ 今年內出兵來攻明矣。 自對馬島, 距此境四十八息。 夜暗無月, 乘昏發船, 侵晨下陸, 則朝鮮人未及禦敵矣。 不獨此也, 深遠之國花加大國所在時老未者, 能變作形體, 陣中入歸時則似鼠, 還出時則如烏鳥, 變行無窮, 雖稠人列在左右, 不得解見。 欲求請此人, 城柵屋舍焚燒設計事, 對馬之人, 紛紛開說。 予乃聞知而出來。" 云 啓下兵曹。 兵曹啓, "要時羅等言, 島主欲請花加大國能變形體人助戰之說, 恐動明白, 且涉怪誕矣。然接戰時敗死人子壻弟姪等, 報復設計, 巨濟鎭爲先攻擊事, 島主前請說等語, 似爲不虛, 防備諸事, 益加謹愼事, 左右道移文何如?" 允之。

読み下し

〇慶尚道観察使宋千喜、馬を馳せて王に上啓した。
「漆原県に捕らえられている倭人要時羅が通事に語ったところによると『我々は永遠に朝鮮人になること間違いないから、どうしてすべてのことを直ちに話さないことがあろうか。先日戦ったときに死んだ倭人の子壻弟姪が島主に、“近隣の島で兵を集めて朝鮮を攻めよう”と請願したところ島主が、“もし永遠に和親しなければ、まず巨済を攻めよう”と議したので、今年中に出兵してくることは明らかである。対馬からここまでの距離は四十八息である。
月のない夜に闇に乗じて船を発し夜明けに上陸して侵攻すれば、朝鮮人は防禦できないだろう。それだけでなく、深遠の国である花加大國にいる時老未とは、姿かたちを変えるのに巧みで、陣中に入るときにはネズミのごとく、還るときはカラスのごとく千変万化するので、守備兵の列が所狭しと左右にめぐらせてあっても見つけることができない。この者に助力を請うて城冊屋舎を焼き払おうという計略を、対馬の人々が紛々に言うのを、私はかねて聞いていた......』とのことである」
この報告が王から兵曹に伝えられると、兵曹が王に上啓した。
「要時羅などの言う、島主が花加大國の姿かたちを変えるのに巧みな者に戦いの助力を請おうという話は威嚇であるのは明白で、また途方もない話です。しかし、敗死した子壻弟姪らが報復を計って、まず巨済鎮を攻撃しようと島主に請願した話などはさすがに虚言ではないようなので、防備の諸事にますます謹慎を加えることを左右道に文書で伝えてはいかがでしょうか。」
王は、これを允許した。

Annals of Joseon Dynasty
Jungjong annals 15
Jungjong 7th May 5th (1512 May)
This record was written 2 years after Sanbo-No-Ran (Riot by Japanese settlers in Korea)

The Japanese prisoner Yoshira (要時羅) testified to the interpreter 

"I tell you everything I know because I'm gonna have to be Korean rest of my life.
The Japanese whose family members were killed during the riot asked the lord of Tsushima (So clan) to send troops.

The lord said if they don't make peace, he would plan to send troops to Koje(巨濟).
It is obvious they will come within this year.
It is only 48soku from Tsushima to here, Koreans won't be able to defend if they land during dawn.
And what is more, there are Shinomi(時老未) in Hakata（花加大）.
They are good at disguise. They can sneak into enemy camp like mouse, escape like bird.
No guard can notice.
Tsushima recruited them to set fire on camps.
I heard people from Tsushima talking about it."

The testimony was reported to King and King told to The Military Affairs.
The Military Affairs told to King "What Yoshira said about Tsushima brings people good at disguise from Hakata is ridiculous, it's obvious the story is for scaring us.
But asking Tsushima to take revenge seems to be true. It is better to order to secure defence."

According to Professor Shosuke Murai (Tokyo University), Yoshira is Yoshiro(与四郎) , Shinomi is Shinobi. This testimony proves there were Shinobi in Hakata area in those days. (Of course Hakata is Kyushu Japan) And that means Sengoku war lords were hiring Shinobi.

Title "Is Hapkido a Japanese martial art? Knower doesn't think so"
http://japanese.joins.com/article/734/234734.html
Quote

"Hapkido is one of popular martial arts in Korea but has many disputes because Hapkido and Aikido are in same chinese characters, founder Choi Yong Sool first learnt Daito-ryu Aiki Jujutsu from Takeda Sokaku so people recognize Hapkido is a Japanese martial art."

"So many different associations and each Hapkido dojo teaches different techniques, many disciples open new dojo just after learning a few months. "

"Researcher Lee Ho Cheol says : Hapkido is strictly Korean culture. People should recognize its superiority rather than pointing out the bad side."

"Indonesia and Malaysia do not dispute origin of Silat."

"Choi learnt Daito-ryu from Sokaku with Ueshiba Morihei. Ueshiba started Aikido, Choi started Hapkido."

"There is a theory that Daito-ryu was originated in Three Kindoms era Korea."

"Some people suggest to change name but Hapkido is already well known name world wide and origin dispute exists only in Korea."


The purpose of the article is that Hapkido was from Aiki Jujutsu but Korean added kickings'n stuffs so now it's Korean martial art. (Same theory as TKD)
The article sounds like it's wasting to dispute origin of Hapkido but never forget to insert it  originated in Three Kingdoms hoax. 
Such a theory exists only among Korean ethno centrists.

Another hoax in the article is Choi learnt from Sokaku.
As I said on "Verification of Hapkido History" video, there's no trace that Choi was Sokaku's pupil. Sokaku didn't own a dojo, he taught to people who paid and invited him.
Sokaku left the record and Choi wasn't listed.

I thought I had to clarify this,

Togakure Ninja is fictional ninja.

You might think "What about Ninja tools in the museum in Togakushi village"
All the Ninja tools in the museum were donated by Hatsumi.
Nobody knows how he got them, they never been examined by scholars.
I am pretty sure that they were made to display in the museum just like Ninja tools in the Iga Ninjutsu museum.

There are official Togakushi village journals in Nagano Library.
The only description about Togakure Ninja was about the museum.
Togakure Ninja was officialy born when the museum was built.
There's no Togakure Ninja in historical records.
Of course some Nagano related historical records like about Takeda or Hojo mentioned Ninja(Suppa, Shinobi) but no "Togakure"
That is different from Iga/Koka.

However, to boost tourism economy, Togakushi is promoting the fictional Ninja as real.
That is a bad part of Japanese, economy is priority.
