the spirit of Samurai

Japanese is a country that is well-known with the so called ‘country of sakura’ or else ‘ sunrise country’. Hearing the word ‘Japan’ , for me, it is so identical with the term ‘samurai‘, a social community of Japanese heroes/soldiers.

The Japanese have a deep pride towards samurai, and so many kinds of stories, comics and movies to memorize it. It seems that the term ’samurai’ doesn’t belong to Japanese only, it has been worldwide know. Even in the country I live, Indonesia, movies like Samurai X , Ronin the warrior, and some other samurai comics are familiar.

The greatness of samurai are depicted with their ability that is beyond common. A Samurai can afford to move as fast as wind, and their sword wings may break the heavy rocks, and many other amazing skills they have. It is said that the samurai noble value have been in the blood of the Japanese until the recent days. The Japanese are known with their persistent, tough, and won’t give up on things.

For me personally, the samurai stories give so much interest that I wanna find out more about. I started seek the information about Samurai. From some articles I read there’s so much things to tell about Samurai, from pre-Meiji restoration, until after Meiji restoration. To make easy to read, I will divide the stories into some parts .
