6 AGOSTO 1945

HIROSHIMA GIAPPONE 🇯🇵❤️

Le mille gru di Sadako Sasaki

(La bambina sopravvissuta al bombardamento di Hiroshima)

Il termine Origami indica l’arte di piegare la carta per dare vita a diverse figure, reali o di fantasia.

La parola deriva dal giapponese Oru 折 (piegare) e da Kami 紙 (carta). La parola Kami, con un ideogramma diverso, vuol dire anche spiriti: questa sovrapposizione di significato lega inscindibilmente l’arte degli origami con la spiritualità e la ricerca del Divino e dona a questa tecnica un significato sacrale.

L’origami stesso non è altro che la trasformazione di una cosa materiale (la carta) in qualcosa di superiore.

Ma agli origami sono legate anche a molte leggende.

Una di queste viene riportata nel libro di Sembazuru Orikata, Piegatura delle mille gru, scritto nel 1797 . Le gru sono sempre state un simbolo di immortalità nella cultura orientale e nel libro in questione viene spiegato che «chiunque riesca a piegare mille gru, vedrà esauditi i desideri del proprio cuore».

La leggenda fu presa alla lettera nel 1945, quando una bambina di nome Sadako Sasaki fu vittima delle radiazioni della bomba atomica sganciata su Hiroshima.

Il 6 agosto 1945 infatti, venne sganciata la bomba Little Boy su Hiroshima, Sadako Susaki a quel tempo aveva solo due anni e al momento dello scoppio della bomba si trovava a circa 2 km di distanza (distanza sufficiente per divenire una delle vittime di Hiroshima).

Nel novembre del 1954, all’età di 11 anni, gli effetti delle radiazioni si presentarono all’improvviso, mentre la bambina era intenta in una gara di corsa: Sadako cadde a terra per via delle vertigini. Un fastidioso gonfiore sul collo poi estesosi alla faccia e piccole macchie color porpora comparse sulla gamba sinistra costrinsero Sadako a letto. Il 18 febbraio del 1955 la diagnosi fu: leucemia. Tre giorni dopo fu ricoverata nell’ospedale della Croce Rossa con appena un anno di vita da vivere, prima cioè che i globuli bianchi proliferassero impazziti nel suo sangue portandole via l’ossigeno.

Fu la sua migliore amica, Chizuko Hamamoto, a regalarle l’origami di una piccola gru di carta ed a parlarle della leggenda e di come, realizzando mille gru con gli origami, avrebbe potuto esprimere un desiderio che gli dei avrebbero esaudito. Sadako sognava di esorcizzare la morte, di sconfiggere la sua malattia e di continuare a sperare nella vita, la sua vita e quella dell’intera umanità.

Durante i quattordici mesi trascorsi in ospedale, la bambina realizzò gru con qualsiasi carta a sua disposizione, comprese le confezioni dei suoi farmaci.

Sadako dedicò agli origami il massimo impegno poiché credeva che così facendo avrebbe posto fine a tutte le sofferenze, sarebbe potuta tornare a correre, avrebbe curato tutte le vittime del mondo ed avrebbe portato loro la pace.

A questo punto la storia diventa incerta. Una versione vorrebbe vederla realizzare più di mille gru, 1330; in un’altra versione, descritta nel romanzo Sadako and the thousand paper cranes («Sadako e le mille gru di carta») di Eleanor Coerr, si narra invece che la bambina completò soltanto 644 gru e che i suoi amici si diedero da fare per creare le restanti 356. Le mille gru furono poi sepolte con la ragazza.

La storia di Sadako è raccontata anche nel romanzo Il gran sole di Hiroshima di Karl Bruckner.

Ma Sadako non si limitò soltanto a creare gru, scrisse anche una haiku: Scriverò pace sulle tue ali / Intorno al mondo volerai /Perché i bambini non muoiano più così.

Quale sia la versione corretta la storia della piccola bambina giapponese terminò la mattina del 25 ottobre 1955.

Alla scomparsa di Sadako, gli amici e i compagni di scuola pubblicarono una serie di lettere per raccogliere dei fondi. Con la cifra raccolta fecero creare un monumento in onore della ragazza e delle vittime di Hiroshima, monumento nel quale le mani aperte e la gru in volo rievocassero il desiderio di pace e di libertà.

La gru, insieme ad altri personaggi di favole antiche è stata una delle prime figure origami.

La gru origami, piccolo gioiello di perfezione estetica, rappresenta così non solo un uccello ma anche i suoi leggendari mille anni di vita.

Per questo motivo i giapponesi ricordano con dolcezza la vicenda della bambina.

Ma da allora la gru divenne per il Giappone anche un simbolo di pace con la speranza che la sua storia e il nostro passato, non vengano mai dimenticati.

In seguito a questo episodio ad Hiroshima fu innalzato, all’interno dell’Hiroshima Peace Memorial, progettato dagli artisti locali Kazuo Kikuchi e Kiyoshi Ikebe, un monumento che rappresenta una bomba con in cima l’immagine di Sadako ritratta con le braccia aperte in un volo di preghiera, come una immortale gru.

La statua ha il titolo I bambini della bomba atomica ed è stata inaugurata il 5 maggio 1958 in occasione della festività del Kodomo no hi (giorno dei bambini).

Sotto la struttura principale si trovano due pezzi donati dal premio Nobel Hideki Yukawa: una gru di bronzo che funziona come un carillon quando è spostata dal vento e batte contro una campana della pace a cui è sospesa. Alla base del monumento si trova una lastra di marmo nero su cui è inciso in giapponese: « これはぼくらの叫びですこれは私たちの祈りです世界に平和をきずくための » ovvero « Questo è il nostro grido, questa è la nostra preghiera: per costruire la pace nel mondo ».

Le figure che circondano il monumento sono angeli, ad indicare che Sadako è in cielo tra gli altri angeli che sono morti durante il bombardamento atomico di Hiroshima.

All’interno del monumento trovano posto le ghirlande di gru che ogni anno, non solo dal Giappone, scolaresche compongono per dimostrare la loro fede nella pace. È possibile, infatti, per i visitatori, come ricordo di Sadako e come simbolo di pace, lasciare una gru di carta in una grande urna, unitamente ad un messaggio.

A Sadako Sasaki le è stata dedicata anche un’altra statua, situata al Peace Park di Seattle.

Peace Park è un parco situato nel quartiere universitario di Seattle, Washington, in un angolo del N.E. 40th Street e 9th Avenue N.E., all’estremità settentrionale della University Bridge. Costruito da Floyd Schmoe, vincitore del Premio per la Pace di Hiroshima del 1988, e dedicatogli il 6 agosto del 1990, 45 anni dopo il bombardamento atomico di Hiroshima. In questo parco vi è la statua in bronzo di Sadako Sasaki scolpita da Daryl Smith. La statua di Smith rappresenta la bambina con il volto sorridente in procinto di far spiccare il volo alla gru che tiene in una mano. La statua è stata inspiegabilmente vandalizzata nel dicembre 2003 e successivamente nel settembre 2012 ma è sempre stata pazientemente restaurata e mai dislocata in altro posto. È sempre lì assieme al suo enorme bagaglio di significati.

Intorno alla statua di Seattle si vive la stessa atmosfera della statua di Hiroshima, bambini ed adulti provenienti dalla città e da ogni parte del mondo lasciano sotto la statua origami gru, pace e speranza.

(via Huit milliards de Sadako Sasaki)

"La jeune Sadako Sasaki n’avait que deux ans, lorsqu’elle fut irradiée par l’explosion d’une bombe. À Hiroshima, tel un conte d’horreur fantastique, un nuage en forme de champignon vénéneux apparut dans le ciel. Une fois dissipé, ce nuage se muta en pluie noire, aux gouttes mêlées de cendres radioactives. Dès qu’elle sut courir, étant très tôt la plus rapide, Sadako s’entraînait en vue de rencontres sportives. Malgré les vertiges qu’elle ressentait… À onze ans, sa nuque enfla, ses jambes suppuraient. Elle ne put longtemps dissimuler ces troubles. On la trouva évanouie, et à l’hôpital, on diagnostiqua un cancer. Elle mourut de leucémie à l’âge de douze ans. Elle avait bien tenté de plier des grues de papier, car une tradition voulait qu’un vœu se réalise lorsqu’on forme 1000 oiseaux porte-bonheur. Sadako est décédée avant d’atteindre ce mille. À présent, elle incarne tous les enfants victimes de guerres. Elle n’aura pas tout perdu, si son souvenir nous aide à ne pas perdre davantage de vies, dans cette fatale course… aux armements... Défendre l’Ukraine ne vaut pas la destruction de la planète. Elle ne justifie pas la tuerie de millions d’humains. Ni les cancers des survivants. Nous sommes maintenant huit milliards de Sadako Sasaki. Nous sommes huit milliards de pions manipulés par des fous."

A black crane?

Isn't it interesting how there are so many symbolisms in JSHK?

The black crane that Tsukasa/Kokujoudai usually takes shape in is the symbol of longevity and luck.

Additionally, he is linked to Sadako Sasaki, a Japanese girl who was exposed to radiation from the atomic bomb that fell on Hiroshima when she was a baby.

Although she managed to survive, at age twelve she was diagnosed with leukemia and had a life expectancy of one year. She made the decision to make a thousand cranes to fulfill a wish for survival and peace (there is a legend in Japan according to which, whoever made a thousand origami cranes would have a wish granted by the gods)

The girl did not reach her goal, as she died after making the number 644, but her school friends continued with the mission, folded the rest and placed it on the girl's tombstone to honor her.

This is interesting to note, because Nene is the girl who only has a short life span of one year and who is desperately looking for a solution to her problem.

Isn't it interesting that Tsukasa first appeared as the paper crane? If Hanako's whish is to save Nene and the only option he has is to wish Tsukasa, him appearing like that would be a good symbolism.

After all, both stories, the real one and JSHK's, talk about the wish after creating a thousand paper cranes or removing all the paper seals to obtain a wish.

Unfortunately, Sadako didn't have enough time….. What will happen to Nene?

My Touhou oc Sadako Hiroshima, the paper crane tsukumogami

Name: Sadako Hiroshima

Age: Unknown (Appears to be in her early 20s)

Species: Paper Crane Tsukumogami

Magic Abilities:

1. Origami Mastery: Sadako possesses exceptional skills in creating intricate origami crafts, particularly paper cranes. She can fold them with remarkable precision and imbue them with magical properties.

2. Paper Manipulation: As a Paper Crane Tsukumogami, Sadako can control and manipulate paper in various forms. She can shape them into weapons, shields, or even create barriers.

3. Wish Granting: Sadako's paper cranes have the ability to grant wishes to those who fold them correctly, but their power depends on the purity of the requester's intentions.

Personality:

Sadako is a gentle and compassionate Tsukumogami who often exudes a warm and soothing aura. She is known for her empathetic nature, always willing to listen to others and offer comfort. Despite her somber appearance, Sadako has a gentle sense of humor and enjoys making people happy. She is deeply devoted to her craft and takes great pride in her origami skills.

Occupation:

Sadako's origins can be traced back to a small village in Gensokyo, where she was once a regular paper crane. When she reached the end of her traditional lifespan, her spirit merged with residual magic, evolving her into a Tsukumogami. Following her transformation, Sadako decided to use her paper manipulation abilities and origami mastery to help others. She became a renowned creator of magical paper cranes, fulfilling wishes for those in need.

Title: Maker of a Thousand Cranes

Sadako earned this title due to her remarkable origami skills and her commitment to granting wishes through her creations. It is said that her paper cranes carry great fortune and blessings. Many individuals seeking guidance, healing, or good fortune often seek her out in hopes of receiving one of her mystical paper cranes.

Theme Song: "Paper Crane Princess"

Sadako's theme song reflects her delicate nature and the magic infused in her craft. It features ethereal melodies accompanied by soft instrumental sounds, evoking a sense of tranquility and bliss. The song encapsulates the essence of Sadako's role as the Maker of Thousand Cranes and her desire to spread joy through her magical origami creations.

Origin and Backstory:

Sadako Hiroshima's origin is rooted in the tragic real-life story of Sadako Sasaki, a young girl affected by the aftermath of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. In this version, Sadako Sasaki's spirit becomes tangled with residual magic, transforming her into a Tsukumogami - a Paper Crane Tsukumogami.

Sadako lived in Hiroshima, a city that was devastatingly struck by an atomic bomb during World War II. Although she was only a young child at the time, Sadako survived the initial blast but was exposed to the radiation's long-lasting effects. Years later, she fell gravely ill due to leukemia, known as the "atomic bomb disease." During her time in the hospital, Sadako learned about the ancient legend that folding a thousand origami cranes would grant a wish. Desperate for a cure and inspired by the story, she began folding paper cranes with the hopes of healing herself. Each fold represented a wish, not only for her own recovery but for the well-being of others around her. Tragically, Sadako's condition worsened, and despite her determination and countless cranes folded, she passed away at a young age. Yet her spirit, infused with the lingering magic of Gensokyo, transformed into a Tsukumogami - a Paper Crane Tsukumogami named Sadako Hiroshima. This new incarnation of Sadako Sasaki carried with her the memories of the atomic bomb's devastating impact, as well as the strength and pure intentions she held during her short life. Transforming into a Tsukumogami allowed Sadako to continue her unfinished mission of spreading hope, healing, and fulfilling the wishes of those in need.

Drawing from her experiences and the desire to alleviate suffering, Sadako Hiroshima dedicated herself to becoming the Maker of Thousand Cranes. She uses her magical abilities to fashion delicate paper cranes, imbued with both her own sorrow and unwavering determination to grant wishes and bring solace to those who seek her out. Sadako Hiroshima's tragic backstory serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring spirit of hope and resilience, echoing the real-life story of Sadako Sasaki. In her new form as a Paper Crane Tsukumogami, Sadako Hiroshima continues to carry the legacy of her creator, always reaching out with compassion to help others, just as she did in her previous human life.She also has an old friend who she met long ago, she was a humble paper crane, brought to life by the love and care of a young girl named Sakura. Sakura had a deep affinity for origami and spent countless hours folding intricate paper cranes, each filled with her hopes and dreams. Tragedy struck when the village was attacked by a malevolent yokai, leaving destruction and despair in its wake. Sakura, being a kind-hearted girl, bravely tried to protect her loved ones, but she fell victim to the yokai's relentless assault. As she lay on the verge of death, she whispered her final wish – for her beloved paper crane, Sadako, to be safe and bring joy to those she left behind. Her wish resonated with the latent magic within Sadako, granting her sentience and the ability to transcend her physical form. Bereft of Sakura's presence, Sadako developed a somber and introspective disposition, haunted by the tragic events that had befallen her creator. Determined to fulfill the unspoken desires and dreams of those who suffered, she embraced her role as the Maker of Thousand Cranes. Every origami creation she crafted held a prayer, a wish, or a longing, infusing them with a fraction of her own sorrow and determination. Sadako channeled her grief into every fold and crease, creating the most intricate and powerful paper cranes imaginable. They became beacons of hope, solace, and healing, carrying the weight of her tragic past. While Sadako's story is tinged with sorrow, her journey also encompasses resilience and an unwavering dedication to bringing joy to others. She seeks to honor Sakura's memory by using her magical abilities to ease the pain of those who have suffered, ensuring that no one else has to endure the tragedy she experienced. Though Sadako carries the weight of her tragic backstory, she remains an embodiment of compassion and strength, seeking solace in bringing happiness to others through her origami creations.

note this character was inspired by the story of Sadako and the thousand paper cranes.

Do you have any shoujo manga recommendations? I recently read Sasaki and Miyato and realised that I have been severly missing out!

Sure!! Thanks for asking me!

First, in case you haven't read it yet, Sasaki and Miyano has a spinoff that starts six months before the plot of Sasaki and Miyano called Hirano and Kagiura also by Shou Harusono.

This one focuses on Sasaki's friend, Hirano and his new dormmate, Kagiura. I know Sasaki had extra stories with them but the spinoff gave them an actual story. It currently has about 23 chapters and a light novel with the light novel being the first thing that happens chronologically. No anime for it as far as I know. The back of the first volume has a timeline of where events fit (this came out when Sasaki was up to Volume 5)

Speaking of novels, Sasaki and Miyano has two novels, one focusing on the characters' first year and one on their second year. I haven't read them yet so I'm not sure what exactly happens in them but if you can, check them out!

OK, now for other recs!

Wotakoi: Love Is Hard For Otaku by Fujita

This one is really cute! An office worker and otaku named Narumi Momose got dumped by her boyfriend when she got outed as one. Feeling awkward about running into him at work after the bad breakup, she quit her job and got a new one at a different company. This time, she's determined to keep her secret under wraps as to avoid another incident. However, this may prove to be hard when she finds out her childhood friend and fellow otaku Hirotaka Nifuji works at the company and almost outs her on her first day. She meets up with him after work to catch up and when Narumi tells him about her recent breakup, he asks her why not date an otaku. Specifically him. She rejects it at first but when he says he can help her in life, video games and with her booth at Comiket, she agrees.

There are three couples this series focuses on. The second couple knew each other since high school and have been dating for about a decade and work at the company with Narumi and Hirotaka. The third couple is the younger brother of Hirotaka and a gamer who goes to his college. It's a lighthearted comedy about office worker otakus and navigating their relationships. A lot of references to anime, video games, BL, GL, you name it. Like Sasaki, this was a webcomic posted on pixiv so the pacing and layout feel similar, at least to me. There are 11 volumes (6 volumes if you go by the English translation bc they combined two volumes into one for 5 of them and then the last one is by itself). I mainly got into this one bc Hirotaka was aesthetically my type. I remember seeing the first volume cover at kinokuniya when only the Japanese version was out and being like "I need to find out what this series is bc I need to meet him"

Kimi Ni Todoke by Karuho Shiina

This was a series I read when I was in high school. High school freshman Sawako Kuronuma has been feared and misunderstood by her peers all her life due to her appearance. It was so bad that her classmates call her Sadako since she looks like the character from The Ring. She had resigned to her fate of never making a friend until popular boy Kazehaya starts talking to her. The more time he spends talking to her, the more her world opens up and she starts making friends and experience things she hadn't been able to before this point. As they spend more time together, love blossoms between the two characters.

There are 30 volumes and 38 episodes. I read up to volume 18 and then stopped because that was the most recent volume at the time and I kinda forgot about by the time more volumes came out. But that was my fault not the manga because this series is really really cute!! A term I've coined for myself when I read this was whenever Kazehaya and Sawako were being cute together, I'd exclaimed "THESE ADORABLE LITTLE FUCKS!!" because they are so adorable to each other. The friends Sawako makes are really cool and fun in their own right. If you want some really cute, tooth rotting sweetness, I recommend this series.

Princess Jellyfish by Akiko Higashimura

Tsukimi Kurashita is a jellyfish fanatic that lives in Amamizukan, a woman only apartment building that houses other woman with their own fixations. They are considered NEETS and have a strict rule of no men allowed in their living space. Tsukimi's love for jellyfish came from going to a jellyfish aquarium with her mom before she died of an illness when Tsukimi was a kid. She goes to a pet shop regularly to visit a spotted jellyfish she's taken a fancy to that she named Kurara. When she sees that the employees put a moon jellyfish in the same tank, she fears for its life as the moon jellyfish will kill Kurara if not taken care of. However, her fear of talking to normal people lead to a misunderstanding with the employee until a stylish person comes to her rescue and they take Kurara back to Amamizukan. The next morning, Tsukimi finds out the stylish person she brought back to her home is an illegitimate son of a politician and cross-dresser named Kuranosuke Koibuchi.

There are 84 chapters and 11 episodes of this series. I read up to about chapter 74 before stopping for the same reason I did for Kimi Ni Todoke. It's a really fun time. The characters are funny and sweet, the situations are entertaining, it's just a fun o' time. And the art is really pretty!!

Skip and Loafer by Misaki Takamatsu

Mitsumi Iwakura moved from her small town on the outskirt of Ishikawa Prefecture to Tokyo to start high school. However, she gets lost going to school on the first day due to the culture shock and seems at a loss at what to do. That's when she meets Sosuke Shima who was late to school himself and travels with her to school. The series follows Mitsumi as she experiences school life in the city and meets lots of new people and makes friends with Sosuke along for the ride.

There's currently about 59 chapters and 12 episodes of this series. I started reading it when the anime was announced and I had a fun time reading it. I really enjoyed Mitsumi and seeing her learn and broaden her horizons as she goes to school and hang out with Sosuke and everyone else. It's a nice story!

Given by Natsuki Kizu

High school student Uenoyama Ritsuka is a guitarist in a instrumental only band with college students Akihiko Kaji and Haruki Nakayama. When going to his usual hiding spot for lunch, he finds Mafuyu Sato sleeping with a guitar with broken strings in his arms. Uenoyama offers to fix it and when he does and plays a note, Sato begs him to teach him how to play. Uenoyama is reluctant but gives in when Sato persists. After spending some time together, Uenoyama finds out that Sato has a beautiful singing voice and invites him to join his band.

There are 9 volumes, 11 episodes and a movie, with another movie on the way. The series focuses on three relationships. The first is the relationship between Uenoyama and Sato, the second between Akihiko and Haruki and the third between Sato's childhood friends Hiiragi and Shizusumi. The art is really pretty and the characters are so good!! I really enjoyed the story a lot! My favorite character is Hiiragi and I can't wait for the next movie to come out because they're gonna cover his story then and I wanna hear him sing!! (Also his seiyuu is Fumiya Imai AKA seiyuu for Akito Shinonome so double reason why I wanna hear it) Also, Imma use this as an excuse to post a page I really wanna see animated bc I can hear it so clearly in my head.

Bloom Into You by Nakatani Nio

Yuu Koito, lover of shoujo manga, always dreamed of being confessed to and experience that heart pounding feeling she sees happen in her books. However, when she's confessed to by a guy in middle school, she feels nothing and rejects him. Now starting high school, she's left confused on what her lack of feeling means. When she sees the student council president Touko Nanami turn down a boy, she asks her for help with her situation. But when Nanami confesses her love to Koito, will she feel that spark she's being hoping for? There's 8 volumes, 13 episodes and 3 light novels starring a side character. I'm up to volume 6 of this one and I'm really enjoying it!! The story is engaging, the charatcers are interesting. I like that Yuu isn't a pushover, she's a bit snarky and doesn't let Touko push her around. And I like how Touko comes off as a competent student council president but she has a more vulnerable side that she only shows Yuu. They pair nicely with each other.

Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun by Izumi Tsubaki

OK I know you know this one already but this wouldn't be a rec list made by me if I didn't include it. This is my favorite series ever. It's mecore. Me-coded. Me. Second year high schooler Chiyo Sakura finally gets the courage to confess her love to Umetarou Nozaki, a guy in her grade. However, she messes up the confession and says she's his biggest fan instead of "I like you". Nozaki, in response, gives her his autograph and then invites her to his house. She accepts but once they get there, he has her do inking on a manga he makes. Turns out, Nozaki is a manga artist under the pen name Sakiko Yumeno and he's had his eye on Sakura for a while because he wanted to bring her onto his team as an inker. She agrees to join so she can get closer to him.

There's currently 14 volumes, 12 episodes and an OVA split into six 5-mintue parts. This series has me dying of laughter with every chapter. The characters are fun, the story is fun, it's just a fun time! There are three main couples with some side couples and duos that get their own time in the spotlight as well. The main ones are Sakura and Nozaki, Sakura's friend Yuzuki Seo and Nozaki's screentone assistant and first year Hirotaka Wakamatsu, and Nozaki's background artist and third year theater club president Masayuki Hori and "Prince of the Drama Club" Yuu Kashima. Other characters like Mikoto "Mikorin" Mikoshiba, Mayu Nozaki, Yukari Miyako, Ken Miyamae, and Mitsuya Maeno all bring their own brand of fun to the table. This series made me laugh so much I couldn't read it in class to slack off because I'd laugh out loud and disrupt class. I've yet to read another series that made me do that. I cannot recommend this series enough. Please read AND watch it if you have not already. Nozaki is starting to gain awarness. I lose my mind whenever I see it happen. I wanna see it happen. It's been 13 years!

Imma put an honorable mention here because I haven't read or watch it yet but I've heard Horimiya written by HERO and illustrated by Daisuke Hagiwara is really good. I wanted to but just haven't gotten around to it yet.

That's all I have for right now! If you've already read/watched all of these already, lmk and I'll list some more!! Hope you enjoy! ^_^

#prince's ask tag #i might have lost the plot a bit but hopefully this was helpful lolol
