{two at the same time} Nice to meet you. |
![]() |
You were singing in harmony. (^^♪ |
![]() ![]() |
Okay, then!! |
![]() |
You two make a wonderful harmony.♪ |
![]() ![]() |
To tell you the truth, we can't see each other back to back, so we decided to talk in the dressing room to meet with just the voice. ~ (^ _-)-☆ |
![]() |
I see. |

Then from me. ^ _ ^
甲骨文字(Oracle Bone Script (About 3,300 years ago))
金文(Bronze Script (About 2,900 years ago))
After verious eras, I became ‘從’, the old character form of ‘従’.
旧字体(Old Character Form (About 1,500 years ago))
Take a good look. You can see '从' (Jyu) in the upper right, can't you? |
![]() |
Yes, I can see it!! |
![]() |
And my old character form is made up with 彳(Gyo-ninben) and 止 and 从.
彳+止+从
If you combine only Kanji characters of 彳(Gyo-ninben) and 止, it becomes 辵(Chaku), one of the radicals of Kanji.
小篆(Shoten(About 2, 200 years ago))
I think another Kanji will talk about this “辵(Chaku)” later in detail, but “辵” will become “辶(Shinnyo)” and become a Kanji that means going the road. |

You were born from following a person at first. I see!! |

I am 比"Compare" in the form of two 人"Person" who are facing the right, which is the opposite direction of 従"Obey". |
![]() |
What does it mean if you face right? |
![]() |
In case of 従"Obey"... |
![]() |
It reminds me the lyrics for "Only one flower in the world". |
![]() |
I know that song too. It's a SMAP's song. |

If you compare too much, it will lead to bullying, fighting and war. |
![]() |
That's right. It is wonderful to improve by comparing in a good way to others. |
![]() |
What is it?? |
![]() |
Even when you are compared, it's better to focus on yourself as "own axis" rather than focusing "other person's axis" on themselves. |
![]() |
Seems difficult... |
![]() |
So, shall I tell you the magic words? |
![]() |
Well, I think "How should I do?" or "What should I do?". |
![]() |
That's exactly what I wanted to hear. (^ _ -) - ☆ |
![]() |
Exactly!! |
![]() |
Oops, you said "should" again. |
![]() |
"(-""-)" |
![]() |
Why don't you speak to yourself? |
![]() |
Good words. |
![]() |
That's right. |
![]() |
Oh, sure. |
![]() |
By the way, what does 平和"Peace" mean for you, Toshu-san? |
![]() |
It means there will be a lot of laughter and gratitude. |
![]() |
It's very important to laugh a lot and to appreciate many things. |
![]() |
That's true. |
![]() |
{in a hurry} Toshu-sensei!! |
![]() |
What happened, Leciel? |
![]() |
It's almost time to return to our real world, Bow-Wow! ! |
![]() |
Oh, it's already been so long. |
![]() ![]() |
{At the same time} Of course. Our schedule is completely vacant. (^^ ♪ |
![]() |
Thank you. |
![]() |
Toshu-sensei, please hurry up. |
![]() |
Wait, Leciel.
