Just normal spoken Welsh for what was portrayed throughout the movie as the language of these "monstrous" people.

I can see why as someone who actually knows how the tea ceremony is supposed to be that this rendition would take you out of the story. It seems to me like the two characters were kids playing make believe on the ceremony w/o knowing the full ritual. The girl is young, would she know the full ritual? Or would she just know certain parts, and wanted to do something nice for her gaijin boyfriend without knowing all the ritual.

I like to think that maybe what we're seeing in this scene is a young girl from a POOR Okinawan village who's not FORMALLY trained but had seen tea ceremony many times. She's in love and, though she's not trained, she wants to do something nice for him and she knows he, as a foreigner, won't know the subtle issues in how she performs this tradition. These movies do similar things with the martial arts featured in them...there is a lot that accurate and a lot that isn't as well. For instance, the REAL Miyagi, was the founder of Goju-Ryu but, the practitioners in th movies and shows do not adhere to that style.

Although you can say that the scene was filmed by Americans and thus is not authentically written, could any Japanese citizen see the scene as two teenagers having fun? Cause there are a lot of hints where Kimiko was anxious and thus was not accurate to the ceremony’s usual practice. And Daniel was confused but then putts together the pieces once the supposed ceremony was over. I learned a lot of stuff from this video. But I have to know whether or not it was the righters choice to make the scene more charming, Or if it’s just a mistake on the director’s behalf.

I was thinking something similar. She's just a kid in story. In a small town in Okinawa. I'd almost call it a backwater type place. Of course, it was also harder for a low medium budget movie filmed in the US, almost 30+ years ago. But I wonder if the average Japanese person would have noticed that much. There's probably other reasons why it's reviewed so low.

It's a hollywood production, so as a westerner I didn't expect full accuracy. That said, it's an endearing and intriguing scene in the film. Even if done incorrectly, it shows the viewer that the procedure seems to be very deliberate, and I remember that it made me curious about actual tea ceremonies back when I saw it first time as a child. So, I think there's some merit to it, despite glaring misunderstandings. If the end result makes the viewer fascinated and interested to learn more, then that's a win, right? 😊

I always saw this part of the movie as, the village was basically being overrun by the military base and corporation the older protagonist ran and they were losing their traditions and memories of them, i.e. the dancing, location of the festival, and smaller traditions such as the tea ceremony. So I think she was learning from an elder who may have lost some of the traditions as well while training her, but that's just my interpretation.

A while ago, I saw another video talking about misconceptions of Japanese culture, and the discussion came up about how a lot of us westerners have the impression that it's polite to slurp your ramen because it shows appreciation to the chef. The person making the video was Japanese and had never heard of it, and they weren't sure where it came from--if Japanese people slurp their ramen it's more to aerate the broth in your mouth, they said. But watching this video, I'm wondering if perhaps the ramen misconception was carried over from the tea ceremony, where it seems like it IS polite to make a slurping noise with the tea to show appreciation--just like the ramen thing. Even if I'm off with my guess here, it was so interesting to watch this video and I learned a lot!!

Awsome, I love this movie, to me it is almost as important as „Shogun“ the Mini series based on James Clavel‘s novel. It is amazing how much thought goes into the simple act of pouring hot water into the bowl. A Sensei once told me not to pour the water on top of the matcha because „no one likes boiling water poured on top of your head“ and rather let the water run along the chasenzure so it circles around the matcha in the middle and soaks it from below. Also I heard it will additionally cool the water by a few degrees so it is not too hot to destroy the taste.

Daniel questioned KOmiko about whether or not if she was arranged for a potential marriage but Komiko admitted it was an old custom in Okinawa to the Tea Ceramoney was a representation of them falling in love and probably much more behind closed doors... also their village was a poor fishing village and that shack was literally just aluminum siding and roof. attached to a wood flooring foundation.

I think it's natural and to be expected that there will be elements of KK2 that will be unpopular in Japan.

There’s something though, she probably had *some* training but of course as you live your life (furthermore outside of Japan) you can’t be perfect, plus they’re on a film set, with directors asking them to act a certain way. Some productions will have a specialist to advise about traditional elements of the scene but 2 things here I want to say : first, the producers of the movie don’t always listen to the advice of their specialist… secondly, let’s be honest, there’s a *ton* of gate keeping with tea ceremony culture… maybe Urasenke or Dainihonsadougakkai are more open about sharing their knowledge, but in general, you’re only taught something - and not just specific temae, simple knowledge or details - only if you actually join a (expensive) regular okeiko…. If the person on set didn’t spent 10-20 years of their life studying the subject, they might look for information on the internet and guess what, there’s almost nothing, especially if you can’t read Japanese fluently (translations are wack…) and you don’t know what you’re looking for… That’s why your channel is great by the way 👍✨

Am guessing the tea might have been substituted before he drank from the bowl.

I would bet that most of the pottery is handmade and has multiple uses. As someone who has witnessed an actual tea ceremony, I would say that it seems overly complicated. But then again, I didn't grow up with that culture and all that it means. I prefer this more casual way of doing it. I'm sorry if that could be considered insulting to the culture.

For us that live here in Japan watching that movie was hilarious at best and painful at worse.

My sensei when I learned tea ceremony is just as serious as my other sensei in teaching martial arts. Both of them have high regard for precise rituals. ⛩️🙏

Aw I remember this scene Shogo! It was one of my favorites because of her fínese in prepping a cup of tea. I usually heat water and toss a bag in - done! 😆

Do you have a review of the Shogun mini series? I coulndt find it. Really wanted to hear your thoughts, as its one of my favorite series about historical Japanese culture.
