After experiencing an "embarrassing" episode in the morning, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also dressed neatly and walked out of the guest room.

As soon as he arrived in the living room, he saw Yui Aragaki standing in front of the large mirror in the living room, trying on a white and flawless white "furisode" kimono with the help of his two older sisters.

This set of "vibration sleeve" kimono, Sakamoto Kiyoshi looks very familiar.

This is obviously the kimono that Yui Aragaki showed him a few months ago, custom-made for the coming-of-age ceremony!

At this time, Sakamoto Kiyoshi, as an outsider, was just standing aside, feeling a little constrained, and didn't know what he should do.

Suddenly, Haruka Aragaki also saw it, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi, who was standing on the side, was not polite, and directly shouted, "Sakamoto-kun, can you come over and help?"

"Huh?"

Sakamoto Kiyoshi was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

"Oh, okay!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who came to the side of the three daughters of Aragaki, didn't know how to help, so he could only look at Yui Aragaki with a look of help.

Aragaki Yui also glanced at him shyly, and then looked away.

"No, you can bring the "Obiyan" on the sofa... ”

"Oh, okay... "Although I don't know much about the structure of "Zhensleeve", I don't know which one to follow, but Sakamoto Kiyoshi is not stupid.

Long before coming to Okinawa, he asked his mother about the coming-of-age ceremony.

Of course, the knowledge of "Zhensleeve" is also to understand some.

It is precisely because of this that he did not mistake the "belt" as "belt" and handed it to Aragaki Haruka. . .

As a type of women's kimono, there are three types of kimonos, depending on the length of the sleeves.

Large vibration sleeves, medium vibration sleeves, and small vibration sleeves.

And Aragaki Yui's set of "vibration sleeves" belongs to the middle vibration sleeves.

In fact, it is generally called "Zhensleeve", which is mostly used for New Year's and coming-of-age ceremonies, and unmarried women attending formal occasions.

And the just right sleeve length, against the backdrop of Yui Aragaki's slender figure, looks even more beautiful and charming.

Standing quietly in front of the mirror, his shy appearance was completely different from the way he pulled Sakamoto's quilt and told him to get up just now.

This made Sakamoto Kiyoshi a little shaken, a little confused, in the end, the arrogant and trembling Okinawan giantess just now, or the giant Lori who was blushing and shyly looking at him, was Yui Aragaki Yui?

This is a bit confusing.

Suddenly, Yui Aragaki looked through the mirror and noticed his stupid appearance, and she couldn't help but smile.

It was this casual smile that made Kiyoshi Sakamoto have an epiphany in an instant.

"No matter what it looks like, it's the Aragaki Yui I like!"

After figuring it out, the corners of his mouth also rose...

。。。

After changing into a kimono at home, you should definitely come and take a photo of this memorable moment.

"Click!"

It just so happened that Kiyoshi Sakamoto, as a photographer, took a serious family photo of Yui Aragaki and her family.

Then, Kiyoshi Sakamoto also took a commemorative photo with Yui Aragaki in a kimono.

The two of them got together cutely and put up scissor hands.

The two of them looked like a match, and Aragaki's parents who were sitting on the sofa couldn't help but smile at each other.

"It seems that our daughter has already had someone she likes... ”

"Yes. ”

The process of the local coming-of-age ceremony in Okinawa is like this.

As early as a month ago, the relevant departments would send postcards to each family, informing them of the location and time of the coming-of-age ceremony, precautions, etc.

Then, on the day of Coming-of-Age Day, young people dressed up in costumes, accompanied by family and friends, bring postcards and arrive at the venue of the coming-of-age ceremony at the specified time.

This year's Okinawa Naha Coming-of-Age Festival was held at the City Hall in Naha City, Okinawa.

Because he was afraid that Sakamoto Kiyoshi would be recognized, Sakamoto Kiyoshi still wore a mask and hat when he followed the Aragaki family to the city government.

This appearance also made Aragaki Yui smile and say, "It's like an artist's assistant... ”

Sakamoto Kiyoshi didn't care either, but made a European aristocratic salute to Aragaki Yui, and said seriously.

"Please come with me, my princess... ”

This move also made the three Aragaki sisters laugh.

While talking and laughing, everyone also came to the venue.

Then, the ceremony officially began...

At the beginning of the ceremony, it was no different from the entrance ceremony of Tokyo University that Kiyoshi Sakamoto had experienced.

It was the mayor and the leaders of various relevant departments who gave a wave of balabala-bara speeches, on the one hand, to congratulate them, and on the other hand, to place high hopes on these "new adults".

Then, the young people swore an oath loudly, indicating that they would officially step into the ranks of adults from today onwards.

After the speeches of the leaders, it was followed by the popular program performances and group activities.

And Kiyoshi Sakamoto was finally able to see the performance of Okinawa's local colors.

Shamisen show!

Even though Kiyoshi Sakamoto is an all-round musical genius who is proficient in various instruments such as piano, guitar, bass, and violin, he has never learned the shamisen, which is a regional instrument.

Almost everywhere in Okinawa, you can see folk artists playing the shamisen and singing "babbling silly".

Shamisen, which originated in the Chinese shamisen.

However, Okinawa's San-line can be said to be a musical instrument with local characteristics.

When it comes to the most famous musicians from Okinawa, it is the folk group Begin.

Begin is a music group with all members from Okinawa who debuted in 1990 with an advertising song.

Two of their most well-known songs are the famous song "あふれる涙" released in 1992 and "三线の花" released in 2006.

In particular, "あふれる涙", this song, can be called a masterpiece of Okinawan songs.

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto liked their song "Sanline の花" even more.

Because, in "Sansin Hana", the musical instrument that runs through the whole song is the characteristic instrument of Okinawa, the shamisen.

The playing of the shamisen runs through the whole song, making the whole song sound more comfortable and moving, and compared to "あふれる涙", "Sanxian Hana" makes people feel more courageous and tired after listening to it.

It is also more able to represent the hot emotions of the people of Okinawa...

It is also because of the song "Sanline Flower" that Kiyoshi Sakamoto has a great interest in the simple instrument of the shamisen.

And what surprised him was that the performance on the stage and the repertoire played happened to be "Three Lines of Flowers".

This undoubtedly made Sakamoto Kiyoshi, who was sitting in the audience, gain an unexpected surprise.

"Hmmm... The shamisen is really a magical instrument... ”

Listening to the performance on stage, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, who closed his eyes, also came up with the idea of using the shamisen as the main instrument to create a song...

Soon, this coming-of-age ceremony with Okinawan characteristics came to an end with the loud cheers of the young people who had entered the ranks of adults...

For the rest of the day, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was just a spectator, holding a camera, in the venue, and kept filming.

Under his lens, these people who have just stepped into adulthood are doing all kinds of things that make people laugh.

The girls, at the first time, just got together and took a selfie.

Of course, such a memorable day must be recorded forever with photos.

Generally speaking, on this day, Instagram, Titter, and SNS are full of photos related to the coming-of-age ceremony.

The girls take selfies, but what about the boys?

Kiyoshi Sakamoto found a very strange buddy.

In fact, at the beginning of the ceremony, he noticed him.

This is a ****** and polite school-like boy.

It stands to reason that such a boy, even if it is a coming-of-age ceremony, will not do something very irrational.

After all, on the surface, this is a nerd...

However, people can't be disguised, and Sakamoto Kiyoshi didn't really understand the meaning of the word until he saw this buddy's actions.

At the moment of the coming-of-age ceremony, this top student took out a big Japanese sake from his backpack, and it was Kubota's Biju sake!

This is a representative Japanese sake in Niigata, which is famous for its many sake breweries, and it is loved by men, women and children.

On the other hand, the taste of Biju is mellow, and the sake feels lighter when it passes through the throat, so it is a Junmai Daiginjo sake brew.

The alcohol content of this Japanese sake is not very high, only 15 degrees.

However, this buddy opened the lid of the wine bottle with an expressionless face and poured it directly into his throat, this amazing move directly frightened Sakamoto Kiyoshi dumbfounded.

While being surprised, he didn't forget to take a picture of this contrasting scene, Sakamoto Kiyoshi felt that this photo, if it was seen by Masaharu Fukuyama, would definitely be very envious.

After all, the joy of photography lies in photographing scenes that are usually difficult to photograph, as well as inadvertently fleeting scenes...

This is what Kiyoshi Sakamoto heard every day after he studied photography with Masaharu Fukuyama.

Looking at the precious photos in the camera, Sakamoto Kiyoshi also nodded with satisfaction and muttered, "It's okay, I took the camera over... ”

In the next half hour, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's camera added several other interesting materials in addition to the contrasting photos of this buddy drinking as soon as he became an adult.

A boy who smoked for the first time, a funny scene of choking on the smoke of a cigarette...

When the girls were eating the buffet in the coming-of-age ceremony, they also put napkins on themselves so as not to stain their beautiful kimonos. . . .

These scenes can only be seen at the coming-of-age ceremony.

Sakamoto Kiyoshi who realized this,Forced to dedicate half of the film in his camera.。。。

And the remaining half was specially left by him for Aragaki Yui.

Just when he was thinking about this, Yui Aragaki, who was eating a buffet with his family on the side, seemed to have accepted the thoughts from Sakamoto Kiyoshi, and began to look for Sakamoto Kiyoshi around.

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's outfit is particularly conspicuous among the kimonos and suits.

"Qingjun!"

A shout made Sakamoto Kiyoshi's gaze, in the air, meet with Aragaki Yui's gaze...
