Tokyo, Adachi-ku, Tokyo Budokan.

It is a diamond-shaped building in the early Heisei years, and it has the same purpose as the Shimakoku Budokan in Chiyoda Ward, and it is intended to be used by the public in order to inherit the traditional martial arts that have been practiced since ancient times.

It stands to reason that after the Shimakoku Budokan in Chiyoda, the construction of a Tokyo Budokan would give people the feeling that the Education Agency is stupid.

However, it was planned to be built at the height of the bubble economy in the island country, and a small place like Adachi Ward was full of pompous atmosphere, so we must have our own culture instead of being a town in Tokyo all the time!

Probably with this in mind, the Tokyo Budokan began planning in the late 80s and was built in time for the 90s.

However, in the second year after its completion, the Osaka Osaka Upper Seam Incident broke out in the island country, and the Osaka aunt who could not read a single big character and could only do additions could borrow 2.7 trillion (trillion) yen from the bank...... The crumbling national bubble burst in an instant.

The island country budokan has been basically reduced to the nature of the 'Tokyo Dome', but it does not have the simplicity of this legacy, and many formal kendo competitions in the island country are actually held in Adachi Ward.

This Tokyo Budokan is a legacy of the pompous era left to Adachi Ward.

"It's the team of Kokushikan High School, over there is Yubunkan, and there are metropolitan green plums."

"It's all a strong school in kendo."

"Don't just look at Tokyo, this is not the previous Tokyo regional trials, and there are strong schools in the surrounding counties!"

Outside the Budokan Hall, kendo teams from more than 100 high schools rushed in.

The principals all have the attitude of having dates and no dates, and they are all talking about the good.

Not to mention, this year's competition really favors weak schools, the qualifiers for the kendo conference of colleges and universities just ended yesterday, and the contestants of strong schools are still being adjusted.

Maybe! You can really pick up the leaks!

NHK's crew recorded the event program in the venue, and there were few spectators of inter-student kendo competitions like last year.

Just like the Tokyo Qualifiers for the National College Kendo Tournament that ended yesterday at Hachioji, few people cared about it at all.

During the national kendo competition, newspapers and news will report it a little, and it is conceivable that the snub of kendo before Chao Extraordinary is conceivable.

After all, in this country, the whole country pays attention to baseball, and that is the men's sport.

However, after the intensive advertising bombardment, the current Tokyo Student Martial Arts Conference is now receiving a lot of attention, and it has been on the hot spot of search engines several times.

"Shoot over there, it's the now popular Jennis idol, oh, there's that, isn't that Yuki Shirata!"

"Are you a pig as a photographer? Shoot what that old man does. ”

"Smack!"

The team leader slapped the photographer on the head.

The photographer innocently scratched the head that was slapped: "But that old man is a famous kendo master." ”

For today's hard-won outdoor recording, he memorized the information of the kendo master!

The old man in the kendo uniform really has a bit of the taste of fairy wind bones.

"Will he be able to wave? Does it emit sword aura? Will it suddenly burst into a transformer? ”

"If he doesn't, you'll be honest about shooting those public stars."

"No matter how the times change, the people still like pacifier music!"

"Pigs! If you don't focus on the key points like this, I'll report to your superiors and let you go to logistics to do chores. ”

Yuki Shirata sat in a row of seats on the rostrum, bored watching the battle below.

The large Tokyo Budokan is divided into small fields with white lines, and students engage in quick battles in small rectangular grids.

"Crackle!!"

"Red wins!"

Three-point winning system, three victories will be announced to enter the next round, and the elimination is extremely fast according to the standard of kendo in a few seconds.

This kind of fleeting victory and defeat is actually one of the reasons why it is difficult to attract audiences with weapons such as kendo.

"Nakano High School wins!"

Shirata Yuki is also a scholar elite who entered the Ministry of Public Security and then to the Supernatural Department in the exam, and he also has an understanding of kendo, even if he didn't know before the exam, he also had relevant training after he joined the company.

But the battles on the field are really not fun - no one is against the waves!

Today's kendo competition for high school students is relatively strong, but a few days ago, it was always a junior high school kendo competition, and the students whose bodies have not fully developed are terrible.

Shirata Yuki endured boredom here, and insisted on not playing with his mobile phone with perseverance, but several kendo celebrities on the rostrum next to him couldn't help but look at Shirata Yuki.

Big stars, real people are more ...... than on TV Shorter.

Today's first is the men's team competition, and the teams in the waiting area have different mentalities.

The students of the strong school who often participate in kendo competitions have a look of disdain on their faces, and this kind of unskilled Tokyo area brawl is too boring.

"Hey, compete with these schools...... It's so weak. A high school student with a burrly head said proudly, "Anyway, after a few rounds, it's still a battle between a few of our top schools, but it's just a replay of yesterday's game." ”

"But I've only finished a few games, and I'm still a little tired." The teammate next to him chimed in, "Forget it, it's time to warm up." ”

"If you win this time, you can make headlines, so let's be a little bit more energetic."

"Good, good."

Yubunkan, who just won the first place in the Tokyo Metropolitan Qualifiers for the High School Kendo Tournament, is in full swing, and everyone is proud to see it.

"Don't be careless, don't capsize in the gutter!" The coach of Yuwenkan had a straight face, "This time it is not only our strong schools in Tokyo, but also in other prefectures. ”

"Alright, it's your time to play!"

The coach seemed to be saying what he was saying, but he unabashedly mocked the surrounding school clubs.

It's also a tactic to boost your morale and carry the energy you need to go through the tryouts.

It's just that the other clubs around the circle are suffering, and before they fight, the momentum is cut in half, and the inexperienced weak school has a breath of breath in his stomach, often not PUBG, but bursts like a balloon.

"General, I really want to cut them down."

"They're too blind!"

Mizuno is the striker in the team, the first player to play.

However, with Mizuno's strength, no one will really regard him as a striker, and he is a proper commander in the team, the backbone of everyone!

Acting as a striker is just to get off to a good start and boost morale for everyone.

Tatsuya Haruyama and his brother, a member of the kendo club, were indignant, and when Yubunkan was arrogant, they sat next to him.

"As long as we work hard, we will definitely be able to!"

"Come on, everyone! Let's go back to school with the crown of victory! ”

Such bloody words were not said by Mizuno, but the gray Lu next to him broke out with enthusiasm.

The disparagement of his school did not hit the morale of Gray Lu, on the contrary, the flame of victory burned more and more.

"Yes, there's Boss Mizuno!" Tatsuya Haruyama also hit the snake with the stick, "We still have Gray Lu and Scarlet Village!" ”

"Please come to Adachi Ichiko and prepare for the match against Metropolitan Shinosaki High School on the 35th court."

Principal Tomikawa reached the exit at some point, and looked at the students of Adachi Ichigao who walked out of the waiting area, his eyes full of tears.

I've cultivated leeks for a month, it's time to cut.

"You all have to come on! I've prepared a big meal waiting to congratulate you! ”

"Don't worry, headmaster!"

"No problem, leave it to us!"

"Haha, I'll definitely let the principal have a treat."

"A must!"
