Scout! Coloured Flower Cards, Chapter 1
Oct. 14th, 2017 10:06 pmWriter: Akira
Season: Summer
Characters: Souma Kanzaki, Keito Hasumi, Natsume Sakasaki (and Anzu)
Location: 2-A Classroom
T/L notes:
- Souma and Anzu are playing a card game called 'Koi-Koi' using Hanafuda (wikipedia link)
- By becoming the 'oya' (parent/dealer), Souma is gaining the 'lead' (winning in terms of the flow of the game)
- Souma's 'lessons' (keikogoto) refer to the traditional arts such as tea ceremonies, flower arrangements, dance, music etc.
- The title for the stories are "Asaki Yume Mishi", which is a line in the Iroha poem (wikipedia link). I cut the title short to just 'Superficial Dreaming' but the full meaning is "throughout my life, I've been having superficial dreams" [and continuing with the poem, "thus I shall not be deluded any longer"]
