Inspired by the 7 virtues of Bushidō presented by Nitobe Inazô, the artists of Shogun's Castle propose to add an eighth to make up an album with an evocative title: " The 8 noble virtues of the samurai ". Here's the list :
. uprightness (義, gi, which can also be translated as "rectitude" or "rigor"),
. courage (勇, yū),
. benevolence (仁, jin, which can also be translated as "greatness of soul", "compassion" or "generosity"),
. politeness (礼, rei, corresponding to the etiquette that appeared in France at the same time, or more generally, respect),
. sincerity (誠, makoto, or "honesty"),
. honor (名誉, meiyō),
. loyalty (忠義, chūgi),
And the eighth, self-control (自制心, jiseishin).
In a Dungeon Synth / Ambient style, journey through these eight virtues that time has not altered.
