2017 Girls High school Calligraphy Competition.

They are 1st grade of MISHIMA high school.

I didn't know that exist a competion about this ....
It must be very difficult.

Do you find the motion of the buckets just before the placing the brushes on the paper ?

yeah I noticed it ... it's a sort of rithm right ? is to help :confused:.... I mean is it helpful to the girls doing it ... is not just something coreographic right ?
Anyway I was enchanting by their ability, they are really skilled .

They control the ink drops fallen from the brushes by that motion.

I see. Anyway it was really nice to see.

I have a question regarding some calligraphy (if you don't mind).

My boss asked me to find this bottle of sake he had in Japan. I'm unable to decipher the characters from the calligraphy.

If anyone could help or give me the standard kanji characters, I'd be very grateful!
