Impetigo When On A Cruise

"maison ikkoku-casa ikkoku"


The love story between Kyoko and Godai is the thread of the story in 96 memorable episodes. We could never forget the passionate declaration of Godai, a phobia of Mitaka, the endless party of Akemi, Yotsuya and Ichinose, and even the insistent demands of Yagami. In each episode, we were also provided every detail, from the regular train whistle at the cherry blossom in spring and ending with the various traditional festivals in Japan. Never before Maison Ikkoku a "cartoon" had provoked in the audience emotions so deep and the credit goes to the author who was able to mix perfectly the feelings of the characters and the many striking images of a culture so far removed from what we know. Despite the many misunderstandings that naturally arise is difficult to resist the charm of the Japanese world, especially thinking back to the traditional marriage between the sweet Kyoko and Godai insecure. In this gigantic "container" of situations is to be located an old Japanese house located in a hilly area on the outskirts of Tokyo: the Masioni Ikkoku. This is the place where you perform various events that have made so indisputable success of the series. To do this you can do a number observations about the real concept "architecture" of the house Ikkoku.
Assuming that the majority of Japanese do not live in a small room such as Godai, we can distinguish three main categories of abitazione.La most of the population lives in apartments, condominiums, equipped with every comfort and built to the western style. In this type of housing are such Kozue.Altri Mitaka and instead have the chance to stay in traditional houses in which the key feature is the simplicity and the flexibility of interior space, as in the case of Azuki and old Mr. Otonashi. A third category of citizens, such as Kyoko Yagami and parents, live in homes che si possono considerare una via di mezzo tra i due casi precedenti. Così il modello occidentale, tanto affezionato allo spazio cucina e al divano viene a fondersi con quello giapponese fatto di pannelli scorrevoli e spazi particolari quali ad esempio quello dove togliersi le scarpe.A questo punto sorge spontanea una domanda: tra quale di queste categorie si colloca casa Ikkoku ?? In nessuna delle tre !! La Maison Ikkoku non è una sola abitazione o un insieme di appartamenti indipendenti l'uno dall'altro ma è una serie di alloggi che interagiscono fra loro costituendo una pensione. E'stata costruita parecchio tempo fa, ma risulta comunque essere assai diversa dalle abitazioni dei genitori di Kyoko, di Mitaka o del vecchio Otonashi.......è semplicemente Maison Ikkoku.
Based on the evidence provided by the animated series, it is possible to trace the plan of the house even though some differences between the two sets do not make it a simple task. Because you have only the base unit, it was possible, thanks to the accuracy of Takahashi, reconstruct the various spaces and their dimensions. The basic unit is the Tatami or a carpet made of a wooden measuring 180x90 cm (ie 1.62 m) and is the basis dell'archittetura traditional giapponese.La Godai's room has a floor consisting of 6 tatami mats arranged to obtain a size of 270 cm in width and 360 in length (excluding wardrobe). Slightly larger Kyoko size from 8 to basic elements that give rise to a square room. The combination of rooms and 6 on the first paino 4.5 and 1.2 and 3 storey, determine the length of the corridor and stairs, the bathroom sinks or deal sizes ranging between 90 and 180 as well as a cm.Ma using purely dimensional characteristics of the mat has a practical easily seen in the many actions taken by the inhabitants of the house Ikkoku. Godai and the others live at home in close contact with the floor at all hours of the day is when they gather to celebrate knelt around a table and when they addormaentano the center of the room protected by a heavy blanket. In this environment takes on the tatami a dual function furniture Replacement, essentially, to the chair and the bed. This furniture, which are fundamental in western culture, are absent in the house Ikkoku (except for the soft bed of Akemi) and thus enable the occupants to practice any activity in the small space offered by their stanza.Ultimo important aspect pointed out in the house Ikkoku, and consequently , in Japanese culture is the flexibility of space, namely the transformation of the accommodation between day and night. In the famous No. 5 room (furnished with a bookcase, a desk, a wardrobe, a kitchen table and group), just a simple gesture to change the living room to the bedroom: Godai goes the table in a corner of the room, the closet Estare the blanket and lies down on the floor-tatami.Questi simple movements contain part of the culture of Japan, can also communicate the charm of a traditional world and the different lifestyles of the Japanese people . Westerners have these knowledges to the skill of Rumiko Takahashi and his fantastic series Maison Ikkoku - Kyoko Dear sweet ........
