Oh dear. The sign is all that remains of the warrior’s dreams. No more the kick inside from a bit of armour cosplay, so the exhibition of an armour wasn’t even an alternative to a few drinks. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c6UEHhgSHA)
There was a couple sat just there when we walked past it last time we were in Tokyo, (that was when I got lost and had to phone a certain someone to come find us :-)). The girl leaned gently into the guy who was staring into infinity through the passers by.
The song that sprang to mind then, and again with your photograph today, goes
I am your butterfly
I need your protection
Be my samurai
Yolanda’s vocal range isn’t quite that of Kate Bush though 🙂

Brilliant!! Gave me a much needed laugh this morning. Great find again 😊
Lee says
Thank you. Very glad it did the trick!
Stephan says
Great shot. They sure chose the perfect spot to sleep!
Lee says
Cheers! They really did. Couldn’t have asked for a better set up.

Armour is temporarily unavailable?
Lee says
Not temporarily, but permanently. The sign is now all that’s left of the museum that once housed it..

Sadly not, and worse, they’ll have likely felt as though they’d been kicked inside (and out) when they woke up.
Bernadette Siobhan Loftus says
Rather than 48 Ronin, you’ve captured 2 Ronin. I wonder if their tales are as fascinating as the famous 48.
Lee says
It was clearly a big night out, so providing they can remember it, I’m sure they’ll have some stories to tell.

Ah, that day! Still, you got to see the couple sat there. Definitely worth the detour.
The vocal range may not be there, but the lyrical content couldn’t have fitted any better.
