it so happened that the pre2ious generations "adan&i had played oka and the case of Ten?ichibo, in which -andoHikosabur +played the role of >oka Tadasuke and #an&aku played the roles of "irMito Mitsukuni and Ikeda %aisuke. @ater on in others like this it so happened thatthe other actor was also clearly e0clusi2ely the protagonist alongside #an&aku.#an&aku was identified with and was skilful in maintaining the spirit and knowledgeof old style drama. He was reunited with Hikosabur at the occasion of aperformance of the Moritsuna Ainya act of the play "en&in Bakata. -aigyokuCtaemons form was e0cellent and with -anhiko )-and Hikosabur, the feeling wasof an apprentice being taught. I heard that they tremendously popular. To honour him

on the occasion of his return to >saka there was a farewell performance programmeat the "hintomiza Theatre. ;ne of his many parts was ;yumi in $wa no :aruto )aka%ondoro, accompanied by -anhiko as A'rbei. His disposition was as a really 2erydocile person and along with %anshu and -anhiko had a popular reputation

In Mei&i 55 )5676, for the second time he again went to Tky. ;n the occasion ofhis arri2al he went to the Hisamatsuza Theatre )aka Mei&iza, when "awamuraTossh II took the name "uketakaya Takasuke I+ as zagashira troupe leader."econd was #an&aku in the principle role in Duruteya Hachirbei his honourable wifewas played by ;noe Tagano& II. Then after that he played the role of BazamaA'tar in the #omamonoya Bashichi )Bashichi of the haberdashery store, scene ofthe play 9h'shin #shaku )The @oyal "amurai, and in the scene at the "omei

Cekiya)*arden "hop at "omei, Tagano& played the role of the chambermaid ;takawho he trysts with in a carriage stripped to the waist and in a red &uban )underwearworn with a kimono, with wooden geta clogs of 2arious colours which e2en so wasspoken of as absurd acting and thats all there was to it. He hadnt become aproficient #amigata )#ytoE>saka region, specialist actor. The Fdo actors didnt feelthat this was 2ery good craftsmanship. ;h noG $t the time I was a complete no2ice. Ipolitely asked 2arious teachers with e0pertise in drama if this was suitable1 therewere yet more stories about stri2ing to be. "hibaraku)

actor and aeared in the role of Kan 2sh Kakuju. #,m not overl$ conscious of thefact that this was a situation from a long time ago. ore recentl$ # saw r.
