FUJIHARU – Soudanbe….Soudanbe…Thats a loud voices that i heard in this festival. They call it Soudanbe festival. This matsuri is held in Maebashi, Gunma on October, fall, end of summer every year.
What’s the meaning of soudanbe?
What is it? Its a lil bit weird for the first time when i heard this word. I have never heard this one before. But, actually its a word of Japanese Dialect in Gunma. It mean, “Is that right?”. Or, in Japanese also said, “Soudesuka”.
There is a festival in here, Maebashi. Actually i knew this Festival since i came here last year. But i didnt know what kind of festival is this.
There is a lot people who gather in this Matsuri. I think its more people than Tanabata Matsuri, because there was also dance competition, Danbe Odori, etc. I came to this festival with Andy and my guide friend, hehehe Tomita. Yes, he is always accompany me because he is like open book to me. when i didnt know something, i ll ask him, again and again. Hahahah. Of course its about Japanese. Such as, For what this annual mean? Is there any reason why these people bring Omikoshi? Why this people so encourage their culture?, etc. Sometimes he can answer it the way i can understand. Or…..i just shake my head *confuse. Sorry.
But, one thing that i sure, definetily! Maebashi so alive!!!! yes, because maebashi is little town and when there is a big event like this. All people from other city is like gathering together as one citizen from Gunma. Yeah…..I met my Indonesian friend and other country too in this festival. So excited.

Literally, its a for the kid. But, shouganai. Hahahaha.
And, the famous thing in Gunma is Danbe Odori. What is it? Its a traditional dance from Gunma. The movement is so energetic and feel good. Swag! Before my friend play this dance at the event, we were learn this dance at school with schoolmates. And…dance withous music is so boring. So,,,,there also music. And music so boring without beautiful teacher. Hahahah The teacher is Yoshida Sensei. She is gorgeous and we were like stupid people when we were taught by her. The way she move, talk and control us so toxical. Admit it! So, enjoy this video!

Buku belajar bahasa Jepang
Selain buku Shin Kanzen Master, aku juga menggunakan buku bahasa Jepang: buku minna no nihongo yang jilid Minna no nihongo 1 dan Minna no nihongo 2. I wish i got Minna no nihongo 1 pdf dan Minna no nihongo 2 pdf sih, soalnya kan semakin asyik bisa dibawa kemanapun. Jika Minna no nihongo pdf dan kunci jawaban minna no nihongo 1 pdf ada, makin komplit senengnya.
