Heimura Kenshin and Shedaba's Radishes

It has been ten years since I said it. At that time, I heard that "Remembrance" is a classic in the animation of "Rurouni Kenshin". I have always wanted to watch it, but I have never encountered it on the market. I was so sorry, and then gradually forgot about it. At that time, I always sneered at love stories in comics, not just comics, novels, TV dramas, anything related to love, it is inevitable to be ridiculed about it, that woman who falls in love is really disgusting, love The life and death are probably just the performance of the unpromising, except for Aba. It's really strange, this kind of gentle and quiet, cleaning and cooking every day, is not the type of woman that I hate, but only Aba is pleasing to the eye. To this end, he even secretly tore off an insert from a rented comic book. The picture shows Aba standing at the door of his house, watching the children in the village playing with Kenshin. They surrounded him and said to him, "This My sister is so scary and cold. Later, I imitated the comic book and carved the illustration of Kenshin and Aba standing on the bridge watching the sunset with a knife on black paper. I even submitted the manuscript and published it in a tabloid. In retrospect, I feel very embarrassed.

Yesterday, I accidentally saw the icon of "Remembrance" on PPTV, so I clicked it to read it, so I wiped my tears and wondered, haven't my current self and the junior high school student who was crying while reading comics didn't change at all? The lethality of radishes is beyond imagination. When he closed his eyes at night, Aba's face appeared vaguely. He said softly while holding the rice, "I'm sorry, there is no radish to mix with vegetables." Jianxin said, "It doesn't matter." Aba said, "But you don't look happy." After dinner, Abba was washing the dishes, and Jian Xin looked at his spinning top and said, "Why don't we farm..." So they planted radishes in the front yard. Why turnips? It's really funny to think about myself who cares about this issue, why is it a radish? Probably because it is tasteless and ordinary, because ordinary is so special, just like the days of living in Otsu to them, ordinary is valuable because of turmoil. Although after several heavy rains, the radishes survived tenaciously. On the night of the harvest, they ate a lot. Aba said, "You seem to have a delicious meal. If we were a real couple, you would live every day. Let’s live this kind of life, plough the fields, and eat the harvest in the fields.” Then, in the winter, I wonder if Abba made pickles from radishes, maybe she wanted to do it, but it was too late.

Kenshin left, and together with Gui, burned down her and their house, who could never wake up again. Did the radishes who were silently watching make Aba's sacrifice?

(It suddenly occurred to me that, fortunately, the person who discovered him was Katsura. If he had followed the shogunate, the story would have been completely tragic.)
