-- TO MY FRIENDS --
To all of our dear friends in the great Kansai region,*
who made an unwavering vow for kosen-rufu together with me,
soar into a new "Ever Victorious" sky with unstoppable momentum!
Let triumph ring throughout the shining bastion of kosen-rufu!

* The Kansai region comprises 10% of Japan's land area. It consists of eight prefectures; Osaka, Hyogo, Kyoto, Shiga, Nara, Wakayama, Mie, and Tokushima.
The major cities of Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, Ohtsu, Nara, Wakayama, Tsu,
and Tokushima are all located in the Kansai region.

---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
The greater resistance that waves meet,
the stronger they become.
By chanting daimoku with a strong indomitable spirit,
let's challenge ourselves over and over.
That is how we can hoist high the banner of victory!
