Fūrinkazan 風林火山, "Wind, Forest, Fire,Mountain" ポスター

Fūrinkazan 風林火山, "Wind, Forest, Fire,Mountain".Fūrinkazan (風林火山?), literally "Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain", was the battle standard used by the Sengoku period daimyo Takeda Shingen, quoting chapter 7 of Sun Tzu's The Art of War: "as swift as wind, as orderly as forest, as fierce as fire, as unshakeable as mountain." The original Chinese appears separated in two consecutive passages: Chapter 7, passage 13: “故其疾如風，其徐如林“ Let your rapidity be that of the wind, your compactness that of the forest. Chapter 7, passage 14: “侵掠如火，不動如山“ In raiding and plundering be like fire, be immovable like a mountain.
