Japanese Dice Set – Last Words Stone

Japanese Dice Set: Last Words Stone

The genesis of the Japanese Dice Set is strongly influenced by Virtues derived from the old traditions of the Samurai, known in the West mainly in an embellished, romantic version. This is completely sufficient to transfer certain elements to our times, creating a vision of the Samurai as a man not only trained in combat but also having adamant willpower, unrelenting self-discipline, and a strong system of values. According to the Bushido Code, these noble warriors were a great example of what every man and woman should strive to be in their lives.

The Bushido Code is represented by seven major Virtues, originally called Gi, Rei, Yu, Meiyo, Jin, Makoto, and Chu – translated as Integrity, Respect, Courage, Honor, Compassion, Honesty, and Loyalty, respectively. We wanted our Japanese Dice to reflect these Virtues in a non-obvious but eloquent way. We know that our fans are gifted with great imagination, so we allow ourselves the following interpretation.

The Last Words Stone is a set that reflects the virtues of the Bushido Code through Respect and Loyalty – to values and to people. By respecting traditions and remaining faithful to friends, you lay strong foundations for the fortress of your own being. Remembering your ancestors allows you to learn from their experiences and not repeat their mistakes, thus gaining respect from yourself and from others. This is valuable both in real life and during any game!
