Masahide Miyazawa, who started out in the fashion industry, worked as a Huinam blogger, and then made a spectacular transition to the ramen industry. Long-time Huinam readers may recognize his name.
Currently, he runs Nishi-Nagafuku's Niboshi Box, a ramen restaurant specializing in niboshi.
And now comes the news that they have created an original T-shirt. As mentioned above, we originally came from the fashion industry, so this kind of manufacturing is something we are very familiar with.
The T-shirt is not just a quick print of a logo, as is often the case in restaurants, but a rich and mellow story.
¥4,500
Waist Knee Vox, a.k.a. Nini, is a great actress of yesteryear who was active worldwide.
Her debut film on the silver screen, 8th Day of the Week. It has a cult following among film enthusiasts and has only been released as a physical film on Beta and LD (laserdisc), so it is also called a "phantom" film.
In the scene in the play where she finishes slurping her ramen, she mutters to herself, "I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this.
Isn't it boring to have no bitterness or harshness?
This line was later projected onto her unprecedented way of life, and her resilient way of living gave birth to a large number of followers.
The sight of her sipping her ramen was so beautiful that many ramen store owners revered her as their muse.
(It was later discovered that the dialogue itself was ad-libbed. Also, after the movie was over, the audience left the cinema
(It caused a social phenomenon of people going straight to the ramen shops.)
A restaurant owner who fell in love with ramen after seeing the movie and the world's greatest actress.
Two people who had no contact at all, though.
Swiping right on an app he had registered for in a drunken stupor, the two were matched, whether by chance or necessity.
They had a very cordial encounter and hit it off. They hit it off and came up with the idea of creating this T-shirt.
This T-shirt was created based on the story of the "I've been thinking about this for a long time. Well, the richness and sharpness of imagination and creative brilliance is unbelievable.
Isn't it boring to have no bitterness or harshness?
No bitterness, no bitterness, no bitterness, no bitterness, no bitterness, no bitterness, no bitterness... boring, right? Life is the same.
It is said to be a combination of dried sardines, which are irresistible to those who love them, but surprisingly some people don't like them, and a line from a great actress who has bitten off both sour and sweet tastes.
Hmmm...it works...esprit de corps and dashi.
