Rakugo and footwear are deeply related as important elements that reflect traditional Japanese customs and lifestyles, and Gion Naito and OJOJO NAITŌ have had a long relationship with the Rakugo world. Among them are two members of the Katsura school, leading the way in the modern era, and there are plenty of stories that are “just like rakugo,” from when they first met until their relationship thereafter. A wide range of topics will be covered, including their true selves that you don’t usually see on stage, behind the scenes as rakugo performers, and more. The “Ohanashi” is as snappy as ever, and the time flies by.

Please take a look. ・OJOJO NAITŌ CHANNEL “Ojojo Naito no Odekake no Hanashi” https://www.youtube.com/@naitojojochannel362 Vol.4 Katsura Kichibo Rakugo performer Born in Hyogo Prefecture. Became a disciple of Katsura Kichiasa on January 10, 1999. He started training as an apprentice under Katsura Beicho in April 2000, graduating in April 2003. Since then, he has been performing on stage, mainly classical rakugo. He holds his own group, “Kichibo no Kai,” in Tokyo and Osaka, as well as rakugo performances in various places. He also serves as a navigator and talker for classical cultural arts such as gagaku, Japanese dance, and Noh. Vol.5 Katsura Futaba Rakugo storyteller Born in Osaka Prefecture. Became a disciple of Katsura Yoneji on March 9, 2011. While preserving and performing classical rakugo in the good old Osaka dialect, she vividly portrays the charming people who live in the Kamigata region and the people who live strong lives with her own sensibilities. She struggled to overturn the conventional wisdom that “it is difficult for women to perform classical rakugo,” and became the first woman to win the grand prize at the NHK Newcomer Rakugo Awards in 2021. She continues to strive to bring about change in the world of rakugo, which has been around for about 300 years. 【 OJOJO NAITŌ 】 This is a new footwear brand from Gion Naito, a long-established Kyoto kimono craftsman who has been making kimono for over 100 years. We propose a new style of footwear by combining the reliable techniques and knowledge cultivated by measuring the characteristics of the feet and making kimono by order with modern designs that match modern lifestyles. OJOJO was born from a reinterpretation of beach sandals based on the Japanese Zori, which are popular all over the world. In addition to basic styles, OJOJO also offers colorful straps with volume and slightly thicker heels. The carefully selected materials are abrasion-resistant rubber material for the outsole, a special cork that is comfortable to the feet and water-resistant for the footbed, a material with excellent elasticity for the straps that have a strong presence, and the same silicone as the mouth of a baby bottle is used for the front pressure point. It is designed to be comfortable to wear for long periods of time without getting tired, and to have a comfortable fit. A modern approach that combines different materials in a simple way.
