Kohana-san, a favourite of all of us back when she was a maiko. May she have a long and successful career

She is SO patient and lovely

really like how sometimes the geishas will sometimes nod opr sayhi to the elderly japanes who have great respect foe the tradition

Kohana-san as a geiko is gorgeous beyond words. Btw, I've recently come across your channel and now I'm able to witness such events as erikae of my favourite geimaiko just as if I were part of this crowd, so I wanted to say thank you for sharing these wonderful moments of the life of the karyukai with us!

I really appreciate your kinds words, Annette, and Im happy to bring this to you.

This young woman is like a fine piece of porcelain beautiful and immaculately turned out. Thx again Dave. You don't think about this but you'r filming a bit of history every time you do this.

Thank you, Benny! We don’t see many videos of this so I’ll try and capture what I can.

Thank you for sharing with us, I noticed on Instagram following her hashtag that she had her Erikae. She’s lovely, and I admire her composure in this crowd! Some came awfully far in what I consider personal space (and with Coronavirus even more so)!

I agree. Despite the pandemic and not being allowed to take photos here, in principle, they did. I tried to somewhat keep my distance and film the whole situation rather than just her.

Absolutely stunning. Thanks for recording this!

You’re welcome. It was a very tough crowd...

Thanks for being there! I was expecting for your video. Kohana looks stunning as expected. This photographer in kimono is so stylish, he's usually in kimono for debuts and he inspires me to wear more kimono when in Kyoto.

He was probably one of the few people who had any decency there. The crowd was awful. I edited a lot of very rude people out of this video.

@@DaveinOsaka, geiko have the talent to make men go crazy. I myself try my best to don't behave like them, this takes me to loose a lot of good oportunities for photos, bu I preffer this way.

She's so beautiful! It was odd how that one place they called on kept them waiting outside. How rude. No one even welcome them in. That's the first time I've seen something like that.

Спасибо🙏 очень интересно :) очень милая гейко :) И всё таки, то что первыми гейшами были мужчины - это правильнее... Что бы там не говорили, но только личная порядочность хозяйки дома окия служит тому, что она не будет продавать девственность девушек ужасным богатым старикам. Женщины более уязвимы в плане сексуальных домогательств и поэтому гейши-мужчины изначально было более продумано...

今祇園甲部は”若い”地方さん不足で三味線が有る程度の名取レベルなら舞妓の経験がなくても置屋に所属していなくても出前芸妓として登録出来るみたいですよ・・・・名前が判ないが宮川町出身の比較的若い地方さんをよく知っています顔だけですが・・・時々一力に入って行く姿をyootubeで何回も観てます・・・・祇園東には4大卒の真希乃さんという方も居ますしね～かなりの長身美人さんですからこの黄色の着物の芸妓さんもそういう方かな・・・・・一緒にいたお姉さんも芸妓さんか置屋の若女将かな・・・・・

Question here why does she have the finger like markings unlike the other geisha in the other town? Does this designate a Tea house or something else? Also my preference is to this one she seems more demure and more feminine actions in walk and mannerisms than that in Kyoto (sp)

I asked on another forum who the geiko in yellow is. I think someone will know.

Are geiko & maiko taught to walk pigeon-toed, with their toes turned in? All of them don't walk regular with straight feet. It looks like they're ready to trip over their feet at any given moment.
