Every year during the last weekend of July, hundreds of Samurai meet in Soma-City, a small town close to Fukushima, to share their traditions. 

For over a thousand years, uninterrupted, the Soma Namoi cavalcade has been arranged here. Even in 2011, after the atomic disaster and tsunami. Morality, glory and responsibility are the main qualities of every Samurai - more than ever after the worst-case-scenario. In addition to keeping up Samurai traditions, they also run first aid for the indigenous population, and are involved in new energy extraction projects.
