10:20, 3 April 2025 203.122.231.101 talk posted a new comment on Matsumae Castle (In 1849 the The Tokugawa government commanded Matsumae Takahiro to build a castle to enhance the defenses of the area. It was completed in 1854. The location of Matsumae Castle on the Southwesternmost tip of Hokkaido was a vital point for controlling the passage between Hokkaido and Honshu. At the time, the Matsumae did not have the funds to build a new castle at Mt. Hakodate, the recommended site, so they decided to fortify the home of Matsumae Takahiro at Fukuyama instead. During the Boshi...)

20:19, 31 March 2025 2001:1c0f:78b:3700:2dd5:ae16:d3d:ef92 talk posted a new comment on Tsuyama Castle Update and 500th Castle Visited (Visited Tsuyama last year, mostly for the Manabi Railway Museum and as a base for Yunogo Onsen, but the remains of the castle were pretty impressive too. Can only dream of how it once was. Unfortunately didn't have enough time to explore much more of the town.)

09:15, 17 February 2025 ART talk contribs posted a new comment on Kuma Castle (As far as descriptions on jcastle.info go, Kumajō would seem like quite a scary place to venture. Eric was just urging us to take proper precautions, but in my memory’s retelling it sort of sounded like... “Kumajō. This site is dangerous. If you lose your footing you will fall down a ridge and die. If you do not have a bear bell you will get mauled by a bear and die. If you are inexperienced you will make a mistake and die. If you do not have all the right equipment you will die”. And so on....)

15:46, 27 January 2025 ART talk contribs posted a new comment on Ohkusa Castle (Chita) (Two stars for the mogi because it's better than nout, but three for the castle because of the embankments and water moats, though the ruins could be better maintained.)
21:57, 23 January 2025 AnneMcL talk contribs posted a new comment on Nagayama Castle (Suo) (I've added some photos from my visit to the castle site (now Kameyama Park) on 30 November 2024.)
05:50, 13 January 2025 2601:588:c500:3db0:b88c:777b:e84e:2bb4 talk posted a new comment on Shinpu Castle (Today I finished reading the 4 volumes of the manga "Takeda Shingen" that my wife gave me for Christmas. The last one is about this castle, its importance and destruction and the tragic end of the Takeda family. It made me very sad. I just saw this chapter of this great website. It is an immense lesson about destiny and its outcomes when the criteria of advisors (vassals) and the failure of management that can lead to the destruction of a clan are not taken into account. Thank you for your re...)
10:36, 10 January 2025 Snoworion talk contribs posted a new comment on Hamamatsu Castle (Visited on 1 January 2025. Unfortunately, I did not manage to enter into the main tower but I had the chance to explore the castle grounds and loved the tranquillity it accorded. The castle sits atop a small hit and from its fortifications is a very nice vista of the town. On the grounds also stands a statue of Tokugawa Isyasu, commemorating the fact that the Shogun spent 17 years there engaging in some of his most well known battles.)

08:55, 8 January 2025 203.180.144.113 talk posted a new comment on Chiba Castle (Not worth visiting. As said the reconstruction is unfaithful and the look of the thing...it just looks wrong and aritificial. This big tower plonked in the middle of a drab urban residential area. The grounds surrounding it are tiny and pretty standard fair of a few trees and open spaces. Inside the castle looks to be offices or somesuch before the doors remained closed to me. One humerous thing about this castle is they've built a modern viewing platform in front of it, in a position that sh...)
