The Emperor was impressed. The stage had been set, and he had been looking forward to seeing a Noh performance by a warrior. He went into the performance believing that no one of a martial persuasion could possibly have the necessary sensitivity to make Noh beautiful, but he had been wrong. The performance had been masterful. The samurai had moved with a stately grace and with such poise, Go-Kashiwabara had been greatly moved himself.
The performance had been masterful in another sense as well. In Noh, as with many of the arts, there is a pattern. Jo, Ha, Kyu, Zanshin, or in other words "slow, speed up, fast" and then a moment of presence, leaving behind the heart". In the role of Okina, Hosokawa Sumiyaki's fan showed this pattern with a subtle depth that was noticed by only a few. As Hosokawa raised his fan, time and time again, his subtle pattern spoke volumes to those who had accepted his money. The Minister of the Center. The Imperial Household's Major and Minor Counselor. And none other than Fujiwara no Fuyuyoshi, the Minister of the Right himself now stood on the promises of the Hosokawa.
During the zanshin of Hosokawa's performance, they saw their own hearts left behind. They now bowed to a different master, while their Emperor smiled and happily enjoyed a performance. A performance like one he had never thought he would see...
Congratulations to the Hosokawa Group, who have won the game.
Okaros (Starling), Mockra (Gavin), Barghast (Mentalist), Omtose (Bubba)
AND Tattersail as
Hosokawa Sumiyuki, (Tennes)

Many of you turned in truly masterful performances (How Starling kept dodging the lynch for instance).
Tattersail though, I feel I have to put forward for man of the match. He did anything but lurk, yet escaped all notice.

Only you I believe.
Everytime I did a recruit, exept for the first person in the chain, I always worded it "your fellow minister" had approached the recruitee.
No one noticed that, which I found a little surprising since people nit-pick wording from PS all the time.
