Kiyoshi Yoshida feat Yukihiko Mitsuka - Warriors

En la tradición japonesa, el bushido  es un término traducido como "el camino del guerrero".

Es un código ético estricto y particular al que muchos samuráis entregaban sus vidas, que exigía lealtad y honor hasta la muerte. Si un samurái fallaba en mantener su honor, podía recobrarlo practicando el seppuku (suicidio ritual). Se dice que desde pequeño, el bushido era inculcado a los japoneses de la clase dirigente incluso antes de despegarse del pecho de la madre.
