皆さまへ, With a heavy heart and profound sadness, today, September 21, 2025, we, Kaishu Sōke, have decided to step down and bring our family to a close — what may be called a DISBANDMENT. After much reflection, we have agreed upon this decision, and perhaps this is the path we must take. Some truths cannot be spoken, and with that, we gently allow our dear neighbors to leave this place.

It has been an honor and a joy to walk alongside you as neighbors. Every bond we have shared, every laughter, every warmth, and every fleeting moment is a treasure we will carry like the blossoms of the camellia — elegant yet transient, steadfast yet delicate. Though seasons may change, their beauty will forever remain in our hearts. ♥️

With gratitude and respect,
Kaishu Sōke 家
