『大名行列』(Daimyo gyoretsu)
権威の象徴だった格式ばった大名行列を、笑いとばす絵本。「したにー、したにっ!」と、大まじめな表情で粛々と進む武士たちに混じって、「べんとー、べんとっ!」「やきいもー、やきいもっ!」「はっけよーい、はっけよい!」と、次々おかしなものが現れる。お殿様と家畜、恐竜とUFO、ヒエラルキーも時空もごちゃまぜのナンセンスな行列がどこから生まれたか、ページをたどっていくとわかる。リアルな描写がシュールなおかしさを倍増している。(広松)

Daimyo Parade
In the Edo period (1603-1868) nobles granted territory by the shogun would have to organize elaborate parades of their samurai retainers, events that would show authority and strengthen fealty to the shogun; it is said that when they passed by, onlookers had to prostrate themselves by the road. In this book, however, a formal procession becomes a source of laughter. Mixed in among the samurai marching with serious faces, are modern boxed-lunch and baked-potato vendors, giant sumo wrestlers, dinosaurs, and even UFOs! At the end, we learn this nonsensical procession emerged from some children’s play in the sandbox. Society upended! The rendering of whimsical imaginings with highly realistic illustrations adds to the glee in this book. (Hiromatsu)
