Indomitable; unyielding (literally: ‘unbent by a hundred setbacks’)
@kuroe_voice Four-character idiom for those who strive: “Hyakusetsu-futō” (literally, “bent a hundred times, never broken”). May it offer you even a little encouragement.Words that resonate with the hearttranslationVoice actorvoice
Original Song – Genki Kuroe [KUROE GENKI] – Genki Kuroe [KUROE GENKI] / Voice Actor · Narrator
In life, work, and learning, things often don’t go as planned.
Yet these words teach us the importance of continuing to take on challenges without fearing failure.
Rather than giving up after one or two setbacks, getting back up again and again builds experience and wisdom, which eventually leads to results and growth.
By keeping in mind the idea of “no matter how many times you fail, don’t let your spirit break—keep challenging yourself,” you can maintain a positive outlook when facing difficulties and find the courage to keep moving forward.
with all one’s mightNEW!
It’s a four-character idiom that means “to try your hardest and never give up until the end.” For example, in a school sports day relay, running with all your might because you want to come in first, or carefully finishing a drawing assignment to the very end—those are both examples of doing your best with all your heart.
Working hard to make up with a friend after a fight also shows the spirit of wholehearted effort.
When you throw yourself into something and give it your all, you gain new abilities and find more enjoyment.
It’s a very uplifting expression you can use whenever you feel, “I’m going to give it my all!” in everyday life.
giving it your allNEW!
It means “to put your full effort into something.” For example, running at full speed until the very end in a relay at a sports day, chasing the ball with all your might in a soccer match, or sticking with your homework or kanji practice without giving up—these are all cases of giving it your all.
Fully enjoying playtime with friends, or creating art and crafts with heartfelt dedication, are also examples.
When you give everything you’ve got to anything you do, you can feel a sense of accomplishment and joy.
This four-character idiom expresses an energetic, positive attitude.
majestic and dignifiedNEW!
This four-character idiom describes a dignified and imposing attitude or conduct.
“Ifu” refers to an aura of dignity and a forcefulness that overwhelms others, while “dōdō” means being unflinching, confident, and splendid.
It can describe people—“The victorious athlete cut an imposing and dignified figure”—as well as things, such as buildings—“The Western-style mansion was so grand and imposing that it overshadowed the other structures.” The phrase “Ifūdōdō” also brings to mind Elgar’s march “Pomp and Circumstance.” It’s a familiar tune, often used as background music in commercials.
A hundred flowers in full bloom
The look of a slogan matters, too.
With that in mind, I’d like to introduce the four-character idiom hyakka ryōran.
It depicts a beautiful scene where many different kinds of flowers are in full bloom.
By extension, it’s also used to describe a gathering of people with diverse talents.
Using this idiom as a slogan conveys the message that your class brings together people with a wide range of abilities.
It’s also a good choice if you want to emphasize respect for each individual’s uniqueness.
Once-in-a-lifetime encounter
Encounters with people and the irreplaceable time we spend together carry the important meaning that they will never return in exactly the same form.
The days you share with classmates at school and the casual conversations you have are special moments that exist only now.
By valuing that time, feelings of gratitude and a caring heart grow.
Precisely because there are times when we are separated—such as class changes or graduation—it becomes all the more important to cherish our connections with others.
This gentle, memorable four-character idiom teaches us the significance of living fully in the present and creating memories.

unite efforts with one heart
@kurukoba Four-character idioms translationWork together with united strength
♬ Original Song – Bird v🔍💙 – Hour of Four Ripe
This four-character idiom is especially recommended for those who play team sports or group competitions.
Rikuryoku kyōshin (戮力協心) means “to unite hearts and work together,” with everyone joining forces as one.
In sports, things don’t go well if only one person tries hard, right? It’s essential for everyone to share the same goal and keep in step.
Doing so multiplies your strength many times over.
Developing a sense of camaraderie brings teammates closer and helps you support each other emotionally, so take this opportunity to remember it.
