A member of the Azoza Kids Kagura Association plays the drums during a samurai dance performance titled “Akkonden,” also known as the evil fox legend, as part of a cultural enrichment event at Marine Corps Air station Iwakuni, Japan, July 17, 2023. The performance, also known as Kagura, originated in the eighth century to offer mythical gods prayers. Today, such performances are used to show gratitude to nature, praying for both world peace and a good harvest of crops. (U.S. Marine Corps Photo by Lance Cpl. Micah Taylor)
