T\u014dsenky\u014d is a traditional Japanese game with a history of approximately 300\u2013400 years. It was initially played by nobles in Ky\u014dto and later spread to Edo (modern-day T\u014dky\u014d). The game is simple, involving three main components: fans, a butterfly (target), and a wooden base (cushion). From a certain distance, players throw open fans toward the target, and the score is calculated based on the relative positions of these three components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
