''Mahoroba'' is an ancient Japanese word describing a far-off land full of bliss and peace. It is roughly comparable to the western concepts of arcadia, a place surrounded by mountains full of harmony and quiet. ''Mahoroba'' is now written only in hiragana as まほろば. The origins of the word are not clear; it is described in a poem in the ancient ''Kojiki'' (古事記) as being the perfect place in Yamato: Note that the Kojiki itself did not use hiragana; the above is a modernized version. ==Notes== * The Space Battleship Yamato had a sister-ship that was named ''Chō Jikū Senkan Mahoroba'' (The Ultimate Time Sweeper Mahoroba) * Final Fantasy: Song Book - Mahoroba * The anime/manga Mahoraba. * In the anime Kannazuki no Miko, the story takes place in the village of Mahoroba. * In the game Boktai 3: Sabata's Counterattack, the final boss battle takes place on the moon's capital city of Mahoroba. * In the game Beatmania IIDX 16: Empress, there is a song called Mahoroba. * "The Man-yō Mahoroba Line" became in use for the common name of the West Japan Railway Company (JR West) Sakurai Line on March 13, 2010, the day of the diagram revision of JR Group. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mahoroba」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
