The symbol of WBKL originates in the family crest of Shingen Takeda of a great general in the 16th century. At that time ,Japan was Warring
Period and famous generals who aimed at the whole country union were competing.
Shingen Takeda was a hero of Samurai and very popular. He died in the near future reunification
