#LegalStorytelling
Key themes from my #NovelBohemians:

- “Invisible poverty” in an ostensibly middle‑class, affluent Japan;
- The tension between meritocracy and structural inequality;
- Music as both refuge and lingua franca.

Behind every statute lies a story. Before it was a section number in a civil code, it was someone’s heartbreak, loss, or cry for justice.

Storytelling brings us back to the roots of justice, reminding us why laws exist: to respond to human realities.

Bach’s Partita beneath the fluorescent light

In my #NovelBohemians , they don’t ask for permission.
They carve sonatas into subway walls, rehearse under flickering bulbs, and perform for no one—until someone listens.

Enjoy this handmade “trailer” for a movie I made as a legal storyteller☺️

Two teens reunite as adults on opposite ends of privilege.

Welcome to our imaginary court—a trial without verdict.

ストーリーを大切にしながら法の世界を探求しています。

Welcome to my story-led classroom.

I'm a legal educator and storyteller exploring law through fiction, music, and lived experience.

The court adjourns. The duet continues offstage.

Mock trials with real emotions. Characters with legal dilemmas.

Welcome to a courtroom of empathy.

In my story-led law education, fiction is not decoration—it’s a training ground.

My students step into an imaginary courtroom based on my novel, Who Owns #UTokyo ? , a story exploring meritocracy.

The Illusion of a Level Field

They say the Ivy League gates are open to all.

But some walk barefoot; others are chauffeured there.

Is it really merit, or simply a matter of distance?

"What if you could turn every legal case into a story so compelling, it leaves judges and juries hanging on your every word?"

The secret to winning cases isn’t just about the facts—it’s about how you present them.

Stay tuned.

We’re excited to watch Utrecht University’s upcoming experiment in theatrical legal storytelling!

Based around a case of ecocide, this performance will include more-than-human voices and invite audience participation. Curious too? www.uu.nl/en/events/th... #ecocidelaw #legalstorytelling
This is not a trial
A theatrical experiment on ecocide and justice. Step into the jury box in THIS IS NOT A TRIAL and rethink what law can mean in an age of climate crisis.

In Tokyo, the streets glow. The trains arrive on time. The skyline looks like success. And beneath that—underpaid labor, locked doors, invisible exhaustion, and the strange humiliation of being told you’re “responsible” for circumstances you didn’t choose.

What surprised us most in 2025 wasn’t which Persuadius articles were most read—it was why.

Readers consistently gravitated toward clarity over cleverness, story over data dumps, and visuals that explain rather than decorate.

I am presenting at #LegalStorytelling (and writing an article) about how lawyers use PowerPoint in practice.

I have some great examples and quotes already but am curious #appellatetwitter and #lawtwitter: how do you use digital presentations in your practice?

4/ 📚Stories Matter.

As #legalstorytelling scholars have long recognized don’t forget the story as lens for writing.

For Burr that was the story that he waited for his love who was married to someone else. That is the story that provided the lens for the song and character.
