The tools used during shodo include shitajiki, bunchin, suzuri, sumi, and fude. At the beginning of shodo, one must pay attention to his posture and hand to get good results. It is strongly advised so that the result can be as good as it is written with Japanese brush/fude. There are some various kinds of Japanese shodo, such as kaishou, gyousho, shousho.
