Meaning Mnemonic

When everyone has grain in their mouth, you will have peace. That is the Japanese style of doing things.

Hints

Imagine Japanese people with grain in their mouth. The whole country is at peace.

Reading Mnemonic

Peace is the Japanese style. The walruses (わ) living off of Japan see this, and start to emulate.

Hints

The walruses also achieve peace by putting grain in every walrus' mouth, following the Japanese style.
