   • 2009, Takayuki Yoshida, “Ohitsuji-za, Aries”, in Tentai shashin no sekai [World of astrophotography]‎^[1]:

     ハマル以(い)外(がい)の星(ほし)は ３(さん)等(とう)星(せい)以(い)下(か)の暗(くら)い星(ほし)ばかりなので、都(と)会(かい)からでは星(せい)座(ざ)の形(かたち)を想(そう)像(ぞう)するのは困(こん)難(なん)です。

     Hamaru igai no hoshi wa santōsei ika no kurai hoshi bakari na no de, tokai kara de wa seiza no katachi o sōzō suru no wa konnan desu.

     The stars other than Hamal are dim, only around magnitude 3 or below, so it is difficult to make out this constellation in the city.
