Fan Art
Ok, I'll get the picture sent asap. As I seem to be missing lots of obvious information clearly written on the pages is there anything about name change? Or should I unsubscribe and make a new account with a different name?

Name change? - Kappa

Kappa Sake

Those rabbits make mochi on the moon
So, I asked about it, and it seems that you can see the image of a rabbit making mochi on the moon. I had thought maybe the craters were rabbit holes but actually one of the bottom most craters is a mochi barrel and the rabbit is a bit to the left with a hammer pounding the mochi. Not weirder than b...

Rabbits on the moon
I havent had a chance to find out more about this yet but it seems that Japanese folktales have rabbits living on the moon. As autumn is a nice season for moon watching (sukimi) there are many sukimi specials including foods with sunny side up eggs as they resemble the moon. Ads for this type of thi...

Usagi's swordmanship training when he was very young seems to be based on a novella I read once called "The Ronin" unfortunately, i have lost my copy of the book, if I can get any information about it, author publisher etc. please let me know. -Matt
