When I read this issue, I wondered if this was the first time we've seen an elephant in the Usagi universe. I don't recall seeing one before this.

Yikes! Are we giving out clues already?

I don't recall ever seeing an elephant either.

I also don't recall Stan ever using the Japanese Zodiac to describe the time of day. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if it's been used many times before before and I just forgot. For some reason it popped out at me during that issue.

Haha, I guess it's only a clue if you know that I've read the entire run of Usagi, but not Space Usagi. So the clue is: this isn't from Space Usagi.

The clue I was referring to was elephant. He is wearing a partial mask after all.

The answer to this week’s question is Zō. This week’s winner is maka. Congrats and thanks for playing.



The answer could be found in Usagi Yojimbo: The Hidden #2 or you could have used an online English -> Japanese translator (much, much easier).

elephant = Zō



BONUS
Maka - Not only do you get to create the next challenge, but you also get to add some Dantes Verlag items to your collection. Please PM me your address if you are interested in them. If not, I'll roll them over to another contest.
