Sell ancient artifacts, fund the world-saving ...
Currently Reading: among other things, The Nobility of Failure: Tragic Heroes in the History of Japan by Ivan Morris.
In the course of my research for Weepee Prime (work-in-progress), I've been reading extensively up on ancient Japan in general and the Muromachi period in particular. Now it could be the livejournal pseudointellectual influences talking, but I have this theory that the entire Izanagi/Izanami myth was created because some dude witnessed childbirth - or a particularly bloody period - and just freaked the fuck out.
That or he met a PMSing woman for the first time.
*Ahem*
Moving on, it is patently clear to me that Tetsuaiga is a goddamn erection. How come no one else cares about these things?
