That's an interesting point about 'Masahiro' vs. 'Hiromasa'. I'll have to check out Shounen Onmyouji. I'm a big fan of the Onmyouji manga and movies, and I'm always curious about other things set in the Heian period...

Hi there! Nice to meet an LJer with an interest in the Heian-era and Seimei et al in particular :D

'Masahiro' vs. 'Hiromasa'

Different kanji, but with the Japanese penchant for cross-referencing in popular culture, one has to wonder...

I'm looking forward to more episodes of Shounen Onmyouji too - hopefully the subbing will be fairly faithful in view of the sometimes-esoteric historical events and occult terminology.

if I may ask, how did you find my LJ. Just curious ^_^
