In german, the word for tail,
is "Schwanz". A perfectly normal word, except
for the fact, "Schwanz" is also a slang term for
the male sex organ. So, watch those two
scenes again, and substitute "prick" for
everytime the word "tail" is used.
Shouldn't come as any surprise, sugar...
as it so happens, the English word 'penis'
comes from the Latin word for 'tail'. And
if you're familiar with Yiddish, there's a cute
little word for said organ is, indeed...
"schvantz"
I still can't keep a straight face whenever
I think about it.
D'ja ever think this mighta been intentional
on Akira Torayama's part? ^_^
Sneaky little devil, if true...
