You neglected to mention that he's also a rabbit. Could make things
interesting...
More than that, Manji doesn't wear a hakenkreuz, or swastika. If you look,
you will note that they're pointing the wrong way, a reversed swastika, or
sauvastika, also known as a manji (hence his name, Manji). It is a symbol
sometimes used in some forms of Buddhism, and is often allied with the moon,
as the hakenkreuz is allied with the sun.
(And darn it, isn't it time we had more Blade of the Immortal fanfics?)
