Description
Before I catch any possible shit for it, the swastika was an honorable symbol in Japan many, many, many years before the nazi's perverted it. That is why the character has it in the manga "Blade of the Immortal".Folks that are gonna bitch get slapped, then deleted. Peas!!

A manji is actually not a swastika. It is the symbol but it is in the reverse direction. It also is derived from India, not Japan. Though there are plenty of groups who have used the symbol in their culture such as Native Americans using it (in the way of the swastika) but on fire and was dubbed the "flame wheel"
Regardless of the semantics behind the symbol, great artwork.

Correct, my point is that it had a meaning in Japan, where the story takes place.
Thanks!
