I noticed you had an entry in your weblog today which said “Ewww. Uncute Sanrio grandmother character should commit ritual Seppuku.” I thought you might like to know that Seppuku is (or was) not allowed for women – ritualistic disembowlment is only for men. Women were, however, entitled to commit Jigai, which involves tying your ankles together then slitting your throat. The ankles were tied to make for easier corpse disposal. Cool, huh?
