Jugemu jugemu

Post by takenoko »

So we all know and hate Jugemu from Rakugo. The kanji 寿限無 means "immortal". It's also romanized as Jugem

But did you know that's Lakitu's name in Japanese? (You know, the fishing cloud turtle guy from the Mario games)

It's basically the story of a dude whose name is really freaking long so every time they say his name it takes about a minute to say the whole thing.

If you've ever read Tikki Tikki Tembo it's very similar to that story.
