    Yeah, Nyuu a lot of animes are based on Japenese folk lore. The last image is of a nine-tails fox. Sound familiar?

    Those are some amazing pictures. I'm going to put them up on my background. To respond to your comment in my blog. You aren't going to have any luck finding DE razors in the stores. Why? Because the big razor companies pay the retail stores only to stock THEIR product. Think about it, 24.99 for 8 razors or 15.99 for 200 razors? They would take an incredible hit financially. Your best bet is to check out stores online. I got some links on the bottom of my blog for specific items I've only ever used and can attest they are worth it. Some people are put off by buying a Safety Razor for 25 bucks, but its the last one you'll ever buy;same thing goes for the badger brush. If you've got any questions, let me know!
