Episode 7: The Thousand-Stitch Belt (Senninbari)
The senninbari or one thousand-stitch belt is a magical kind of sash worn my soldiers in World War 2 to ward off enemies bullets and impart super human strength.
Notes: The intro/outro music of Uncanny Japan is a song by Christiaan Virant (“Yi Gui” from Ting Shuo). The whole album is just gorgeous as it everything else by FM3.
