616

Thanks to lemonlye for the link to this article.
Apparently, the satanical "666" might in fact have been a "616" after all.

Let alone that hundreds of satanophile people have wrong tattoos, I find it amusing because, in my Kanji dictionary, the Kanji #666 is 波 (HA, nami - wave. Yes, the nami from tsunami), while the Kanji #616 is 宗 (SHÛ, SÔ - religion, sect). Now of course, a wave can be a devilish beast, but religions and sects have so much more to do with the devil.

Coincidence, of course, but I still find it amusing.

*amüsier*

Dankeschön an lemonlye, die zu diesem Artikel verlinkt hat. Offenbar ist die satanische Zahl 666 eigentlich ursprünglich eine 616 gewesen.

Das amüsiert mich nicht nur deshalb, weil dann wohl hunderte satanophile Leute eigentlich verkehrte Tatoos haben, sondern auch, weil in meinem Kanjilexikon die Nummer 666 波 (HA, nami - Welle. Ja, das nami aus tsunami), das Kanji 616 aber 宗 ist (SHÛ, SÔ - Religion, Sekte). Nun können Wellen natürlich teuflische Biester sein, aber irgendwie haben Religionen und Sekten doch mehr mit dem Teufel zu tun.

Zufall, aber ich find's trotzdem lustig.

....616 is ESPECIALLY hilarious because if you read Marvel Comics, you'll know that our Earth, obstensibly the "main" Earth in Marvel Comics from which all other continuity expands from, is...Earth 616. That's write, Earth 616. So called because in Marvel, multiple dimensions and parallel universes are recognized.

Earth 616! SATAN's EARTH!

Bwaaahah! That's even better!

... well, it's not entirely unfitting...
