I don't really know what's underneath the actual shape of the car for the 4th panel. So, hope everyone doesn't mind the simplified version.
A few days ago, I was watching an old anime Saiyuki on TV. For your info, the anime Saiyuki is actually based on thousand-year-old old classic Chinese fantasy literature "Journey to the West" and the main characters include a monkey, a pig, a priest, and a sand monk. The story basically tells a troup of human-youkai travelling band from China in search of obtaining the Buddhist scriptures in India. If you have seen an anime character named "Goku", then that's actually the name of the monkey. And if you notice carefully, majority of the characters named "Goku" in Japanese anime have some monkey traits - They either have a tail, have a stubborn attitude, looks a bit like a monkey, loves banana or was called a "monkey".
Anyway, about Saiyuki, my mom noticed something on the anime and said something that made me laughed.
Mom: Who's that stuck up character? Me: That's Goddess of Mercy. Mom: What? Goddess of Mercy? My goodness, she looks so pervert in that clothing! o_o How could the artist drew such things on the Buddhist icon? Me: You shoulda see Sanzo. He smokes. Mom: What? That's like… Blasphemy! o_o Me: XD
Oh, if you chance upon this classic literature called "Journey to the West" or "Monkey King" at the bookshop. Do read it. It started a bit boring initially but when you read further, the story is really cute, funny, amusing, and addictive. It's a story that has inspired a lot of anime and manga artists.
