Creation and Usage Notes
| This may have been inspired by Sun Wukong (or Monkey) from Journey to the West. It's hard to imagine it wouldn't be, but cutting isn't really integral to his character (I mean, he's a violent fellow, but he uses his as-you-will cudgel, which bludgeons rather than slices).
