Why did Kishi choose a swastika?

[Yusuke Urameshi]

On the Hyuga leader's, or his brother's head, why did Kishi put a Swastika? He could've put a circle or some other geometric shape. Why that one?

 

[Kettei]

Its japanese history not something he made up

 

[-Shiro-]

because it has other meanings then that the japeness used it first for somthing else

 

[SatchiZurake]

In East Asia the swastika is a chinese character meaning infinite.

 

[xXFLAVORSXx]

thats an x

 

[Prime Rib]

cause kishi likes whites

 

[Yusuke Urameshi]

Ik there's other meanings than the German one, but why that? Lol

 

[-Carnage-]

in the viz version its an X......

 

[Casdun]

As the people have said before me it was a different meaning then that of which many sadly know, if i remember correctly it's actually a Buddhist or Hindu symbol meaning roughly "to be good".

 

[SatchiZurake]

Yes in the english dub it was changed to an X because American's find the swastika offensive.

 

[IKSOKRIPS]

Actually is a Hindu and Buddhist symbol.

That's what I read, but what's that have to do with the Hyuga's? All their turmoil and hate?

 

[Casdun]

Well think about it, it's meaning is "to be good" roughly, so when they go to harm the main branch it is making them be good XD , plus it's a seal that seals theirs eyes away upon death or when someone tries to steal their eyes.

I don't see why people are making any reference to the German Swastika. It has a completely different meaning to them.

Never said it was. Lol It's just whenever anyone thinks of the swastika, they think of Hitler and Germany, usually.
