I have adapted this from a write-up I posted on E2. See my e2 home node. - Dunhamrc 07:11, 17 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Did he die in 1962 or 1972? The DOD at the top of the page is given as 1972, but at the bottom of the page it says he died of cancer in 1962. ???

1972 is a mistake. Thanks for pointing that out. Dunhamrc 18:42, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)


険 is "danger", and 剣 is "sword". Which is true?―219.173.119.42 07:33, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

剣 is correct. Another typo. Dunhamrc 19:41, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vagabond source

In the article on Vagabond, it's claimed that the manga is "by Takehiko Inoue and adapted from the fictionalized accounts by Eiji Yoshikawa of the samurai, Miyamoto Musashi", and the citation for the Kodansha Manga Award for 2000 cites Eiji Yoshikawa as writer for the series. But neither identify which works are the source. Can anyone clarify? —Quasirandom 22:51, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
