    Hmm, “1200-600 CE”?

    Looks like it should be 1200-1600 CE (or AD).

    You can’t convince me that that’s not an Orca.

    Orcas have always been friends to humans that do not own yachts.

      Indeed, according to anthropologist Robert L. Hoover, “the killer whale [orca] was regarded by the Chumash as a benevolent creature which drove schools of porpoises and whales ashore where they could be utilized by man.”

        Guess Nintendo’s going to have to sue Akira Toriyama’s estate, then.

    Oh no, nobody tell Nintendo about this. They’ll be sharpening their copyrights and salivating over patents.
