Yep, you read that right.
I am continuously amazed at the things folks find while researching:)

Id feel safe saying its all safe for viewing in most places, its all period art from scrolls/texts
No complete nudity (there is some partial but the site 'censored' it with black bars:)

To tempt you further:
No, you didn’t misread that last sentence. The whole scroll, which is called He-Gassen (“The Fart Battle”) is just about people farting. Farting at other people, farting at cats, farting off of horses, farting into bags; just farting everywhere.
This may be where the term kamakazi originated:)

Why did this suddenly pop up? A friend of mine (not a history person, per se) linked it to me on Facebook today.

I still think the medieval European miniatures depicting farting individuals or animals are more hilarious, personally!
