:'''''Oo-mukade(giant centipede) has been featured in the ledgend of a 12th century warrior named Toda Tawara.In his story, the mukade was suppose to be slain be the hero for the Dragon King of Lake Biwa. The hero killed the mukade using only 3 arrowas which were shot at the eye of the mukade, only the 3rd one, which had saliva (saliva is thought of as having magical proerties) on the arrow head finished it off. The Oo-mukade appeared on blue Seed episode 12 (I think),which was btw, one of the episodes that starts to show the whole plot of the series....yeah, that episode kicked ass. | :'''''Oo-mukade(giant centipede) has been featured in the ledgend of a 12th century warrior named Toda Tawara.In his story, the mukade was suppose to be slain be the hero for the Dragon King of Lake Biwa.

:'''''In Japanese Mythology, Oo-Mukade was a terrifying, giant centipede the size of a mountain. It lived in the mountains of Japan near Lake Biwa. The dragon king of the lake asked the famous hero Hidesato (some sources say Tado Tawara) to kill it. The hero fired three arrows at the monster's eye. The third arrow, which was dipped in Hidesato's bodily fluid, killed the monster by penetrating its brain. The dragon king rewarded Hidesato by giving him a "bottomless" bag of rice which fed his family for centuries. The bodily fluid on the arrow is said to have magical properties against centipedes.
