#4: Planet Buddha — January 4, 2013

We had a busy day today at the Manga University Tokyo Campus. It was time for the traditiional "spring cleaning," which in Japan takes place in winter. We swept, scrubbed and polished the four-story MU Administration Building from top to bottom. The chores continued until sundown. By then, we were too worn out to do anything but watch some anime.

But there was one task remaining. We needed to get a picture of the Manga University Daibutsu. So, we set him in front of the TV and began snapping away. This is the photo we liked the best, as we feel it reflects the spirit of Buddha and his quest for enlightenment.
