Okay, I think I'll just have the weapon as a Shikomizue, tied to her waist. Nevermind about the nagimaki.<br/><br/>That shamisen idea is good, but it's too much Zatoichi. Though I wouldn't mind it being just a dagger-sized blade hidden within it. With the happy-go-lucky (optimistic side) personality, I can imagine her as a similarity to a guy standing around in the middle of playing an ukelele.<br/><br/>I imagine the unusual eye color would be red, which would have other people believing she was an illegitimate child of a demon-human pairing. Is there another color that would be considered unusual to the Japanese people besides red and blue (white people/foreigners)?
