'Sarusuberi' (百日紅) is the name of a famous manga series by Sugiura Hinako (杉浦日向子 1958-2005).
Known as 'Miss Hokusai' in English, it details the life of Hokusai's daughter, Ōi Katsushika (葛飾応為 1800-66). Sugiura compared the vigor of the crape myrtle to that of ukiyo-e.

In Japan there is a famous tale about Oiwa whose husband disfigured her so he could remarry. This #ukiyoe print by Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1852) shows the vengeful ghost of Oiwa squeezing blood from her hair, watched by her terrified husband who she endlessly haunted. #GhostMonth #ukiyoe #JapaneseArt
