This pen is inspired 16th century Chinese novel named "Journey to the West", one of the most famous mythical folk tale in Eastern Asia often featured in shows, movies, and books in Japan and China. The story's main character is the Monkey King (aka Sun Wukong in Chinese or Son Goku in Japanese) who possesses many magical abilities including super strength, super speed, cloning, and transformations. In the original story, he accompanies a monk along with a half-pig and half-demon in an adventure to seek the Buddhist sutras in India.

About Danitrio Genkai Series:
The owner of Danitrio had called this series of pens "Genkai", meaning "limit" in Japanese. The intent was that this would be the largest pen series of Danitrio and no other pen would be larger than it. Little did he know that later on he would develop a series with an even larger pen called the Yokozuna.
