【Kamon name】 Tachibana Orange13

Snake's Eyes

The emblem is named as such due to its resemblence with a snake's eye. However, it originally was a pictorial representation of an archer's bowstring reel. The daimyo Kiyomasa Kato used this emblem.

Moon

As a satellite of earth, the moon has long been the subject of worship. The warlord Masamune Date also worshipped the moon, and used it as a crest on his helm. The emblem is said to have originated from such worshipping of the moon.
