about: beauty in japanese language

the japanese language knows many words for "blood".
but one is especially beautiful:

返り血
in kana: かえり・ち
in romaji: kaeri·chi

in english: Blood of the enemy that hits you when you slay him with the sword.
in german: Blut des Gegners, das einen trifft, wenn man ihn mit dem Schwert niederstreckt.


PS: it's also nice to do a google image search on this word ;-)
