Daikon, mooli, or white radish (Raphanus sativus var. longipinnatus, also known by other names)
is a mild-flavoured, very large, white East Asian radish with a wide variety of culinary uses.
Despite often being associated with Japan, it was originally cultivated in continental Asia.
White radishes are known by several names in English, most commonly daikon. Other names include
mooli, Oriental radish, Japanese radish, Chinese radish, Korean radish, chai tow, and lo bok. In
many cases, several terms will coexist in the same locale, referring to different white radish
varieties.

The English name "daikon" derives from the Japanese daikon (大根), literally "large root" (usually
rendered in Katakana as ダイコン) and is the most common name for the vegetable in North America.
However, the greener, rounder Korean varieties are rarely called daikon and are instead usually
referred to as "Korean radish". Likewise, Chinese varieties are sometimes called "lo-bok" or
"lo-bak" derived from the Cantonese lòhbaahk (蘿蔔).

Daicon was a small anime convention that occurred in Osaka throughout the early eighties. With a
low budget Daicon commissioned five out of work animators to put together a trailer for their
convention. With a minimal budget this was what they created. Those five animator would go on to
create Gainax studios.

Hey, we have Kill la Kill coming out this summer. It's made by Studio Trigger, which was formed
by most of the guys who made up old Gainax and were responsible for Gunbuster, NGE, EoE, TTGL,
FLCL, and PSG.
Of course you should know this already.
