    The reason he carved the oar into a sword is because Sasaki's sword was huge. Like really big. A three shaku blade (35.5 inches or so). For reference a typical katana is about 24 inches. Musashi would have been at a significant reach disadvantage, so he carved the boat's oar to be a wooden sword 43 inches long. Giving him the reach advantage.

    -The genie possibly turned him into a puppet (the one episode where he mentioned the genie tricking you even if you phrase something just right)
    -The jelly beans in the coveted cup given to the episode’s history master turns them into a puppet, but the ones in his book bag do not (Black Death episode - Steven and Ryan both take beans and eat them on camera, although that was the first episode so lore may not count there)

      That’s a puppet you can order. My local theatre used the same exact puppet as Gary Coleman in Avenue Q.
