>Kuwabara kuwabara
what did he mean by this?
"Kuwabara kuwabara" (桑原桑原?) is a phrase used in the Japanese language to ward off lightning. It is analogous to the English phrase "knock on wood" to prevent bad luck.
The word kuwabara literally means 'mulberry field'. According to one explanation, there is a Chinese legend that mulberry trees are not struck by lightning. In contrast, Joya asserts that the "origin of kuwabara is not definitely known, but it has nothing to do with mulberry plants, though it means 'mulberry fields
Its a Japanese saying, it's meant to protect you from lightning strikes.The one time he doesn't say it before a storm he gets struck by lightning

" the English phrase "knock on wood" to prevent bad luck."
..that's what knock on wood meant? I thought people just said it as a figure of speech before or after they say something very obvious.

You would say it after saying you might come into danger or something like that, "The only way I won't get this promotion is if I get struck by lightning (knock on wood)."

>Knocking on wood refers to the apotropaic tradition in Western folklore of literally touching, tapping, or knocking on wood, or merely stating that you are doing or intend same, in order to avoid "tempting fate" after making a favorable observation, a boast, or declaration concerning one's own death or other unfavorable situation beyond one's control. The origin of this may be in Germanic folklore, wherein dryads are thought to live in trees, and can be invoked for protection.[1][2]
