Monsieur Kubota

Mr. Kubota studies the Turritopsis dohrnii, also known as Immortal Jellyfishes, with the purpose of discovering how humans can live forever.
Mr. Kubota is searching for eternity, because at the end of the day he is terribly afraid to die. And so he decided that he would not die at all.
