Misa may be a relative to the medieval traveling actor. Play as a social regulative, or simply establishing the social order, which is now only present in stories and parts of stories until they are completely forgotten, had a great power of regulating the social phenomena, without hostility and through laughter and fun. It seems that the punishment was mild but effective. The scoop, used by the lead actor to supposedly feed Misa and lead it into comic situation, transcended from this comedy into a still-used saying in this region: “Be careful not to be tricked onto the scoop!”
