Anyway, that "Slug beats snake > snake beats frog > frog beats slug" is from this:

Mushiken was played with the snake, frog and slug symbols. Snake (thumb) beat frog (index finger), which beat slug (ring finger), and slug beat snake. Mushiken was a children's game, whereas shouyaken was played after brief dancing and singing, accompanied by the samisen, by adults in their tatami rooms.
