Items in anime that the main characters never use

Pretty sure the smaller swords are solely for samurai to commit sudoku. The traditional way.

The wakizashi is for prying open locked treasure chests.

Tanto is for Sudoku, Wakizashi is emergency weapon, Katana is for status, Naginata is the true samurai weapon.

>samurai carried around a sword dedicated to the sole purpose of helping them commit suicide
Why is Japan such a fucked up country?

>>161788840
Dunno, but they really are. I never will understand how people can think suicide, even as a means of "atonement", is somehow honorable. Kinda ruins the samurais' image in my mind; I used to think they were like the Japanese version of western knights, but western knights would never commit sudoku, IIRC.

Leorio's knife

Why didnt Mugen use his fist blade thing when he gave up his sword in the last fight? Should i just assume he never actually learned it and the episode never happened.

But they are the Jap version of western knights, moron.

It really wasn't, the smaller sword on his waist is for use in small areas or in the case when he can't use the larger one.

And the really small ones like what Fuu has is usually either for self defense by civillians or for sudoku.

Honorable suicide isn't nearly as much of a thing in the west as it is in japan.

>suicide is the defining aspect of knighthood and samurai
>Not all the other fucking similarities they share together

You sure you're not retarded?

How the hell his hair suddenly become that long?

>>161788923
During the middle ages, suicide was considered a grave sin. However, among certain European cultures of the modern period suicide regarding matters of honour was more common. Prussian Junckers for example would quite regularly kill themselves if they had lost their honour, often shooting themselves in the head with a pistol.

Not sure how I feel about the ending, I keep feeling like I was missing some message along the way. Also what the fuck was that quarry episode? Weird mushrooms?

Yea bad mushroom trip. Until sometime around 2003-ish you could go to store around tokyo and buy psychedelic shrooms legally. It wasn't until a store accidentally stocked the wrong shroom that they were banned.
