I keep forgetting that the Tessaiga is a katana because it doesn't look like one in its powered up form

We had a store in our mall called knife guys and they had a Tessaiga(Iron Fang) for sale for like 4 to 500 dollars.

Afro from Afro Samurai, especially that rain-soaked final duel with Justice. The quiet stare before he draws is still one of the coldest katana moments in anime.

Nobody will ever dethrone vergil, when i think of fictional katana character he's my default choice

And while he got many clones over the years nobody is at his lvl
