Kid nearly lopped an arm off another kid with a samurai sword. Guess he was bullied and he lost his shit one day. Kid with the sword got help, and the kid who got cut didn't lose an arm.
If I lived in a country with lax gun control, this would have been a much different situation.
Where does one casually get a samurai sword? Was he the hero of time?
Even in a Japanese setting, I didn't know you could just buy a katana out of nowhere and freely carry it around.
There were knife and souvenir shops in Spain that sold katanas. Don't think they were sharp but I always wanted to have one when we went there on vacation. But they were too expensive. But we did get some shuriken, nunchakus (I got some padded ones because I was the younger child) and a butterfly knife.
It has to be an authentic samurai sword since they’re kid of a national treasure. If not, there’s specific rules about transporting it to and from your dojo and stuff.
Source: got my shit help up in Japanese customs when I had a very NOT ahthentic katana in my household goods. Went 3 months without my stuff
For some reason my local thrift store had a few katanas and random other weeb tier weaponry at it.
Naturally my friend bought one.
I'd reckon from his parents, but I never saw the incident myself. You know kids in high school though. Spread a rumour and it catches like wildfire. I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually a machete.
