More data?
Does anyone have any more data on this sword? Yatanogarasu 03:28, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Appearance
In the series was never mentioned, but in chapter 96 and episode 48 Tashigi beats up two guys with a sword that isn't Shigure. Since we know that Yamaoroshi was confiscated by Tashigi at Rogue Town is it possible that is in fact that sword? Rather, it's pretty obvious that it is, (it was even wrapped in a cloth like it wasn't Tashigis's own sword) but the point is: we assume that the two swords are the same or we just point this out as trivia?

I think it's safe to say that's Yamaoroshi. 20:08, July 22, 2012 (UTC)

No. It was a substitute sword of Ipponmatsu. (chapter97, vol.11 p.133) --Klobis (talk) 08:55, July 23, 2012 (UTC)

Where did it say that it was a loaner sword? It never mentions how she got it at all. 15:56, July 23, 2012 (UTC)

Probably a mistranslation on the scanlator-of-the-time's behalf. 02:06, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

I own the volume this chapter was in, and it doesn't mention anything about a loaner sword either, though. 02:28, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

You mean the English dub (VIZ) version? 04:42, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I also know people who have the raw of the same volume and this part about a loaner sword never came up before. 04:44, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

The answer's more likely to come from the Loguetown novel rather than the chapters, since the manga skipped over so much. Tashigi dropped off Shigure at Ippon-Matsu's for polishing, so he might have given her another sword as a temporary replacement until it was ready, but there's no explicit proof in the chapter as far as I can tell.

Ippon-Matsu did tell to leave the sword and get out in my volume, but it was when she was fumbling around with a bunch of them on a display rack, so he could have meant "stop messing around" or something like that, but she doesn't leave another sword there. She didn't even have one going in. 05:29, July 24, 2012 (UTC)
