I suppose the kanji is trustworthy too. 21:25, July 31, 2013 (UTC)
 * Wait, I don't see the sword whereabouts in the first link. Talks about something becoming a new Shichibukai... that's it. 21:27, July 31, 2013 (UTC)

according to the article it is also named in SBS volume 71 and this is the post gal is referring to

I meant the second article, the SBS screenshot. 23:49, July 31, 2013 (UTC)

According tothis site, the SBS translation about the sword is the following:

R: What is the name of Law’s sword? How many tattoos does Law have!? Odacchi… Please draw all of Law’s tattoo! (>_<)

O: All right, I got it— Well then, from my sketch notes [points to tattoo] He has slightly strange heart tattoos. I wonder if there’s a reason for that? The name of his katana is Kikoku [hard to read, but the kanji is made of ‘demon and laughter’ - This is confusing because I read it 鬼笑 as kishou but the furigana has koku at the end] [can’t read this part because it’s blurry] It’s a youtou [demon sword, possessed sword]

Copy pasted this dialogue from the AP forum discussion.

Ranked Blade?
At beginning it says "It is a cursed sword, and it is not a ranked blade." I understand the cursed part but what does it mean by ranked? Should I change that to meito?--Haru3173 (talk) 15:24, January 7, 2014 (UTC)
