Past

Trivia

  • The Ame no Habakiri (天羽々斬あめのはばきり, Ame no Habakiri?, literally meaning "Snake-Slayer of Heaven/Takamagahara") is one of the most famous Totsuka no Tsurugi, appearing in Japanese mythology as a blade used by the Shinto god Susanoo to slay the legendary monster serpent Yamata no Orochi. "Haba" (羽々?) is an archaic term for "big snake" (orochi).
    • Beside its legendary status, it is a real sword, being enshrined as the shintai of Isonokami Shrine.
  • In Chapter 920 and Episode 893 a flashback of Oden is seen wielding a sword with a different tsuba. Whether this is a mistake or another sword is unknown.
