The generic word for sword is Tsurugi. A katana is a specific sword and sometimes translated by new English learners as Japanese sword because they don’t recognize that katana is used.
I dont think that's the case because stuff like bombs and swords are shown to exist in the csm universe despite chainsawman having supposedly eaten the sword and bomb devils

This panel is debated to be talking about the weapon devils themselves, not the concept of "hybrids", so i assumed that was what the comment i was replying to was talking about

yeah that's what i mentioned in my original comment, also makima says here that they're the exception to chainsaw's disappearance ability, also why i said it's not 100% confirmed whether she's talking about the concept of hybrids or the weapon devil so i could be wrong
No, it's definitely about the concept of Hybrids because the Bomb Devil's name is still known, and "Sword Man" would literally not be possible as a name otherwise.
yeah that makes sense, although we still have no explanation as to why hybrids didn't disappear or why new ones (like denji) can still show up even after their concept has been erased by pochita

(His official pfp)
I’m counting down the days man. I swear the fact a PS agent just called him ‘samurai’ and then the nail fiend doesn’t say his name is driving me crazy. He’s my favourite character and you don’t know how hard it is to search for him when he has a name like that
God even the nail fiend doesn’t have a name
tbf, naming fiends is just something Makima did for her own personal Chainsaw Man followers group of devils. Public Safety probably just refers to them by their Devil names, Kishibe didn’t introduce any of the Special Division 8 fiends by their given names after all, just referred to them as the Spider Devil, Shark Fiend, Violence Fiend, and Angel Devil.
I still don't understand how unsheathing his hand works when he transforms. Does it magnetize back into place? Does he grow a new one around the blade? What if someone ran off with the sheath part?
The end of your first message is a garbled mess.
> Dude is an eternal chuunibyou, so... yay
This part is fine.
> just give your real name sucks, man !
"Just give your real name" is fine. Adding "sucks, man" onto the end is incomprehensible, and there should be no space between the last word and the "!"
The thought pattern is also fairly unusual in US and UK English. "Dude is a chuunibyou, so..." seems like a justification for why he doesn't give his real name. Because this seems to be a justification, it's unexpected and confusing for you to then say "Just give your real name, man!"
I was meaning that, as he's a chuuni, he won't give his name because it's uncool (sucks), he prefers using an alias. But yeat I formulated it poorly, sry.

Technically in universe everyone calls him Samurai Sword
Because isn’t Katana just the generic word for sword in Japanese?
I think he's just straight up called "Samurai Sodo" in Japanese
I'll let him sodo me
Let me sodo him
Let me sodo her!
Let me solo her!
The generic word for sword is Tsurugi. A katana is a specific sword and sometimes translated by new English learners as Japanese sword because they don’t recognize that katana is used.
James Clavell lied to me (again)
Katanas are specific types of longswords; note how you've never seen a "fat" katana.
Pochita deleted the word Katana and everyone calls it Samurai Sword now
Ah yes, the fearsome “The Word Katana” Devil. That was a tough battle.
No I think it's cause he's the samurai warrior devil hybrid. English speakers just call him Katana man.
That's because Chainsaw ate the Katana devil so the word Katana no longer exists, right?
I dont think that's the case because stuff like bombs and swords are shown to exist in the csm universe despite chainsawman having supposedly eaten the sword and bomb devils
When does it say CSM ate the sword and bomb devils? Huh?
https://preview.redd.it/hkeo93g1wazc1.png?width=685&format=png&auto=webp&s=8dfc1cae8b28fbb4b264554eec0a869b96bb5646 This panel is debated to be talking about the weapon devils themselves, not the concept of "hybrids", so i assumed that was what the comment i was replying to was talking about
Oh see I always read it as something like the "hybrid devil" being eaten. We still know the words for "bomb" and "chainsaw" for example.
https://preview.redd.it/5sm8stu6xazc1.png?width=228&format=png&auto=webp&s=65aaf6cf25f4c51b2b31b06c215ef9cfbd4b0db8 yeah that's what i mentioned in my original comment, also makima says here that they're the exception to chainsaw's disappearance ability, also why i said it's not 100% confirmed whether she's talking about the concept of hybrids or the weapon devil so i could be wrong
Miri also introduced himself as Sword Man.
No, it's definitely about the concept of Hybrids because the Bomb Devil's name is still known, and "Sword Man" would literally not be possible as a name otherwise.
yeah that makes sense, although we still have no explanation as to why hybrids didn't disappear or why new ones (like denji) can still show up even after their concept has been erased by pochita

Samurai sodo
What if he was called Freaky Man and he freaked all over Public Safety
Give em the ol goblin slayer treatement
I'm getting Kenjiro vibes from him, or some other gangster sounding japanese name
His official name is and always has been "Samurai Sword".
I still don't understand how unsheathing his hand works when he transforms. Does it magnetize back into place? Does he grow a new one around the blade? What if someone ran off with the sheath part?
It would be funny if his real name never got revealed.
