Hearing that Hidan's scythe is technically a functional weapon with some accurate features is uncomfy. This means I could potentially see someone use that in a fight, if I see it then I'm just gonna be recording for whenever they make that circle
It's more of war pick with 3 "teeth" rather than actual war scythes but yes. It would be effective. Not as effective as anything actually designed to work as a weapon instead of being fancy but yes.
What’s the difference? Well, the Talwar is of Indian descent while the Odachi is Japanese. While both are primarily slashing weapons, the talwar was favored by Calvary men while the odachi was usually used for dick measuring.
@@brandoncastellano1858 The Odachi was also an anti-cavalry weapon used by infantry, but it fell out of use due to its unwieldiness and costs to make one, and was replaced by the Nagamaki.
Actually just finished that arc in naruto, hidan’s weapon is actually meant for just bleeding the enemy, that’s why there’s so much surface to hit people with, and why the rope is there.
One thing to mention about Hidan’s scythe is the way he uses it, he doesn’t actually use it to kill the enemy, but just scratch them to get a drop of their blood,to activate his ritual.
I don't watch much anime but that scythe design looks like it could be used in some very creative ways so if I ever saw a dude coming at me with that thing I would be in the hills😂
He does in fact use it in a very creative way. The scythe is connected to a very long steel cable, which he tugs and maneuvers the scythe in the air with, so you never know how it’s gonna move or what direction it will come from. He also doesn’t actually try to kill anything with the scythe, his main objective is just to injure you even slightly so he can get a drop of your blood, then he uses the victims blood to link himself with them, so any damage he takes the victim also takes. He’s also immortal, so any damage done to him is harmless, so once he’s linked with someone all he has to do is stab himself in the heart and shows over. Man I love Hidan, such a cool character
@@chainer1918 Just from what you have described, that sounds like some stuff straight out of DnD to be honest and I'm absolutely loving it! Like I said before I don't watch much anime but even simple things like wondering how that fictional weapon would be maneuvered makes me want to watch whatever show this is from, especially with the lore that has already been presented in the previous comment.
Fun fact, Durandal is actually a top tier blade in the DxD universe, being able to cut anything at all, which is a perfect match for Xenovia, since she isn’t that smart…

The scythe one was noted in universe as being unorthodox and unweildy, but used it largely for fear and the guy was immortal so he didn't have to worry about being killed due to bad choices.
Always a good thing to see magi getting some respect out here Although that is the sword used with ba’la’lark’s djin weapon equip, it’s not alibaba’s default weapon, now that’s a weapon that I’d really like to see you break down
Oh hey, thanks for covering Sabre and Afro’s swords! Theyre some of my favorite swords in anime. Can you cover Feitan’s sword from HxH? His umbrella sword thing
What also bumps up Hidan's weapon is he isn't really aiming to deal a lot of damage with a strike from the scythes. He just needs to draw any amount of blood, at which point he uses his jutsu to finish off the opponent.
Even Xenovia herself said she can't fully control the blade too ! If it's that hard to wield in anime world, of course it's impossible to to wield in real life.
To be fair Hidan's "sword" has a special requirement: it doesn't need to cause deadly wounds, it just need to draw blood from the enemy, his ritualistic "jutsu" will finish the rest.
Hidan's scythe works better when you consider its purpose. Hidan stated during an episode that he only uses the scythe to hurt his opponent enough to collect some blood on the blade, so that he can make his ritual. It makes sense he would want a long, large weapon with multiple blades and great range, that can also be thrown and caught back. Maximum range at all times!
Could you take a look at the sword of the creator from Fire Emblem: Three Houses. This is because the sword of the creator is very interesting because it works not just as a regular sword but also the blades are segmented and can come apart with the sword then also working like that of a whip and giving the sword more range and also each of the segments has its own sharp "tooth" that could actually make it much more efficient in cutting or slicing at an opponent when used as a whip, making it much more efficient than many other whip swords I've seen. Now I don't know if this will impact your view on the sword of the creator but in the lore of the game it's actually made of Wyvern bones and in the lore of three houses it's said that these bones are more durable than "all materials other than crucible steel" with it also lasting for more than a thousand years ever since it's creation despite it's frequent and heavy usage in a nearly 100 year war. Also it has religious significance as this and several other weapons made by these same types of bones are said to have been creations of the goddess of creation (in the Three Houses Universe), Sothis.
The triple scythe from Naruto was stated to have been made an intentionally poor weapon, because the use for it was to harm the opponent and get their blood sample, the actual ritual killing was done by a telescopic spike
It's frustrating to see it being ignored that some swords shown are supposed to work differently in the anime, like just grazing or requiring super strength or having special properties
I love that you didn't just edit the picture over your recording, or maybe you did after lol, but you had to dodge the obnoxious picture in your way like "who put that there?!" 😂
So, actual weaponized scythes (war scythes) did not have the blade mounted as seen with Hidan's scythe thingy. They had the blade mounted much like a pole arm, so you could actually cut with the edge. These were super popular in Poland, to the point where their last recorded use was in WWII, where some militia took these scythes, killed Germans or Soviets with them and took their weapons
No one can tell you that you are wrong. Afro samurai is an anime. The source of the anime was a manga initially released in Japan and the anime was made by the anime studio Gonzo.
He should check out the sword art online swords. there is a few interesting ones. first of all, the red longsword with barbed hooks that was used to fake someone dying in a spawnzone. Second is the main characters sword, the elucidator. it is a longsword with a special type of handgaurd
The only grip I have with Hidan's scythe is having three parallel blades instead of one. Same with how Wolverine's claws fail as a katar from a functional perspective, each parallel blade divides the force between them. By having three parallel scythe blades instead of one, each only delivers a third of the total puncturing force imparted by the wielder. Plus having them aligned edge to spine the way they are blocks the cutting edges of the upper and middle blades. At best it would function great as a sword catcher.
Fun fact hidan’s scythe was used less for killing and more to gather blood for his ritual which was his main offensive ability. Also if you could pull off his ritual ability in storm 4 you are a pretty sick gamer
Whats interesting is if I recall correctly, hidans scythe is technically also a religious ritual tool [one of my favorite parts of narutos world building thats only briefly touched] so it makes some sense that it takes such a strange form to some extent at least
Hidan's sythe is meant for movent because what he can't do in strong killing blow attacks that arent in his ritual he makes up for in speed and maneuverability
Idk if you've seen the anime. If you have, then that makes this comment useless for the most part, but hidan uses his scythe as a ranged weapon at times. The rope that's attached to the sword can extend and retract, which he uses via throwing his scythe at his enemy to try and get any amount of blood he can onto the blade, due to him only needing a drop of your blood to win
I love how he just shakes his head at xenovia’s sword
I don't know why, it seems like at the very least a decent sword

Omg thx for adding magi. Its my fav anime

Didn't expect to see Magi on this channel
Gotta remember it was a popular series at a point
I mean, all Hidan's scythe needs do do is draw blood, not inflict a killing blow. His cursed jutsu will do the rest once he imbibes the blood.
Remember, most of these anime swords are either unobtanium metal or magically reinforced so being a bit thin in places doesn’t really matter.
What also bumps up Hidan's weapon is he isn't really aiming to deal a lot of damage with a strike from the scythes. He just needs to draw any amount of blood, at which point he uses his jutsu to finish off the opponent.
Even Xenovia herself said she can't fully control the blade too ! If it's that hard to wield in anime world, of course it's impossible to to wield in real life.
Yay Seiba made it in!

The reason Hidan has such a weird weapon is because it’s made for drawing even the smallest amount of blood instead of dealing a fatal blow
