Dream Blades: Musashi

The Dream Blades: Musashi (夢刀・六三四, Mujin: Musashi, Dream Blades: Six Three Fourths, localized as Mucro Somnio: Musashi) is an Arch-Enemy Event Weapon with the shape of a pair of kodachis, one stored in each end of the sheath. This weapon is wielded by Jūbei.

Information

Nine used a part of Takemikazuchi’s core to create Musashi specifically for the beastman, Jūbei.

Musashi’s blade can cut straight through things that cannot normally be cut. After the Great Dark War, its core was released, but Jūbei continues to use it.

Trivia

• It seems to be named after Musashi no Ken, a Japanese sports manga series that focuses on kendo, and its protagonist, Musashi Natsuki (夏木六三四, Natsuki Musashi)
  • It is also somewhat named after Miyamoto Musashi, an expert Japanese swordsman, who became renowned through stories of his excellent and unique double-bladed swordsmanship.
    • Also to add to this, two of his attacks (one of his specials and his Exceed Accel) are named after Musashi’s ring motif; the latter in particular borrows from his famous “Book of Five Rings”.
• Despite being read as “Mujin”, the kanji for “jin” is that for “tō/katana” instead.
