the problem with Katanas they are just for show, and most people cant use a Katana if their lives depended on it, and big broad swords just rely on strength so a big person could smack the katana out of your hands(and your smile will go with the katana) and as for dodging, blocking with a sword is a useful thing, and against fast, nimble peoplemaybe a concealed gun or dagger would help

who likes crono?

Dante...I like you,but Im pagan, so...please don't.

Ahh, who in the hell can possibly NOT use a katana?
It's not hard, just make sure you swing the blade-end toward the guy who's supposed to die. Much easier than Tennis...

big chunky maces

I prefer the weapons such as swords and sabers they use in the Medieval Era.

As I said, Raipers, Katanas and Spatula's..oh no akane-kun's at it again!heh..i gotta find a place to download some Ranma1/2 subs and dubs..

how about boiling water? best weapon that god has provided us with. throw some boiling water on your ass and you AREN'T getting up.

Lmao, i'd get up and beat the **** outta ya with a baseball bat or spatula..its the kinda jackass I am.

really? with all those third degree burns and your blood vessels bursting all over you? sorry, but if you were to even make an attempt to fight back, i'd backhand you before you even came near with your ***** ass weapons.

*****-ass?!What j00 talkin' 'bout, foo'?It takes a real man to use a katana, a bigger man to kill someone with a spatula..then again, it takes a jackass to beat you the hell down with a baseball bat.

the only noticeably good thing about the katana is that is easy to slash with because thats all their really made for, they can slash and hack, are crap! if I went into battle Id have my handy bastard sword and a dagger(hidden) and maybe a glock if I was losing =)

this is turning into a horrible thread
