Maybe something with similar damage/delay to current topend 119 shuriken but w/ "Throwing skill +269" and high r.acc could work though? If the only damage increase was due to fewer misses, then I wouldn't think that it would be enough to require adjusting the katanas themselves maybe? Add some defensive/caster stats to each to give them a purpose (eva/meva, macc/FastCast, mdb/def, and mab/INT sound like decent pairings to me) while avoiding the issues of increasing physical damage output.
But the OP never asked for ridiculous stats, it'd basically be pretty much the same as the current best shuriken, only instead of you getting 1 and only using it for Dakan you'd get 99 and might get use out of Sange.

So with the greatest of respect to the SE staff I disagree with their reasoning.
