Many have pondered why a dark divinity with roots in northern mythology would wield a blade with a decidedly Far Eastern name. A popular theory is that Odin acquired the blade upon slaying an Auri warrior who was the first ever to notch his theretofore unsullied plate.
That text (Also our first in game mention of the Au Ra by name) implies Odin was a thing before Zantetsuken sorta possessed his form though.
