SAMURAI SHOWDOWN

[Alacran]

To me the fantasy of the Swordsmen was more about facing your adversary eye to eye. The drawing of the blade, the salute or nod, the settling in to the stance, the breath held waiting for the first strike. The long sword Ninja some people seem to want makes little sense to me. When I think of Samurai i remember the tales of Musashibō Benkei, and Tadakatsu Honda. Two samurai that basically Tanked armies for their lords.While they were not regarded for their sword skill, their martial skill was as legendary as their loyalty and honor. (seriously Benkei pulled of a Cuchulain in real life)

And yes Log Horizon is one of my favorite anime, love they way they break down in game nuances.
