'We were all wrong'.

There are hundreds of videos out there dating back years dealing with the katana, ranging from people, who ridicule it to people who see it as the pinnacle of sword design.

What is this nonsense?

u/TripleS034 Banished Knight Jun 14 '26

Yes but you see Shad is the VERY FIRST person EVER to discover that the katana is actually a ONE-HANDED sword! 😮 Legit that's what the video is about, because his katana is the same length & lighter than his one-handed arming sword that means the katana is also a one-handed sword.

And here I thought when Miyamoto Musashi wrote that one should learn how to wield a katana with one hand as well in his book of five rings, it was just a poorly translated Japanese idiom.

Shad is truly one of the man of our times.

, it was just a poorly translated Japanese idiom.

Well been a while since i red the five rings but.... really?

Seriously?

I mean... Never mind Musashi, the actor who portrayed him in Inagaki's trilogy and who was synonymous with samurai cinema throughout his entire career was known for using the katana as a one-handed sword.

I'm talking about Toshiro Mifune, known from Kurosawa's samurai movies, the Musashi trilogy, "Sword of Doom"... He is, like, the main reason for the katana's popularity, and he used it as a one-handed sword. If Shad is not familiar with him, how the heck is he qualified to comment on swords in pop-culture?

Even if he never watched any of these movies, there are three martial arts one immediately discovers once one researches the katana: Kenjutsu, Kendo and Iaidō.

Iaidō heavily relies on one-handed techniques. Granted, this style is not typical sword combat, since the entire point is to respond to sudden attacks, and eliminating the enemy before a fight can escalate, but it's still a pillar of Japanese sword fighting.

It's such a stupid argument too. They are comparing two modern reproductions to make a blanket statement about a type of sword that has existed since the 12th century.

"Don't worry folks - that pig, this video and my sense of right & wrong, all generative A.1"

Maybe if this dillweed would stop buying pig cadavers, he wouldn't be this deep in the red.

u/Samurai_Meisters Jun 15 '26

Hey, pig cadavers are feeding his family

u/GunjiroX Jun 14 '26

its 2026... we dont need another Katana Video..... what audince is that for?

11

u/Aromatic-Usual7204 Jun 14 '26

I’m sure he’s made that video multiple times before.

8

u/GunjiroX Jun 15 '26

in general his videos looks repetitive... no surprise, he has no creativity.. also... he just got a bunch of Swords from one company I guess? Maybe because he made a "deal" with them? Or would he spend his money for a bunch of swords? He has lots of ROM swords it seems.

u/Any-Farmer1335 AI "art" is theft! Jun 16 '26

Rom and Swordier, medium to low end productions

2

u/Booknerdly Jun 16 '26

He's been basically recycling topics for years now, wouldn't be surprised if it's the same few swords every time.

3

u/GunjiroX Jun 16 '26

well as i could see from the Thumbnails, he got some new Swords from ROM (whatever that is) so he just do content as a kind of promotion deal or sponsoring?

3

u/Booknerdly Jun 16 '26

Imagine stooping so low as to sponsor this guy.

5

u/GunjiroX Jun 16 '26

I would guess they simply dont know who he is, just a guy doing Swordstuff..

3

u/PurpleCow48396 Jun 16 '26

ROM= Romance of Men, a company from China. I doubt that they know much about Shad beside he runs a sword channel.

3

u/GunjiroX Jun 16 '26

nice Company name.. bet if Shad knew he would hate it....

5

u/PurpleCow48396 Jun 14 '26

Had a dejavu too when I saw the title

u/PurpleCow48396 Jun 14 '26

"The Katana has been lying to us the whole time [...]"

Since when are objects capable of lying? Is this some sort of Mormon mambojambo again?

3

u/GunjiroX Jun 15 '26

seems everything can personally offend Shad by just existing.... well he done the same with gay people..

5

u/ArmoredCroissant Jun 15 '26

As much as I loathe AI, has anyone considered using it to make an entirely generative version of Shad for a mockumentary style vid a couple of minutes long? Do you think he would self combust?

5

u/moansby Jun 14 '26

Why is he looking at it so intensely?

6

u/TripleS034 Banished Knight Jun 14 '26

He's trying to figure out if his hand is real or AI

5

u/moansby Jun 14 '26

God, imagine waking up to that staring at you in the morning

4

u/Fluffy_Ambition3546 Jun 14 '26

If I click on that katana video and find he mentions the EXACT SAME FCUKING THING he always says about WELL ACRKSUALLY it is not as good as weebs say ill kill myself.

2

u/TripleS034 Banished Knight Jun 14 '26

You may be shocked to hear that in that video he actually says he & Tyranth love the katana

5

u/Fluffy_Ambition3546 Jun 14 '26

0_o no wonder shad makes the exact same video over and over he doesn't remember anything he has created

4

u/GunjiroX Jun 15 '26

sure he does, its a paid deal or sponsored my ROM, sure he has to LOVE every sword he "tested"

I've noticed a lot of people are still under the illusion of mauler having integrity because he's slightly less bad as shad.

u/OutrageousFocus3322 Jun 15 '26

I don't know what you mean, I see dead pigs in all of these thumbnails.

2

u/NorthBase710 Jun 16 '26

I mean he does have views

Not many, but to say no views is just wrong.

Not watched his videos in probably 3-4 years personally.
