Kusanagi (Manga)

  • Name: Kusanagi Sword: Long Sword of the Heavens (草薙の剣・空の太刀, Kusanagi no Tsurugi: Kū no Tachi, English TV: Grass Long Sword)
  • Type: B-rank, Offensive, Short to mid-range (0-10m)
  • Users: Orochimaru

The Kusanagi Sword: Long Sword of the Heavens is the Kusanagi of Japanese legend. Orochimaru retrieves his Kusanagi by opening his mouth and extending a snake which then opens its mouth and produces the sword. Orochimaru was seen producing the sword handle first so he could use it freely, or blade first to attack his oppoenent instantly. The sword can extend its blade to attack from afar and it can cut through almost anything. The Kusanagi appears differently from the manga to the anime. In the manga, the Kusanagi looks more like a standard katana, while in the anime its a guardless, double-edged jian.

Sasuke Uchiha refers to the chokuto he carries as a "Sword of Kusanagi", but it carries none of the unique attributes that Orochimaru's does.
