Specification document

It looks like fun, after all.

>>6

Hmm…

There are many people who will spend a lot of money on things that ended up being canceled.

If you are going to call yourself Yagyu, you should be more proficient in assessing swords.

In the end, I made something good, so I said “I’m sorry!”

As long as it’s by Monday.

>>28

When I was reading this paperback, I thought, “Is that their name…?”

>>12

*Later Yagyu Ienaka.

>>124

It’s after Yagyu Ienori!

>>146

It was no good.

It looks like the single-edged blade warped during heat treatment, which must have been quite troublesome.

Nuhuhu. Since I am the same person as that person, I have the ability to articulate it.

Sounds great! It’s really good, but just a little more! Please have it ready by Monday!

I like the punchline of this story.

Too caught up.

It feels just like this when I’m in a meeting with a terrible editor.

The demon’s knife is the last one after the image.

>>24

I feel like I was cutting and showing about three iron plates at once.

However, the sword should have always been at hand for self-defense in any situation, yet I must even entrust that.

Things like this are gradually getting smaller, aren’t they?

The story of how I became the strongest swordsmith after going through trial and error under a terrible employer -it’s too late to acknowledge it now!

I understand that it’s something you entrust your life to and that you have your reasons for being particular about it, but…

>>30

Look… we fought and killed each other a lot when we were young…

It’s not much more than a paperweight, but I might as well use it as a storage knife, I suppose.

When I tried using it, it was a terrifying coincidence because I almost got assassinated.

Will even young teachers become unable to understand the goodness of things as they age…?

Even when getting older, will I still be attacked…?

Once I tried it, it felt so perfect in my hand! I must have gotten so hyper that I lost track after exchanging messages too many times.

Did Asano Takuminokami also use a wakizashi?

Intelligence declines with age.

It’s quite a unique shape, so you can really feel the trial and error when you see the actual object.

The stories about the sword shop that are often posted here provide straightforward and clear explanations, which creates a contrast.

>>43

It’s a request saying “I want the best side sword after clearing that, of course!”

I feel like I’ve finally reached the secret technique because of this demon’s knife incident, so Kobon-san is really humble.

Because I’ve seen them in their youth.

I feel like as I get older, I just don’t have the opportunity to kill people anymore…

It was really good when I tried cutting it!

Are you insisting on a wakizashi instead of a katana?!

>>47

A regular sword is usually left with someone else when meeting important people, but a short sword is always kept close to the body, so that’s where the focus lies, according to the young teacher’s theory.

>>47

It doesn’t mean that I’m not particular about my katana.

If the status is different

I can’t even say, “Just try battling with that once…”

It’s all about how you use a sword, after all.

Punishment

Ren’ya Sai is also under a lot of pressure here…

When I realized it was a famous sword that would elevate my skills, I shed tears.

Since it’s a standalone, it doesn’t clearly connect to that work…

If it were just something that was easy to use, it wouldn’t have become this troublesome.

This is about wanting to refine this to a level where I can go meet the great general of the world, while also maximizing its practicality, so it’s a difficult request to make.

Well, if it’s the young master, he is strong even with bare hands…

Young teacher, is it going to be such a troublesome customer…

Are you going to chase them on horseback and apologize while they are running away at night?

I’m glad they didn’t resort to suicide, considering that abandoning the domain at that time would have been a serious crime and they could have been captured.

>>59

It seems that I was not running away at night, but rather that I was on my way back to Owari after resigning normally.

However, it’s quite embarrassing that the young teacher, who dislikes riding, went so far as to chase after me on horseback.

I was thinking that it’s a waste to remake so many swords, and then I found one in a storehouse of a house in Sayama City.

The sword that was rejected was probably stored instead of being discarded, and it was likely mass-produced too.

It’s like ordering a picture that says you can only masturbate with this one from now on.

There are things you only understand once you try to pull it out.

Even the greatest masters grow old… you know.

I wonder if this swordsmith is doing this for a salary…

If I have to work without pay until I’m hired, it would be hell.

>>64

If you make a sword that you’re not satisfied with and just pay for it, you’ll end up doing careless work.

Hmm, not quite…

Whoa, what an amazing sword… I’m going to make it a family heirloom.

What I’m saying is, what’s missing is…

It meant that they hadn’t killed anyone yet.

>>67

I thought it was a bit cold that the blacksmith had such a lukewarm reaction while cutting the brush used for calligraphy right in front of me.

>>67

If I actually cut down the burglar who broke in, that would be really great! Sorry! That’s the story…

I was a bit surprised that this was from Young Sensei because he was more specific when choosing a sword at the shop…

>>68

Well, the response might change depending on whether it’s a sword shop on the trip or a swordsmith on retainer…

>>68

That is clearly a requirement where it should be over 80 points.

I don’t know how many points this is, but get it as close to 100 points as possible.

So it’s completely different.

I was saying it was 95 points, but it turned out to be 100 points.

What can be understood from this story is that if you let something be redone 5 to 6 times, it can become a masterpiece.

It means that if the deliverables are repeatedly returned, the quality will improve.

I mean, this person is just doing their job, so they’re not being bullied or anything.

In the end, if one cannot cut down a person, can a famous sword still be considered a famous sword?

>>74

It may sound harsh, but in Taihei’s world, it seems we can’t determine anything without Yamada Asaoemon, who executes criminals…

>>109

If you give money to Asahiemon, you can have a corpse cut up, so if you want, you can try it yourself.

Because you get scolded if it gets found out, what became popular as a substitute was makiwara.

>>129

In the work of the thread image, the change of heart was based on the feel of using it when fighting an opponent who comes to kill, so I don’t think it would have worked for human dismemberment tests.

>>109

Mr. Yamada is allowed to work part-time testing the sharpness of famous swords on the bodies of criminals… He even issues a warranty for swords that can cut through seven bodies (the sharpness of a sword that can sever seven people).

Did you pay for all the bad ones?

>>76

Since I am a company employee, I have a fixed salary.

>>76

It’s not that you’re hiring for a certain amount per item, but rather you’re paying them a good salary to hire them.

>>77

That’s true, but after eliminating all the reasons for criticism, I no longer know what else to do.

There’s still something missing… so those who are creating it become completely at a loss.

It’s easy to say, “Make the best product!” but the person placing the order has never really seen the truly best product before.

I don’t know anything specific, so if you say that there is nothing that can be done, then that’s true.

Perhaps it’s not about sharpness, but rather seeking whether it feels comfortable as an extension of the hand…

Cutting three paperweights is like, hmm…

>>79

For that matter, to mention the durability and beauty of the sword is rather presumptuous…

>>89

At this time, I am the best sword master in Japan.

Know your place.

I have knowledge of swords and when it comes to using them, I’m unmatched.

It’s a request to create the best masterpiece we’ve ever had.

Is it tough to be criticized? Yeah.

>>81

It’s difficult because the person making the request doesn’t know how to obtain what they asked for.

>>92

Is it a knife skeb?

Stylish and practical one.

If you’re going to follow someone, it’s not just about having a position that is above others or someone else doing it for you; it’s more about chasing after them yourself and apologizing, which is quite a situation that throws away pride and social appearances.

>>85

I haven’t apologized.

Is it Dave?

It’s a common thing in character evaluations for mobile games and such.

When looking at the thumbnail specs, it seems really mediocre, but when you actually use it, it’s super strong! That’s the kind of person who does a total turnaround.

From now on, it would be better to bring a sword along with sending out an assassin.

Until I put on the casing, it felt lacking… but once the casing was on, it looks really good! That seems to happen quite a bit.

I searched for “wakizashi,” but I was surprised to find that townspeople were allowed to possess wakizashi.

Even though they carried a jutte, being a policeman was probably a life-or-death job.

>>94

It’s an era where there are no security buzzers and no way to make emergency calls.

Security is the era of military power.

It’s the young teacher giving criticism, so I can’t outright deny it…

I definitely don’t want to work together.

When you gradually fix things from a really bad state, it’s quite common that the negative impression doesn’t fade no matter how long it takes.

I don’t really understand it well, but for now, if I just keep putting it out, the quality will keep going up!

I really dislike bosses like that…

>>99

The subordinate ran away.

I prayed that when a better outcome was achieved through a similar process, it would not become a successful experience.

That nonsense about Ren’ya-sai, who is exceptionally strong, mastering the secrets of wrist flexibility and counter techniques!! It’s not just a matter of turning things around; it’s a cause for celebration!

>>101

Even if I’m seriously angry, if I saw someone like that young teacher, I think I would forgive them.

That being said, I won’t forget it.

>>112

Well, I can only think that this is what a genius is like.

>>112

As mentioned earlier, if a high-ranking government official personally comes after me and says that the evaluation at that time was wrong and that I did a good job…

Because it’s a fixed salary, I can keep doing it, but if I’m not hired, I’ll end up being an old man who can never complete the sword, so my apprentice is angry.

The jutte serves more as a form of identification, signifying that there are samurai behind me, rather than as a weapon.

In a gag manga, designs that are completely playful come out midway.

Well, in the end, the family treasure of Owari Yagyu was completed…

>>106

Moreover, if they can mass-produce it, one could modestly say that the swordsmith Mitsuyasu seems to be one of the greatest genius masters of the Edo period.

If it’s for you, I guess I’ll get paid even if I have to remake it, right?

>>110

It’s like a publisher that gives a signing bonus to a manga artist but doesn’t give the go-ahead for serialization…?

Basically, that thing about Princess Peach.

Usually, once you reach this position, you don’t get attacked anymore.

I don’t know what the feel of the sword is like…

Several people came and did something.

With the retirement, the bandits are…? That’s odd.

I hear that sword making is done tirelessly, day and night…

Thank you, Edo Yagyu…

Well, I can say this because I hold a position that allows me to.

I should have prepared an assassin for a test cut instead of a paperweight.

>>121

You let the thief go, didn’t you?

https://web.archive.org/web/20150416035916/https://www.rekishijin.jp/rekishijinnews/a15-0224-2/

At first, it’s kind of not quite there… It doesn’t feel comfortable in my hands either…

I thought so, but after using it properly just once, it’s seriously the best partner ever!

There are often times when things turn out to be different from the first impression, so I can’t trust it.

Could it be that this blacksmith sent the assassin…?

>>127

It’s not like we can afford to send an assassin when the teacher, who isn’t young, hasn’t even made a name for themselves yet!

>>150

I guided.

Dying will relieve my frustrations.

If you live, the sword will be valued.

Possibly

It’s said to be one of the secret swords, but I keep it close at hand because I use it when attacked by bandits at night.

Because I’m employed, I can receive money.

Still, it’s frustrating as a craftsman when people don’t understand the quality of the swords I make.

It’s not like they’re withholding payment or anything, so they must be receiving their wages.

It’s something you wear when meeting people of the highest rank, so you just go to great lengths to be particular about it, and it’s not like you’re constantly being demanded to be selfish.

It’s a story about how even the greatest masters may not have the discerning eye…

I understood it after using it!

I understand that you won’t know until you actually try killing someone.

I think you’re already losing if you assume you can face swords and spears with just a side sword.

>>135

This person actually gets things done…

>>135

I won!

>>135

…It’s Young Sensei, you know?

It’s not about appearances or gestures; it’s really about how it performs in practice…

>>137

If you’re not careful, you might die…

If you think about it, asking to evaluate a tool without actually using it is really an unreasonable request.

Well, it’s a weapon for killing people, so it can’t be helped.

I’ve only seen this place, so I’ve only heard what Nameless said about what happens next.

If I try using the prototype, I think everything will be amazing.

The criteria for evaluation, which states that it should be beautiful in appearance and suitable for the occasion, is just difficult.

So, does that mean the human body can also be sliced with just movement?

>>147

The straw roll and the human torso are nearly the same.

Aren’t we already losing by demanding combat power from a side sword?

>>148

If you say something like that in extreme terms, this person can win even by disarming the opponent’s sword without any weapons…

>>148

Did you win?

It’s cool how you can slice five rolls at once, even though it doesn’t really make sense since there wouldn’t actually be five enemies lined up like that.

Hmm, this is it, isn’t it?

It’s like, how should I put it, the center of gravity is too well-aligned, or it’s too much as ordered, or something like that.

It looks samurai-like but not overly so, prioritizing practicality while also being playful, suitable for appearing before a shogun, yet can be used for everyday purposes.

Even after saying it this specifically, I still don’t understand why I can’t get what I hope for.

Could you please try submitting three types first thing on Monday morning?

>>156

Moomle

The straw mat and bamboo are substitutes for meat and bones.

I’m scared, young teacher…

I feel down thinking that the young teacher might become a burden in the future, so I hope it remains a different world.

>>161

At the time of young sensei, you were struggling for several hours just to buy one sword!

“Ah, it’s a Tengu!” or “Jisuke, punishment!” or “Please stop with the jokes!” You were using the original image for that meme, right?

>>166

Speaking of which, I was really picky and uninterested in buying a ready-made sword…

Making that without any machines in this era is seriously going to shock even the dwarves.

The gunsmith that appears in Golgo is excellent…

To call this an old geezer is a lack of comprehension.

“I can win against naginata and Owari Kankyu spear techniques at fixed dimensions.”

I even defeated the unbeatable matchlock.

You don’t need to make a special request; the Yagyu family is always accommodating.

Hey? Edo Yagyu-san

Even though Kobon was a person of good character back in the day, he often showed some troublesome aspects as well, didn’t he?

Why can I do the entire spear formation by myself?

>>169

I’m really glad you’re a worthless outsider not worth my time.

Owari Yagyu is crap.

>>170

Response from Tajima no Kami.

I’m getting passing scores for now, so I’m sure I can create something better.

You’re the kind of person who would get angry for giving a serious response to a lord, aren’t you, Kobon-san?

Nanako? It’s Nanako.

When you’re about to climax, just remember my face…

It’s a quick deal to finish with a sword making scene.

Maybe when you use a prototype, you’ll think, “This is good!”

I think being consistent in sticking with sword-making is important.

There’s still something missing…

Hmm, I’d like to see about three more patterns.

Is there really a need to use swords so much in peaceful times…?

>>183

Found it!

>>183

In a few decades, there will be an event like the Chūshingura, so there are times when swords will be used.

I should have at least practiced swinging, even if I didn’t go as far as trying to cut.

>>184

It’s making a “hyun hyun” sound in the thread image!

Well, putting that aside, since it’s a tool with which you entrust your life, there are things that you won’t understand unless you genuinely engage in the life-or-death exchange against an opponent who is seriously trying to kill you with a group of people.

What is it with people who choose a katana and wakizashi for their interpersonal skills, not just as a status symbol in this era?

And why are you using it?

>>185

Since this person is at the top of a household that relies on swordsmanship, they must have their standards.

Hikayo finally lost her temper.

>>186

Even someone like you, who is a young master, cannot feel the spiritual power…

Every time I ask for a retake, Hikaru’s skill in delivering improved versions is just too good…

Did samurai switch between several swords in their lifetime like we do with modern cars?

Ordinary people aside, the person in the thread should always consider the possibility of being attacked by bandits.

>>194

Even if it’s the same “killed by thieves,” a regular samurai’s reputation would probably drop significantly, but the person in the image makes a living teaching swordsmanship…

It’s not the sword that’s bad, but the person who can’t use it properly, isn’t it?
