Masumune story (reply to "how to get sephiroths sword")

The story behind the Masamune blade (Sephiroth’s weapon) has been gratefully provided by Aeris Valentine.

The story leads back to feudal Japan. There were two famous swordmakers, Masamune and Murasame (Murasame is one of Cloud’s weapons). Both made excellent weapons, but there was a difference. Murasame’s weapons were bloodthirsty, where as Masamune’s was not.

One day Masamune and Murasame placed thier swords into a gentle moving stream. A leaf passed by Masamune’s blade safely, where as it was sliced in half by Murasame’s. What makes this interesting is the lack of blood during Aeris’ death. When Sephiroth thrusts his Masamune blade through her body, we see no blood.

Perhaps Sephiroth’s sword possesses the same properties as the Masamune blade in the story? Masamune’s blade was described in the story as being non-bloodthirsty. Thanks for the story, Ms. Valentine.

That’s a good story but I can think 1 reason why Aeris didnt bleed. First of all it is a game which is also meant for the younger gamers. 2nd it doenst really fit in the game (did you ever see an enemy bleed when Cloud attack 1??).

I agree with you, it t’wasnt me who made that point though

Thanks for the information and I think I’m going to close this. The info is nice but there’s not much of a discussion on the matter of Sephiroth sword and such.
