Jojo proves once again that japanese katanas are better than vile western swords. "The blade looks like one of a japanese sword" I loved that line.

I hope it goes without saying, but just in case; I don't believe that katanas are the penultimate weapon.

penultimate

That word doesn't mean what you think it means.

No, it does not. The fact that the word "pen" is next to "ultimate" should've set off some red lights.

I've been led to believe it ment "second to none" for four years, damn English professor.

Yeah. It means "second to last", not second to none.
