DMM’s popular web game and mobile game Touken Ranbu (刀剣乱舞) will be having a new sword soon. A teaser picture of the sword has been released, revealing that the character has a dragon tattoo on his neck.
Fans suspect that he is Koryu Kagemitsu (小竜景光) since the dragon tattoo matches the facade of the real sword.
