I am Kasen Kanesada. I was crafted by the second generation, hailed as the greatest even amongst the successive generations of the Kanesada clan, also known as Nosada.

The origin of my name comes from the 36 Immortals of Poetry. Elegant, don’t you agree?

…Though, my former master also happened to kill 36 of his vassals with his bare hands, which is to say, it seems now that everyone is not quite sure how to react around me.

I'm Hachisuka Kotetsu. I come from the Hachisuka clan, so that's what I'm called. Most of the Kotetsu inscribed with a name have been deemed counterfeit, but I'm real. It'd be a problem if you assumed I was fake.
