Ich denke das Schwert, vom Namen her, soll eine Anspielung auf Zangetsu von Bleach sein (:

Most likely a bleach manga reference to Ichigo Kurosaki's Zanpakutō Zangetsu

Kommentar von thaedris20

"My only goal is to make you more powerful. You have surpassed my expectations. There is nothing left for me to teach. Whether or not you have the strength to defeat me in combat is up to you, and the cold truth is, even if you were to fall to my blade, I would be content with the outcome." -Zangetsu

or I guess in this case Sanketsu :P

For those who dont know what the refence that its probably (and most likely) related to is from Bleach. For those who never heard of Bleach (other than a cleaning agent) is an anime about a guy named Ichigo Kurosaki who is many things but is known as a Shinigami or Soul reaper. He weilded a Zanpakuto known as Zangetsu which (and i apologize that i have'nt kept up to date in the anime in a while) is a part of Ichigo. It has multiple appearances the first is an old man in a black coat with long hair. Theres two others that i know of but wont go into detail about those.

Anyways Id go further into details but ill let you figure the rest of the story on your own. Also again apologies if some parts of my story are incorrect as I know some things have changed over the years.

DON'T LOSE YOUR WAAAAAAAAAAY

Kommentar von Mattarias

.....I think it's a reference to BOTH Bleach and Kill la Kill.

Why can't we get along?

Kommentar von planetjeff

This is reference to either Zangetsu or Senketsu, from Bleach and Kill La Kill respectively. Hard to tell based on the spelling, it is only one letter off Senketsu, yet is a weapon rather than an armor piece.

Zangetsu is the main character Ichigo's weapon (Zanpakuto, or soul cutter) for most of the series.
Senketsu is the main character Ryuko's living clothing (Kamui, or god robe).

Kommentar von Mushalor

It's perhaps worth noting that "Sanketsu" on its own could be translated as "suffocation" (choking, asphyxiation; lack of oxygen).

Kommentar von mastergame5

Came here to talk about a possible reference to bleach. Proud to see that quite a few people beat me to it. Now to see about any other anime references.

KAMUI SENKETSU

Kommentar von Eonarion

This is indeed Senketsu from Kill la Kill, as its name is both most similar to it, instead of the sword from bleach, and to clear some stuff up, Senketsu is NOT an armor piece. I repeat NOT an armor piece. From the Kill la Kill series the Senketsu was made to be a weapon. Even though it may look like a dress, its not an armor piece. Please watch the anime before judging it please.

edit; In addition, from the quest, it implies the weapon is LIVING, not like a spirit, but the actual weapon is staring at the new owner.

"The blade is searing hot to the touch. The jewel on its hilt stares at you, as if daring you to claim it."

Reward from Sanketsu, die brennende Klinge/Sanketsu, die brennende Klinge, which you can pick up after you defeat Azuka Klingenwut at the end of the Garnisonskampagne: Erwachen/Garnisonskampagne: Erwachen questline.

This item is just like Blutbedeckte Waffe, but this one sets their weapon to 655.

It however does NOT change the weapon model your follower is wearing to that of what Azuka Klingenwut uses.

Some follower weapons do change models when their weapon ilvl is increased to 615, 630, and/or 645, but those are pre-determined models for that follower.

Still, the perfect follower to give this item to, for lore reasons in my opinion, is Lantresor von der Klinge.

Likely has something to do with Azuka Klingenwut the warlord of the Burning Blade clan.
On one of the Garrison Campaign missions, the ring of blood, you fight her. She talks about how her weapon grows stronger the more it kills, and while Sanketsu is not named specifically, the icon and the weapon she wields look similar. She stuns you before you can kill her and then flees while saying someday, your blood will coat its edge, its only a matter of time. Finally, at the end of the quest line an NPC in your garrison says we will have to watch out for her in the future.

Kommentar von Mormolyce

If only I hadn't already geared Lantresor of the Blade. He deserves this weapon.

Kommentar von Darkestdion

This item can be disenchanted for a Temporaler Kristall even though its not player equipment.

Edit: It can't be disenchanted anymore since 6.1.

Kommentar von Brand

If I had Baros Alexston as a follower at this point, I'd equip him with this.

Kommentar von LastMohican

Rather than giving it to Lantresor of the Blade, who sadly is no more than a miner in my garrison, I am going to wait for completion of The Steel Has Been Brought and give it to Aknor Steelbringer as he seems like a proper recipient of Sanketsu. Which will also boost his weapon from ilvl 600 to 655.

Kommentar von Funkeeh

I know this probably not is a reference to Ichigo's weapon in Bleach, but dang it would have been cool, if it had been a black Katana instead of an axe

Kommentar von 1392125

Neither anime's use this word.

Bleach's spelling is way off, Senketsu(Notice the "e") is translated as "previous decision".

And apparently Sanketsu means to suffocate, although I couldn't find that translation with google. Too much Kill La Kill stuff.

If you want to see it as an anime reference by all means, you just have to realize that most words were around a lot longer then our current pop culture, not everything has to be a reference to a tv show or a movie, it could be just clever use of an international thesaurus, so to speak.

Maybe they just realized that the Japanese have the coolest words for sword names.

Edit: Nevermind, that's what it means.

https://translate.google.com/#ja/en/酸欠 -- Just type it in to the Japanese box and it will give you the "did you mean" in Japanese/Kanji/whatever it's called. It means lack of oxygen specifically.

Kommentar von ilostmahbucket

Just used on my Fo Sho Knucklebump and it DID change the weapon model but to an ugly staff. Beware.

Kommentar von 1114743

As far as I can tell there's nothing super special about this item per se, it's just a great follower upgrade item. I ended up using it on Thisalee (the follower you get from the same quest that gives this item) bc most of my followers are already 630+ in the weapon slot.

Kommentar von Vertixio

It's worth noting that you will get legendary follower in 6.1 along with Aknor Steelbringer. Might be worth using on these 2

Kommentar von Atromnis

For those of you looking for the skin of the sword, it's Großschwert des kataklysmischen Gladiators

Kommentar von SyCx1

Was really hoping it would actually be the introduction of real follower items but alas it is only an ilvl upgrade. Going to use it on my new Flachping since he is the treasure farmer I got this week.

Kommentar von Avengion

Yea but does it Getsuga Tensho?

Kommentar von bazzyl

Used it on Choluna right away.

Kommentar von Eaglecreek49

All my followers are capped so this item cant be used even for its appearance, too bad you cant apply the model like a Follower transmog of sorts. At least then it wouldn't be a useless bank item that wont get to serve a purpose anytime soon. I really think they intended this as much for its model as an actual weapon upgrade. Even early in the expac it wasnt that much of an actual follower upgrade. Clearly this could have been a follower weapon model change, im not sure why they didnt see this ahead of time.

Kommentar von Babas

In a nut shell:

1. Upgrades a Followers weapon to level 655.
2. Does NOT xmorg the Followers weapon.

Kommentar von IllianDray

Really really disappointed that we have to waste this awesome blade on a follower. Blizzard totally could have had it for a class's artifact weapon in Legion.

Kommentar von 1170496

Gave this to Tormmok, simply because i felt that he needed some kind of a reward for all his troubles and watching my ouchie prone behind around draenor.

Kommentar von DaemoniKira

A Japanese orc (杏花=Azuka) with a Japanese sword called Sanketsu (酸欠=Sanketsu). The kanji used in "Azuka" means "apricot flower"; those used in "Sanketsu" means "lack of oxygen"...

Interesting...?

(Contrary to several comments left across the Sanketsu pages (and even on this page alone), the kanji used in "Sanketsu" ( 酸欠 ) means "lack of oxygen", specifically, not "suffocation". "Chissoku" ( 窒息 ) is the Japanese word for "suffocation". Yes, the two words are related, but they are not the same or interchangeable.)
