"One of the two legendary youkai weapons (古伝の二 武器, koden no ni buki; "two weapons of legend"). Said to have been forged by a kappa called Masazane, a descendant to the kappa swordsmith Muramasa, legends say he realized that one of the greatest threats to the fledgling youkai nation is the dragon threat, so he designed a weapon with which to slay them. The Ryuukiri is a special yari spear, with a specially shaped, extra-long heavy blade, designed to penetrate through the thick scales and hide of a dragon, and reach directly to one of its vital organs. Being a spear of legends, Ryuukiri was said to be as hungry for dragon hearts as Muramasa was hungry for blood." |

- Dragon-killer effect: For every successful hit against a dragon enemy, (all standard Dragons, angelic Holy Dragon, Silver Blade), the weapon gains one "Dragonheart" point, up to a maximum of 14. At any given moment, if the spear has at least one Dragonheart point, the user may use a special ability called Tsukkomu (突っ込む, "thrust"). When using Tsukkomu, the user is restricted to one attack per turn, but this weapon's LDV is by (2 x Dragonheart points). At the maximum of 14 points, LDV is increased by 28 points, for a theoretical maximum LDV of +37. On the next turn after using Tsukkomu, Dragonheart points are reset to 0.
