As the saying goes.... "ikze is the one who sets out on a Journey of Dreams with his trusted Holy Sword, accompanied with a Witch and a Goldsmith to Nagoya" I couldn't work out a way to shove Curren in I'm sorry

Curren would like to have a little "talk" with you.

I wanna say Fund It!... But that title I feel could apply to more than just ikze... *Stares intently at Team Sirius and Alkes' trainers, as well as the Natto merchant*
The commissioning company forgot to secure the rights for hanatsuki's designs despite using them as references for the outfits, so they've retracted these arts and released a statement explaining this:
Apparently this is tracing of hanatsuki's works with the similarity being 1:1 :Deadbeat: Such a shame, never thought a professional artist like Minori could do something like this.

Based on the apology tweet it sounds like they submitted hanatsuki's works as reference material without making sure that they could actually use them. Images don't look like a trace either, just the same outfit copied form the reference by a skilled artist.

They just posted an official statement (https://twitter.com/crux_anime/status/1839168083975614502, asset #23287017) affirming what the previous statement seemed to allude to, namely that they fucked up with sourcing and crediting their reference materials sent to the artist. I'm not sure why everyone was so ready to go after the artist for a professional commission like this.
No, it’s actually quite terrible in both regards, video game insta-kill knives notwithstanding. It either takes six good hits to the chest, all the while struggling with the target and creating one hell of a mess, or a hard to line up stab between the first vertebrae and the skull to sever the spinal column from the brain. The first isn’t that quiet or quick and the second is finicky at best. At that range, why not just dome them with a silenced .22lr pistol like the Welrod or a Ruger? Hell, a garrotte would be better than a knife, you’ve still got a struggle but there’s almost nothing the victim can do except gasp for air. My point is that knives are the meme weapon of stealth that should never be considered unless they are literally the ONLY THING you have on hand.
Ruger was founded in 1949 and as best I can find the lowest-caliber Welrod was chambered for .32 ACP, besides which a .22 would have the same issues as a knife as far as needing precision to kill instantly. You're exactly right that a knife is only silent if you get it right the first time, but A: it's a tool that's useful for things other than stealthy kills as well and thus a better use of a human's limited carrying capacity, and B: the SAS trained like madmen so that they would get it right the first time.
If you notice it, you can see that in the afterlife the Italian girl's pasta is severed right at the level of her neck. I bet the SAS girl went for the throat...
