History

Dragon Ball

Yajirobe attacking Cymbal with his sword.

Yajirobe first used his katana in Dragon Ball to kill Piccolo Daimao's son, Cymbal, by slicing him in half. He next used it while fighting an ice monster on his way to get the Ultra Divine Water for Son Goku in an anime filler.

Dragon Ball Z

Yajirobe's Katana was very sharp. It sliced through not only Great Ape Vegeta's tail, but his Battle Armor as well, which only the strongest energy blasts could pierce through. It was also capable of slicing right through a solid building with little effort. Yajirobe used the sword at least four times in the anime and manga. The number of yellow diamonds on the sword handle is inconsistent from shot to shot in the anime.

Yajirobe's Katana played a major part in the battle against Vegeta when Yajirobe used it to cut off Great Ape Vegeta's tail, forcing the Saiyan back into his base form. Shortly afterwards, Yajirobe used his katana to slice through Vegeta's Battle Armor after Goku had been defeated, to stop Vegeta pulling off Gohan's tail. The sword was later used by Kuririn in an attempt to finish Vegeta off, but he was stopped by Goku.

When Future Yajirobe was killed by Future Artificial Human No. 18 in Future Trunks Brief's alternate timeline, his katana appeared to be broken. The reason is unknown, but this has quite a resemblance to when Future No. 18 broke Future Trunks Brief's Sword. Future No. 18 may have done the same to Yajirobe's Katana if he had attacked her with it.

Films
