Silly honor, eh?
The kamikaze pilots were named after the Divine Wind of Japan's history. |

Not so divine in WW2 haha. On a better note, Kikuichimonji does exist. But the name is of a swordsmith not a sword. The full name is Kikuichimonji Norimune. Swordsmiths usually name swords after themselves so people like Nagasone Kotetsu, Soshu Masamune, Sengo Muramasa and Yamato Kaneuji. So no, there really isn't much legend on it. It really is just historical names stuck conveniently into video games for more variety.
~~~ Au.

Yes, that too. But it MEANS Divine Wind, and they used it becuase, without the storm, they would have lost the war. And.... running into something with a plane full og bombs... pretty much makes sure you're gonna die. No bullet in the hbead required. ~regruBgniK ~~~  |

I don't think you know what a kamikaze pilot is.

who, me?
i only know a bit about them from books. they were japanese soldiers who would die for their country and if they survived, they considered it a dishonor. so if they survived a blast, they shoot themselves. though its unlikely that i'll ever survive a bombblast. ~~~  |

That's not what I mean.
You would not survive a kamikaze attack. Why are we discussing this anyways? I don't believe 'kamikaze' appears anywhere in Riviera. |

Kamikaze was the Japanese name for the attack, so it counts.
And "Ecthel" is spelled the same way as "Excel" in Japanese katakana. ~~~ KITTI IZ 4 FITE （（ 彡 彡 彡
