In this electrifying episode of Mythlok, host Nitten Nair dives headfirst into the whirlwind legend of Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi—Japan's mythical Grass-Cutting Sword that once took on an eight-headed dragon and lived to slice again.

From its jaw-dropping origin inside the belly of the monstrous Yamata no Orochi, to saving a prince from a fiery death, this is no ordinary piece of sharpened steel. We’ll uncover how this wind-wielding blade became a symbol of divine authority, explore its mysterious powers, and ask the all-important question: Is it a blessing, or a beautifully crafted curse?

Expect gods, monsters, windy showdowns, drunken dragons, and just enough historical conspiracy to make Indiana Jones raise an eyebrow. So unsheathe your curiosity, hit play, and let the legend slice through the fog of time!
