==Limitations==

*Using two katanas requires more thought into attacks and range, making it difficult for thoughts on both to operate. Thus, the defensive capabilities are slightly weakened depending on the user.
*Two katanas of equal length could get in the way during melee exchanges.
*The user may require Multi-Focus to full display this ability.
*May require a degree of training or exposure.
*May take time to achieve mastery.
