Note: Maguto’s cards are all weird “weapon” + “A type of fish” joke names. I’m not entirely sure what Hadoutou might be playing at entirely, but there’s a non-zero change it’s playing Hadou, “Military Conquest and Governance”.

The name itself is a play on 活人剣 Katsujinken, a Japanese idiom that a sword can be a tool to save lives, despite it being a tool to end and harm lives. It’s based on the principles of martial arts in general where your first instinct shouldn’t be violence, but violence CAN be used to end other violence.
It’s also connected to how martial arts and swordsmanship can be used to help refine someone mentally and sharpen their skills and encourage better self growth and discipline.

Wait, is this the first instance of monster effect negation in Rush?
Para un Monstruo, creo que si es la primera vez en mi memoria reciente: tener un Efecto Continuo que permite negar Efectos y impedir que otros Monstruos activen su Efecto.
Sin embago, ha habido casos (muy pocos) de cartas que permiten negar Efectos o impedir que un Monstruo active su Efecto, pero siguen siendo exclusivas de Rush’s Anime (example: Raging Maelstrom of Insectile Scales)
Red Boost es otro caso similar, solo que este permite volver a utilizar el Efecto de un Monstruo especifico.
