      ADD TRIVIA
      • The glove for the sword of Tengu looks to be made for the left hand, as Donny and Master Splinter wear it there. It gives the impression that the Shredder is left handed. After all, he's the one who had the sword forged. Edit
      • When we get a good look at the Sword of Tengu we can see very clearly that the hilt is ended with a nob in the shape of an Utrom, but in real life Japanese swords DON'T have nobs on the end. This mistake is caused from artists confusing the design of the katana with that of swords wielded by British and European knights. Edit
      • According to Raph, nobody will be able to be seen in the darkness. So how did the Turtles see the Foot Ninja surrounding them if it was pitch black? Edit

      • Saki: (after the turtles stole the Sword of Tengu) For a long time, longer than you can possibly imagine, my enemies have managed to elude me. Here at last is proof of their presence in this city, and all it costs me was the Sword of Tengu! Edit
      • Donatello: My name is Donatello, and right now, I'm learning just how long I can hold my breath. That vibrocannon is seriously messing up the East River, if this keeps up, the whole South Street Seaport could go crumbling into the water. I'd be fascinated by the technology, if I wasn't otherwise occupied. Edit
      • Leonardo: Wait up! (sigh It's tough being a leader. Edit
