Yoru
Yoru (also known as the Dark Blade) is the pinnacle of swordsmanship in Anime Fighting Simulator Endless. Wielded by the strongest swordsman Mihawk in the anime, this Mythical weapon lives up to its reputation by offering the highest base damage scaling for the Sword stat.
It is easily recognizable by its massive, crucifix-like black blade and the signature green energy waves it releases when swung. For any player following the Swordsman or Pirate class path, Yoru is the ultimate goal.
Weapon Stats
- Rarity: Mythical
- Type: Greatsword (Kokuto)
- Damage Scaling: Extreme (Best in Slot)
- Swing Speed: Fast (Surprisingly fast for its size)
- Range: Infinite (with slash waves)
Yoru is unique because it combines the raw power of a heavy weapon like the Dragon Slayer with the speed and projectile capabilities of a light weapon.
Special Attacks
Equipping Yoru transforms your gameplay.
- World Strongest Slash: A massive vertical green wave that travels across the map. It cuts through terrain and deals heavy damage to anything in its path.
- Horizontal Horizon: A sweeping horizontal slash that clears wide areas. Perfect for crowd control in raids.
- Precision Strike: A rapid thrust that deals critical damage to single targets.
How to Obtain Yoru
Yoru is one of the hardest items to get.
- Game Pass: It is often available as a premium Game Pass purchase (Robux). This is the most direct method.
- Boss Drop: In some updates, defeating the Mihawk Boss in the Sea Dimension has a microscopic chance (0.01%) to drop the blade.
- Crafting: You might need to combine lesser swords like Yubashiri and Kitetsu with a “Dark Stone” to forge it.

Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)
Is Yoru better than the Dragon Slayer?
Generally, Yoru offers higher single-target damage and better range with its Slash ability. The Dragon Slayer (Guts’ sword) is often slower but may have higher impact or stun. Yoru is preferred for DPS.
Can I upgrade Yoru?
Yes, like all weapons in AFSE, Yoru can be upgraded using Chikara Shards or specific ores to increase its base damage multiplier even further.
Does Yoru affect Fruit skills?
No, Yoru primarily boosts Sword damage. If you are a Chakra main user (Fruit user), Yoru will mostly be a cosmetic stat stick unless you hybridize your build.
Is it worth buying the Game Pass?
If you are serious about being a “Sword Main,” yes. Yoru saves you countless hours of grinding for a lower-tier weapon and significantly speeds up your farming.
Does it glow?
Yes, the blade emits a faint green aura, and the slash effects are very bright and distinct, serving as a status symbol in the lobby.
