Ok ok, I know that what I'm going to ask is something very silly, but what do you think of the idea of putting an option to hold the sword with the left hand? Yes yes it's very stupid but it would increase the immersion,I've always been really anxious about this, it would be really cool if I had this option.

If you don't want to do it, that's fine, it was just an idea, the game is amazing, good job
there was no such thing as left handed swordsman
also it wouldnt make sense because of the way you normally hold a katana
How come it doesn't exist?
The mechanics are different in this game, obviously there will be some swords with different M1 that would make sense, and also in the oni part because there are those weapons that would match.

At least for katanas they weren’t a thing
Because you hold a katana with your right hand above your left
What does that have to do with using a weapon on your left hand
Left handed swordsmen were uncommon and actually bad for military purposes throughout history as formations were built around drawing your sword from your left hip and wielding it with your right, often with a shield in your left
If you were a left handed swordsmen, you'd be interrupting the others around you with your draw your strikes, and your shield if you had one
