I need lots of info on anime weapons...

So, I'll be running a one-shot zombie horror game using Grim Tales. It'll take place at an anime/fantasy con, with the zombie outbreak occuring as our heroes peruse an immensely cool exhibit...working replicas of anime weapons. I know that's not a very likely thing, but I'm sure I can justify it :)

So, I'll have anime-geeks fighting zombies with Alucard's Jackal and .454 Casull, Vash's revolver, Kenshin's sword, and perhaps a one with less brains then style will go for Gut's sword or the Masamune :)

However....I'm not too well versed in anime weapons :o

So...

Any anime weapons you think are cool, tell me!

Does anyone know what exactly Vincent Velentine's Death Penalty gun is? Its magazine? Gungrave's Ceruberus magazines, and whether they use any special ammo? Squall's gunblade cylinder capacity? Anything you think is cool.

Thanks in advance!

I'm kinda partial to FLCL's guitars. Or Bandit Jing's Kir! Those are probably a bit atypical, though. ;)

Maybe the suit from Jin-Roh.
One of the coolest swords ever is Hoshigaki Kisame's sword, Samehada, from Naruto. You first see it in episode 81, but I can't find a picture of it.
The magic gun from Outlaw Star was pretty neat.
Any of the weapons from Samurai Deeper Kyo would be cool.
Maybe Slayers' Sword of Light?
There are any number of giant swords, from Bleach's Zanpukatō to Final Fantasy VII's Masamune.
 

Nicholas Wolfwood's cross gun from Trigun. A giant cross, which serves as a weapons platform and carries a half-dozen pistols, and is itself a very large gun.

Demiurge out.
 

A replicator assault rifle, It makes a copy of whatever you shoot, 1 per "bullet". Copies have a dash " ' " above thier head and act as the original.

a sex change gun.

A jetbike with a mini gun.

Living armor.

Flattened steel girder of wrist breaking -20. Every attack recieves the penalties and modifications of a power attack for 20 points.

Elven thinblade

Mmmmmm....I don't think I phrased my question clearly enough :p

These are working replicas of the weapons, made with modern technology and no magic. You can't really make a Vash-sized gun that could destroy a planet, so there won't be an Angel Arms, for example. No sex-change guns, no mecha, no magic 'Caster gun (although I'll be putting in a little grenade launcher that's a replica of that).

Thanks anyway :)
 

From Inu-Yasha, there's Inu-Yasha's Tetsusaiga, and that giant boomerang thingy Sango uses.

There's also Ashram's demon-sword Soulcrusher from Record of Lodoss War, although it's not terribly flashy.

EDIT: Just read your last post there a little more closely. Never mind, I don't think these'd be terribly feasible, then.

Well you're no fun. :p And here I was going to mention the Wave-Motion Gun.

What? They have one at the anime cons I go to.
 

Well, I did it, and it went smashingly :)

One guy grabbed a Ceruberus, a tanto, and the 'Caster; one took the Jackal, the .454 Casull, and Gene Starwind's double-barrelled pistol; one took the reverse-blade sword and Jubei's sword; one took Gut's sword (and abandoned it after one swing), and Father Anderson's coat (with all his bayonets); one took nothin', but she was a Father Anderson type herself, and was already armed :)

It was fun.
