Talk:Chidori Shield

Actually...
Actually, "Tate" is Japanese for shield. It's even used for the Japanese name of Gaara's "Shield of Sand" Jutsu, "Suna no Tate".

Similarly, "Yoroi" is "Armor" and "Yaiba" is "Blade". "Tsurugi" is a Japanese double-edged sword, and "Ken" is a multi-purpose word that can refer to, among other things "sword" (as in Kenjutsu and Kendo), and "Fist" (such as in "Suiken" or "Drunken Fist", "Rakanken" or "Achiever of Nirvana Fist". and "Nekoken" or "Cat Fist" (from Ranma 1/2)).
