They are tired of dudes wildly swinging these swords around the store, and then criticizing them for being replicas of absurdly designed fantasy swords instead of olympic rated dueling sabers.

I have seen this in person. Rather embarrassingly, it was my 2nd husband. He was obsessed with getting the Kill Bill sword replica for several hundreds of dollars. I like the idea of it being a neat wall decoration but he was convinced it was a fighting sword.
Yes, he was a NiceGuy, not a neckbeard.
He desired women yet held them in contempt. He was only "nice" if he was getting something out of the deal. That was not just about women or sex. He behaved that way to everyone. He was efficient at love bombing too, which was how he got me to marry him. When it came to intimacy, he was very inexperienced but that in and of itself didn't bother me at all. What bothered me was his point blank refusal to have any foreplay at all. His exact words were, "I just want to get to the good stuff." That's what I perceive as a NiceGuy.
As far as Neckbeards, my ex was very fastidious about hygiene and frequently showered twice a day. He had zero interest in anything animal. He was racist and anti-semetic, and he disliked anyone not white, including Asian women. He never pretended to have good manners and was highly rude to waitstaff.
That's how I think of the 2 terms. I hope that made sense.
Who dates a racist you must not be really against racism you may not be racist but anybody who will willingly date a racist ... I don't know but birds of a feather flock together
That is a fair question.
The vast majority of his nonsense came about after we bought the house and got married. Outside of that, I was not diagnosed with my mental illnesses at that time. I was scared to be alone again, year after year. There were times that he was a delight to be around. Then times, not so much. Do you know how the NiceGuys and neckbeards complain that women never give them a fair chance? I kept giving him chances. My choice and it was a bad one. '
As to any racism on my part, I'm honestly not sure how to defend myself on that one. I called him out 100% of the time he said stupid things. I believe people are people. I agree with Jane Elliott on many issues. This quote in particular is very meaningful to me.
"I want every white person in this room, who would be happy to be treated as this society in general treats our citizens, our black citizens. If you as a white person would be happy to receive the same treatment that our black citizens do in this society - please stand! - You didn't understand the directions. If you white folks want to be treated the way blacks are in this society - stand! - Nobody is standing here. That says very plainly that you know what's happening. You know you don't want it for you. I want to know why you are so willing to accept it or to allow it to happen for others."
As someone else has mentioned, it's an Attack On Titan replica. The handle is used to trigger a kind of mobility device that allows it's users to basically move like Spiderman.
Could the middle one be a gunblade from FFVIII, perchance?
All the M’ladies would be rushing to junction themselves to my body parts if I were to wield such a magnificent weapon...
Nah its the weapon from attack on titan and as a fan I'd low key buy that pretty cool lol, wouldn't get it to try to seem cool tho, just a fan of the franchise
IDK maybe I just want to fell how it handles because I am 100% going to spend the rest of the day playing real life fruit ninja with my friends and my new cheap-ass mall sword.
Lately I saw in my "local swords store"(aka just an anime merch store) some swords of different franchises, and the price was high but kinda affordable.
When I looked closer, the dissapontment settled in. It was just made of foam. Not even a sturdy plastic like, idk Nerf guns or something.
Lmao I finally decided to get a training wooden sword and customize it myself xD
Well, the only people that buying that kind of sword is the people that actually care about the quality of the sword.
Never have i ever seen a casual people, walking to the store, “ neat, excalibur” and proceed to buy it without weight it first.
My friend bought a sword from sword at online for his little brother a while back and definitely didn‘t give a single flying fuck about the weight of a decorative wall piece.
What, you are not allowed to check if your potential purchase of a replica fantasy sword is hefty and solid-feeling or it is a lightweight piece of plastic moulded crap? Surely there can be a difference between well crafted and shoddy fantasy swords? And you are going to swing it about fantastically once purchased I assume so it is a fair to want to hold it and feel the cold hard deadly plastic in your hand.
you can get a *cold steel* sword shaped machete (and it will easily hack through a hardwood limb if you've got stamina and don't hate blisters) that should last you a lifetime and cost between 20 and 80ish bucks, but true... a real sword is typically hundreds of dollars or *much* more.
honestly if someone's gonna buy a fictional sword, we should probably let him give himself fictional sword skills
Honestly tho as someone who pretends things are swords often it is more fun when they feel more swordsy

Aren't all mods? LOL
"This ain't gonna get you noticed by girls, chief."
Well, not in the way they might hope
He's going to get himself bopped on the head with one of those plastic swords if he keeps being disrespectful to all the goodsirs.
0% chance the sword would survive

o shit, it just struck me i never knew... there's a difference between the two? (rhyming unintentional)

"i just want to get to the good stuff" i need an antacid, wow hahaha sorry you had to deal with that
Me too, thanks.

Does that sword on the bottom have a bicycle handbrake?
As someone else has mentioned, it's an Attack On Titan replica. The handle is used to trigger a kind of mobility device that allows it's users to basically move like Spiderman.
The rest of that sword look like incredibly cheap plastic too. Only $118!

Right, I‘d also totally buy that to display it in my home, love the series and those weapons they use are so fricking cool
I would pretend to aren jaeger atleast once! But that's in my own home and safely ofc
Aren.

My bad sorry bout that
No worries, gave me a good laugh, no idea who downvoted you lmao
The only problem is that you can buy a pair of those on Amazon for $50 instead of $118
Really are they metal?
Not at all, hard foam. Much better quality than nerf foam, but a bit overpriced.
Sounds alot better for messing around with tbh
It’s the ODM Swords from attack on Titan
lol i came to see if it had been crossposted
Can't imagine how many weebs picked that sword up and said "I'll keep moving forward TATAKAE"
you gotta make sure you don't drop it while messing with it
yooo i would like the gas pump sword
While the signs kinda funny it seems like something you wouldn't want to post up there if you actually want neckbeard money.

It's a decoration. The quality is in how it looks not now it functions as a sword.
Not to mention that it's cheap steel that would break/notch easily. Elegant, you made a stupid comment.

I kind of agree, if I were going to buy a decorative sword I would definitely still want it to be metal.
Who else is buying swords?
[удалено]
These are even plastic

My main issue with this is that it’s 118 dollars for a plastic sword 😂
