Demon Slayer Swords ( Kimetsu no Yaiba )
by Mezimaru
Demon Slayer Swords, by Mezimaru, adds Nichirin Swords to Forge 1.20.2 and 1.20.1, with Scarlet Ore to craft them from in the overworld.
What it does
Players craft several sword models at a Smithing Table, using a diamond sword with an ingredient such as lava or a lightning rod plus Scarlet Ore. Scarlet Ore generates anywhere in the overworld at Y-150 and above. The set includes Rengoku's Sword and Zenitsu's Sword, and the mod also carries references to swords from the Legend of Zelda and Dragon Quest series.
Each blade has its own attack style: thunder breathing for Zenitsu's sword, water breathing for Giyu's blade and flame breathing for Rengoku's. The mod is aimed at survival play, where a sword is the way to clear zombies and skeletons in a world overrun by enemies. The mod requires playerAnimator, and it works alongside Better Combat.
The mod runs on both sides, so the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved, which means the code is not open source. Forge is the only loader, with builds for 1.20.1 and 1.20.2.
