Kura
CharacterKura is a koukaku quinque shaped like a bladed quarterstaff that can also be split for dual wielding. Once held by Kureo Mado and later Koutarou Amon, it cut through ghoul kagune with ease despite its light build, until Ken Kaneki destroyed it.
Overview
Kura is a koukaku-type quinque that looks like a quarterstaff tipped with a blade, and it can also be handled as a pair when split apart. It passed from Kureo Mado to Koutarou Amon.
Role
When its sections come apart, one piece can enter a decay phase, dissolving and rejoining the other half. The weapon is known for slicing through a ghoul's kagune with little effort while staying remarkably light. Amon carried it up until the Owl Suppression Operation, where Ken Kaneki destroyed it.
