Nanami's weapon is a three-sectioned staff. It was decided that it should be a Chinese-style bludgeoning weapon to match those of the hero and Jowy. Her three-section staff consists of three evenly sized poles connected by chain. The three-sectioned staff uses the principle of leverage, which means that even someone physically weaker, like Nanami, can cause great damage. | Nanami's weapon is a three-sectioned staff.
