片手剣/Sword and Shield - Konton no Jinyaku 「混沌の刃薬」(Chaotic Blade Drug.) The Hunter lunges forward, dragging their blade against the shield to ignite the specially mixed Blade Drug with the friction.

太刀/Long Sword - Youtou Rasetsu 「妖刀羅刹」(Mystic Sword Rasetsu/Rakshasa) The Hunter's attack is temporarily increased. Throughout the duration of the effect, the Hunter's health will steadily decrease, but by attacking the monster health can be recovered (presumably similar to the effect from 4G.)
双剣/Dual Blades - Rasenzan 「ラセンザン」 (Spiral Slash? no kanji given.) The Hunter charges forward while spinning with the blades. When the weapons dig into the softer parts of the target monster's flesh, the Hunter can use the whole of their body slash forward, dealing great damage.
