Trivia[]
- The Anku's design is inspired by the
Paris, in the same manner that the
Redeemer ,
Dual Raza and
Boltace are based off the designs of the
Tigris,
Soma and
Boltor respectively.
- The Anku is the first scythe that is built in the Clan Dojo.
- When it was initially released, the Anku had a
stance polarity, which did not match either stances available at the time. This was later corrected in Hotfix 16.7.1 (2015-06-04), giving the Anku its current
stance polarity.
- The Anku's blade folds down into the handle when stowed away.
- The Anku's name is likely a reference to two words;
- Anku is the Quechuan word for flexible or elastic, which likely refers to the three strings that retract the Anku's blade when it is holstered.
- Ankou is a personification of death in Breton and French folklore. He is usually depicted as a skeleton wearing a cloak and a large-brimmed hat, along with wielding a scythe.
