Shinai

The shinai is a weapon in Yandere Simulator.

Gameplay
The shinai can be obtained by beating the delinquent Hayanari Tsumeato, in a combat mini-game. The shinai cannot be concealed in Yandere-chan's inventory and is seen as suspicious, so if any student sees her holding the weapon, her reputation will drop by ten points at high School Atmosphere.

Yandere-chan cannot use a shinai when fighting a Heroic student or Teachers and will automatically lose, as the weapon is too unwieldy to use in close quarters.

Yandere-chan can put the shinai inside a cello case or a trash can in order to conceal it.

Sword Animations
There are 4 killing animations depending on Yandere-chan's level of sanity.
 * High Sanity: She will step forward and hit the student on the head with the shinai.
 * Medium Sanity: She will knock the student down on their knee and hit the student on the head.
 * Low Sanity: She will knock the student down on their knee, hit them in the head and whack them repeatedly.
 * Stealth Kill: She will put the shinai around the student's neck and break their neck.

Trivia

 * The shinai was implemented in the April 26th, 2018 Build.
