After delivering [[Hiro and the Dinosaur|the painting]], Hiro distracts [[Linderman's curator]] by asking for a shipping slip. While he is away, Hiro searches on the computer in [[Linderman's archives]] for "<span style="font-variant:small-caps;text-transform:lowercase">SWORD, [[Takezo Kensei|KENSEI]]</span>", where the container with the sword comes out of the filing system. As Hiro goes to get the sword from a ladder, the curator switches a security mechanism that locks down the archives. A [[Ando|security guard]] comes, only to knock the curator unconscious.

===[[Episode:How to Stop an Exploding Man|How to Stop an Exploding Man]]===
The sword may or may not have been repaired (it's covered), and [[Kaito Nakamura|Kaito]] hands it back to [[Hiro Nakamura|Hiro]] as he leaves to search for [[Ando Masahashi|Ando]]. After [[space-time manipulation|teleporting]] away from [[Sylar]], Hiro and Ando arrive at [[Yamagato Industries]], where Hiro hands his sword over to Ando. Stating "It is not the sword, it is the man. This man is ready," Hiro takes [[Ando's sword]] and teleports to [[Kirby Plaza]] to battle Sylar.

When Hiro arrives in [[Timeline:Pre-eclipse|1671]], [[Fake Kensei|a warrior]] is seen brandishing the sword.

==[[Heroes Evolutions]]==
===[[Hiro's blog]]===
* In his post "New York or Bust", [[Hiro]] marvels that he will have a sword as [[Future Hiro]]. He wonders what kind of sword it will be, but hopes for a katana. He also wonders if it's a magic sword.
* In his post "Practice Makes Perfect", Hiro agrees that the right way to go is to get a katana.
* In his post "Destiny Called", Hiro blogs about [[Isaac's painting]] of Hiro [[Hiro and the Dinosaur (painting)|fighting a dinosaur]] with a sword. He notes that the sword seems pretty important, and connects the sword in the painting to the one [[Peter]] told him about. He says that [[Isaac]] [[paint]]ed what seemed like a two handed katana, and that Hiro must find it.
* In his post "The Sword", Hiro writes extensively about the sword he found. As he puts it, "I've found my sword but not really. There was no sword in the sword." He notes that he found the sword in the [[Kensei]] exhibit, took the sword without permission, ended up in a [[dinosaur]] exhibit, and then returned the sword replica to the museum as it was donated by the [[Linderman Group]]. He declares his resolve to find the real sword.
* In his post "Women", Hiro pines to get his sword back.
* In his post "Hard Choices", Hiro expresses his focus on [[Future Hiro's message|the mission]] to "Get the sword. Save the world."

===[[Sword Saint]]===
In Chapter 5, "The Mystery of Kensei", Curator [[Tatsuya Atsumi]] documents that [[Takezo Kensei]] means "Sword Saint" and so we have little records of his actual name or if he even existed. Legend claims that Kensei was feared before he found his sword. The sword was said to give him focus and calm to his wild temper. Professor [[Donna Dorn]] comments that little is known about the sword's origin. Professor [[Karen Chamberlin]] adds to Dorn's comment by saying that it is much like King Arthur and his Excalibur; Kensei had to pull the sword from a field of solid ice. In [[1977]], [[Daniel Linderman]], CEO of [[Linderman Corporation]], found the sword that proved Kensei's existence. Atsumi comments that Linderman contained the largest collection of Kensei artifacts and refused for them to go on tours. This only adds to the mystery because Linderman had been recently killed and the sword went missing shortly before that. Could the [[D.L.|killers]] and everything be connected somehow to Kensei?
