Mugetsu-Ryu (無月流 Mugetsu-Ryū) is a Sword style used in the practice of Sword Magic.
Appearance
In the manga, her katana looks like a normal katana with an extremely long blade, reminiscent of a nodachi, with a decorated handguard, and traditional hilt-wrapping and pommel.[1]
In the anime, however, it is given a much more distinctive appearance, sporting a western-looking red and black handguard and having the traditional yellow and red hilt-wrapping flanked by golden-colored plates on the hilt, which ends in a very ornate, carved pommel. The lacquered sheath is red.[2]
Description

Due to its fearsome cutting ability, Ikaruga boasted that with this sword there is nothing that she cannot slice and Erza also suspects that the katana is not just a normal sword[3] which proven to be true as it can slice at least three of her armors.[4]
