Injection Shot 325 Mastery + -
	A rotating crosshair appears in front of the player. When released, a swift lightning projectile shoots out of the sword (does not have projectile mechanics), which damages and shocks any opponents hit by it, while also knocking them back slightly. When used in Control's room, the move's range is boosted to hit anywhere in the field, while also having an extreme aim assist. The shot resembles a laser.

Overview

Pros
General Great damage. Very good for hybrids, especially with Control. The moves' range will increase when being inside Control's [Z]. Good for combos. Very fast M1s. Decent choice for grinding with Buddha. Both moves can hit multiple targets. Really good upgrade to Shizu because Koko's moves are instant.
[Z] Electric Stab Stuns the target(s) hit for a brief second. Decent knockback. Mobility move. Has a somewhat large hitbox, making it easy to hit.
[X] Injection Shot Great range. Can hit anywhere inside the user's Control Area. Will always break Instinct. Stuns the target(s) hit for a split second with a little knockback. Slow start-up allows the user to aim somewhere else while releasing the key, making the hitbox player's cursor.

Cons
General Cannot hit Blade users. Needs a bit of aiming skills and a lot of prediction skills to hit in PvP. Swords like Dragonheart and True Triple Katana outperform it, at least in terms of hitbox, range and damage. Although Control Z may fix problems with the range of the sword, the damage and hitbox unfortunately remain the same. Very short stun. Very hard to obtain. High mastery requirements. Dashes at the third M1, making it unreliable for grinding.
[Z] Electric Stab Hitbox is strangely modified by Awakened Buddha. Not an instant dash, thus making it hard to hit. Weird knockback may make it difficult to use in combos. Slight end-lag.
[X] Injection Shot Slightly long wind-up.

Trivia

Koko is used by the Lv. 1250 raid boss, Order.
Both moves deal the exact same damage.
Despite being called a katana, Koko itself is an ōdachi, which is longer and larger than a normal katana.
[Z] Electric Stab can be used to no-clip through thin walls and doors.
Koko is the first sword to be buffed by a fruit other than Buddha, which is Control.
The hitbox of [X] Injection Shot is at the player's cursor, not the visual, meaning if the player moves the cursor to somewhere else, then the move's hitbox will move as well. For instance, if the player first aimed the [X] Injection Shot in front of themselves but aimed to the right after releasing the move, the target(s) to the right will be affected. (Does not work if the player held the move instead of tapping the move.)
Koko is not curved like a normal ōdachi, instead it is straight. This suggests that after forging koko was not drenched in water, rather it was left to cool off, which ideally would result in a weaker katana.
