From the transcript
The Casa Regama can regularly be seen in Japanese fighting films in some modern video games, but where did this unusual weapon originate? The Casa Regama, Casa Regama, meaning chain and karma, meaning sickle, was first used on Japanese farms, particularly in Okinawa, in the Edu era, around 1603 to 1868.
A small sickle was attached onto a chain of varying lengths with a handle on the end.
It was originally developed to be used as a farming tool for jobs such as re aping crops, and if required, it can be used as a defensive weapon against intruders. The popularity as a weapon increased among samurai warriors and ninjas, however extensive training was required to be able to use the Casa Regama to its full potential.
