Government Ban on Katanas

The government has announced a ban on katanas Meiji 9 OCTOBER 2020

A woman tells a man that the government has announced a ban on katanas while he anxiously checks a calendar labeled “Meiji 9” and “October 2020.” The joke is that he believes the ban is happening in a historical Japanese era, reacting with absurd confusion and panic; it works as a reaction to outdated or wildly misinterpreted information.
