In a bizarre incident, a man in England was arrested for waving a 15 cm replica of the 'Master Sword' from the famed game 'The Legend of Zelda' on the streets. The 48-year-old man, Anthony Bray, was found carrying the replica weapon in public, which led to his arrest. Despite claiming he didn't intend to use the sword as a weapon, he was sentenced to 4 months in prison and ordered to pay a fine of £154 (approximately NT$6,392). The incident sparked various reactions, with Japanese players expressing disbelief and questioning the strict laws surrounding such replicas.
