Are you sure it is "wa"? |

fwitt Explanation: Obviously, there can't be a real sound in raising a knife (unless the character(s) are slashing samurai swords or other type of sword/knife-type weapon in a rapid, mad fight.) "Fwitt" just gives the impression of the sound/movement of a knife being raised. |

Reference: Are you sure it is "wa"? Reference information: When raising somethng quietly it is "su" when something floats up and about it is "fuwa" Some katakana letters can be confusing with the warped figures... |
