I can't personally do it but it seems like a good idea.

Well I'll not be doing it. It sounds daft to me.

Sounds like a lot of work for something that won't be used by very many people whatsoever. Even in Stock I prefer realistic looking weapons.

From Zanpakuto to Kunai.

Well, for the two items you provided, I'm fairly certain that you can't really pin down any one appearance to a zanpakuto and a kunai seems like it'd be essentially a razor tip with normals.
If anyone is willing to do something like this I don't think we'd stop them, but it just seems like most of the resulting items would just be redundant. So don't expect much of a response, sorry to wreck your idea train.

No one would use them because they would have the most unpractical shapes ever.

Yes, There arn't very many people who make custom components in the first place and I am one of the few left on these forums who will make what the public want. I do not see very many people using 'anime components' as if you wanted such thing they'd play an anime game rather than one oriented around classic robot combat. I'm surprised the minecraft idea caught on, although it didnt last long.

My aim with Robot Arena is to make it as realistic and entertaining as possible and I feel like 'anime' or 'minecraft' components are just a step backwards.

It is a strict, yet harsh diet but its one that I'm sticking with frankly. My apologies if this comes across as nobbish.
