Duh chud. It’s common knowledge that the savior of Japan Yasuke used that to slay the whiteys when they tried to colonize.
shieeeeeeet
It's also the sword that Mifune uses in Seven Samurai.

I highly recommend Nioh 2 if you want to try out some great Odachi combat.
I'm pretty sure that's a nodachi, not an odachi. Shorter, more similar to how europeans used Zweihändern than the craziness going on with odachi's.
Alternatively, I'm bloviating and there isn't a real difference.
The handle alone is length of a regular katana
I'm thinking bow, arrows, and weighted/spiked chain weapons got very popular in that era.
