[Opinions] Re: Very violent....(m)

If it's Japanese ritual suicide you're thinking about, it's called seppuku or hara-kiri. If it's the Roman one, where people did throw themselves on their swords (like Anthony at the end of Anthony and Cleopatra), then I'm not sure if there's a specific name.

Its seppuku. That was the word I was looking for. Thanks!

You're welcome, though that's technically not falling one's sword but disenbowelling oneself.
