To answer your question, traditionally, samurai used spear much more often than their swords. The katana was more of a status symbol. And I see the trident as kind of an overaggressive upgrade of the spear. I wanted something unique, but also familiar, something practical, and something that feels a little vicious. I hope I have explained my reasoning behind the trident well. And also, I believe that Oni would fit under the anger category, but a little loosely. I saw it as more of fear of pain and destruction, both of which fit under war, in a way.
