The yo-yo has been a popular toy around the world at least since the times of ancient Greece (~500BC). While its exact origin is unknown, it seems likely to have descended from a primitive weapon constructed by attaching a rock to a string.

Some sources say the yo-yo was used as a weapon in the Philipines, but this story is disputed by other researchers. One source cites Donald Duncan Junior, who's father popularized the yo-yo in the U.S.A., as claiming that this story was nothing but a marketing ploy.

Regardless of historical accuracy, anime characters can be seen using many unconventional weapons. The yo-yo is one of these.
