I really hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the game's title strongly suggests otherwise. 東 tou [ひがし・トウ] is directly used to describe east as both an orientation and an origin--hence the translation "Wild Dance of the Eastern Swords". Furthermore, all in-game content thus far is highly self-involved with regard to Japanese history, battles, and traditions. The touken in touken ranbu is actually tou 刀 ("katana") making a compound with ken 剣 ("tsurugi"), both of which are types of sword. Combined, they simply mean sword or blade.

But I agree that it's very unlikely for the game developers to introduce a foreign sword now (out of the 139 indexed swords), though looking at other DMM games, we cannot discount the possibility in the future....

On a side note,

I'd like to think that 1-2 is either Kogarasumaru or Kusanagi-no-tsurugi, so we can have Doujigiri in 51-52 and Ookanehira in 53-54. For Osafune, I'm putting my bet on Jikkyuu Mitsutada (Oda Nobunaga's most favored Mitsutada sword--he's also there during the Honnouji incident). The original Yamanbagiri is also Osafune, so it's quite possible that 75-76 and 77-78 are these two.
