Answer: 2

The two decapitations we see are at the end of Chapter 2, and before the final boss fight in Chapter 16. A clan Hayabusa Ninja is decapitated by Doku in Chapter 2, and Gamov is decapitated by the Dark Disciple (Murai) later in Chapter 16. Note that while many more decapitations take place during the game, these are the only 2 that take place in the cutscenes.

Answer: Lunar

The Lunar is basically a long staff. It is much faster than weapons such as Dabilahro, and deals more damage than Nunchaku or Vigoorian Flails.
