There's a chest above the room containing Ronin/Oborozuki in the Ancient Castle, and it had been opened on its own/empty in my playthrough. I ignored it and continued the game normally, but now I'm aware that's supposed to contain the sword Zantetsuken. The thing is I don't know why the chest is empty in my playthrough because from reading the this thread, the bug was reported and fixed in October last year, and I first downloaded the patch this February before updating to 1.5 a couple of days ago(I still haven't finished the game yet). To note, I originally went through the castle in the previous version before 1.5, and recently checked again from an older save file in the current version and find it still empty. And if it helps, I did Cyan's dreams before this and the only things left to do are the Fanatics Tower, Roccabara Island, and Gilgamesh before Kefka.
This is my first time properly playing through FFVI from beginning to end, and I thought the opened chest is for a story reason so I didn't think much of it until now. While I personally might not use the sword and doesn't want go down to the castle again, I thought I should mention this just in case.
