In the first arc, when Enbos fights the pack of wolves, there was actually a subtle buildup to the moment his sword dramatically breaks. If you look carefully at the status screens, you can see the quality of his sword degrading over time.

As many of you are aware, I've been wrestling with the health and mana bar problem ever since the site updated. However, only now did I realise I could have done something like this all along:
