They have anti armour weapons. No, a Katana, Tachi, Uchigatana or Odachi aren't really equipped with pommel or guards for smashing opponents but that was always an ineffective and last ditch tactic for Longsword, anyway. It's nowhere near as effective in the anti armour role as a dedicated weapon such as a mace, poleaxe, etc.

Even half swording or putting your full weight behind it won't make a longsword pierce through plate, dude. Just like European harness you'd have to go for weak spots in the joints.
