    Given that (Fake) Kojirou and our Musashi can replicated true magic through their sword techniques alone, I had this headcanon/theory that the actual duel between PHH Musashi and PHH Kojirou may have resulted with one of them reaching the void and have a DATA LOST-like scenario which *'could'* explain how a Kojirou doesn't physically exist but the memory of his name carries on.
    But hey, that's just a theory...though it does loosely give a justification on how Musashi (Summer) would have memories of actually duelling Kojirou in her world since the outcome of that duel happened differently.

      because kojiro died long before musashi did. She died due to the flames, her last action was saving the Master. For it to be a draw, both would need to die simultaneously. Which didn't end up happening, so musashi still won either way.

    The TH-cam channel Ask Shogi covered the topic of their duel in his Musashi video, where he makes an interesting and incredibly controversial assertion that Sasaki Kojirou was lynched by Musashi and his students due to some political fervor (which I was reminded of when I watched your video here). His channel is mostly about bringing up Japanese interpretations to culture and history, like how apparently the last samurai, starring Tom Cruise, is an impressive and widely admired film for Japanese people because of Cruise's insistence of bringing on actual Japanese actors, despite all of the anachronisms and glaring inaccuracies and other assertions that are more than stereotypical of western cinema interpretation of Japanese culture. Shogi does this thing where he brings up some of his talking points and repeats them a couple of times, that controversial thing I mentioned as one of them. After all, he posed this assertion as a historical fact in that video, I was a little concerned when I was reminded of that topic when watching your video.
    So I did a brief search mostly because my tired self loves staying awake when I see conflicting/conflated statements in history/historical fiction. I may or may not need help, but that's a me problem for tomorrow's me.
    About the duel, there's some contention about how the duel between the 2 happened, or even how the duel played it. One being that Kojirou tripped on a rock, and Musashi got him while he was still down and breaking his rib piercing the lung; another where Musashi deflected with the improvised bokken while Kojirou was going through the motion of that famous technique, then also using his own blade to pierce Kojirou doing the broken rib through the lung again; another one, being the most brutal, is Musashi dodging the blow and losing his headband to the swallow reversal, and cleaving Kojirou's skull in 2 as a returning blow, and the most Hollywood level shit I visualized as I read it. All that in Kojirou's Wikipedia article- pretty wild shit, even if fictional.
    As for the alleged lynching, there's 2 instances of "citation needed" in that claim, including the supposed claim of the author and friends of that statement. I tried to find that statement by trying to go outside of wiki and looking for that author, but nothing. I am a bit concerned that a different channel of some prominence is making such a wild claim that can't be backed by proper sourcing.
    Just thought this was pretty fun, still.

    I believe thay in a deeper sense duels do test ones essence as a samurai because one has to put their all in a duel, but it should primarily be a test of skill in yheir weapon. I think musashi really pushed duels to easily kill/murder his rivals and to gain fame.

    The duel of Ganryuji went more or less the same as I heard it. Except Musashi had tried to leave Sasaki alive and when he tried to leave, Sasaki took a swing at his ankle. That is when Musashi killed him.
    Musashi, believed that fights were all about preparation. He acted like a drunk, wore old worn out clothes to make himself appear as an undisciplined broke vagabond. He showed up late to duels to get under his opponent's skin, however, there where accounts of people trying to set up ambushes at the duel location only to find he'd arrived hours earlier and ended up winning. There were two instances where his fights ended in a draw, and he nearly died to a man using a kisarigama. He ended up killing that opponent by throwing his wakizashi stabbing his opponent in the chest. Most of Musashi's duels were issued by his challengers not him.
    Sasaki was very much the opposite in appearance to Musashi. Sasaki was said to be a well dressed dignified swordsman. Supposedly the reason for Sasaki's challenge was because he thought Musashi tarnished the reputation of samurai. I really think Sasaki embraced the image of samurai of the edo period more so than the wartime samurai of the sengoku era. So while Sasaki seen samurai from a more romanticized perspective, Musashi was more practical. Again, it's all speculation since the historical records are basically a mess.

    "Unfortunate" doesn't begin to describe my duel, this art rewards blind luck and nothing else, I am beyond convinced at this point. After getting completely tooled by scheduling with my opponent changing times on me last minute and refusing to provide confirmation prior to the day of the match as to play times, losing this way somehow felt even worse than I had thought possible. My preparation was superior, my skill was superior, and I lost, so I don't see a reason to continue engaging in an activity where what is within my control is overwhelmingly outweighed by what is not.

      Yeah no. The thing is, the swordsmen back then lived by the Bushido code to uphold high integrity and mastery over katana. Though Kojiro knew Musashi's full of shit, at least he had honor within himself, no? Of course not, Musashi was a trickster who only cares for popularity and winning.
      What's done by Musashi was outrageous and shameless, and no wonder he fled right away scared as shit Kojiro's pupils would murder him. Before the code of Bushido, Musashi might as well commit seppuku for tainting the pride of swordsmen.
      Edit TL;DR: Musashi won the fight, but proven shitty to the core and is an embarasment amongst prideful swordsmen accross Japan.

      There's a lot of reasons for it, and a good amount of duels were non-fatal. In Kojiro's case he would lost after being struck first, but the oar broke a rib and punctured his lung. Reasonings range from gaining notoriety or promoting your school of swordsmanship, or in some cases just arrogance and honor seeking, or just wanting to test ability

      "Sasaki Kojiro" in Fate is nothing but a tale
      A fantasy, a folklore about a Samurai with peerless skill.
      But, as the Legend told, so does the hope of People for the Legend itself
      "Sasaki Kojiro" that got in Fate is just a mere nameless Samurai, a wraith unworthy of the title "Hero", but he does have the swordmanship that so peerless it become the technique that closest enough to be recognized as "Tsubame Gaeshi". He also use a Nodachi.
      In Short, "Sasaki Kojiro" in Fate is the closest Person to the description of "Sasaki Kojiro" (hell his technique even more skillful than the OG in legend)

    Cheating is cheating, nothing can justifies them. This, in fact, makes me doesnt want to pull on Musashi ever, since I'm alao knew the lore. If there any, Grand Saber should be the title for real Kojiro, the man who is real with his swordsmanship and keep polishing his technique.
    Being offended by Musashi's antiques were also normal. It's an act that tainted Bushido, whom fights with sole reason by putting integrity and techniques in high regards. Not by some trickery, nor cheats.
    To me, Musashi ain't living the Bushido code at all. That's when he, before those who walk the path of sword, the true loser amongst losers.
    For the record, Shuumatsu no Valkyrie/Record of Ragnarok pictured Kojiro in more bearable pov and with respect. Even Musashi are actually respected Kojiro's swordsmanship that he had to used cheap trick against the latter.
    Yet then again, Musashi is more popular in general and has boobs in fgo. Hence she'll always win.

    Imo Musashi won the fight but lost the duel. A fight has no rules, only survivors. A duel is to compare skill in a particular field, and therefore has rules to prevent proficiency in other fields from being used instead. If you cheat, you are admitting that you are worse at the skill being tested. Musashi was a better fighter, Kojiro was a better swordsman. That said, being a better fighter is not particularly meaningful, as Musashi’s victory via cheating is about as impressive as it would be for me to shoot Musashi at 10 yards with a shotgun. I think Musashi understood this, as you mentioned he stopped dueling to the death.
