The exponents throwing their swords down and running at each other? That's to simulate their swords broken on the battlefield. Something that can likely happen. And as to why it looks slow. Any of you worn a full yoroi and tried to move and fight in it? I guarantee you that you definitely won't look like an anime samurai fight
@wheresthecorporal I can also understand the idea of an iaito for training. It sure feels different than a bokken. More close to the real one but honestly.. i wouldn't spend 1500 for a sword, which just pretends to be a real sword and with which you can't even get into real contact in partner training.There were no iaito in feudal japan. Bushi had to train straight from the beginning with real blades or bokken. But thats just my 5 cent. Everything that works for you is good.
@wheresthecorporal I wouldn't even allow someone else to touch my blade, which was only made for me. A friend of mine has a 10.000 euro Nihontō. I honestly envy her. Still i think the cheap shinken are great for practising since they are expendable but still good. I can't retrace how you could hurt yourself with it. I only use it when practicing alone, with a teammate i use a bokken. I've heard a story of a "master" hurting himself by drawing a sword and found it pathetic
@wheresthecorporal Mh thats a good reason not to make it more realistic by acting like they slip out of your hand and fall to the ground but may i ask what iaitos are good for? Spending 1500 is quite a bit, regarding that its a blunt sword only and you can already get a proper cutting one for 300-400€. Mhh.. i train traditionally with a bokken but since everything is a question of protection (especially against thrusts) i have yet to found a sword which fits the requirements.
@wheresthecorporal How exactly can you hurt yourself when you do a choreography with a iaito? It's an honest question. It's pretty much normal in medieval fighting that people spar without any choreography with blunt metal swords. I'm just saying that you better dont handle a shinken if not for the purpose of cutting something or someone and that i'm disappointed that the show isn't as realistic as it could be. Losing your weapon or laying it down are two different things
@wheresthecorporal Every school has it's right to exist but to the eye of the beholder - even to one's who's not only there for entertainment as possibly 90% of the viewers but actually has indepth knowledge of the fighting techniques and history of the samurai - this looks unintentionally ridiculous. Like the scene where both drop their swords to start wrestling. Its completely unrealistic. Regarding the speed: after all its choreographed. I would have expected more
I've been looking for Jiu-jitsu moves in Samurai armor forever! thank you!
Great demo! I love the classical styles. Simple, practical, and safely practiced.

my god they do everything so slow its just hilarious
It is for safety. An injury could end one's career as a Samurai... meaning starvation.
idk wats up with them putting down their swords & running at eachother but ok

まあ、武術を理解できない人間にはそう見えますわな。
行動の合理性が感じられない。何で刀を置いたの？一騎打ちにせよ乱戦にせよ、闘いの最中にこんな風に刀を置く場面なんてあったのかな。
戦いの最中にこんな風に刀をおくなんてあり得ないですよね
その通りです。しかしそこで思考が停止してしまっていますね
普通に考えてあり得ないことをしているのだから、その型に秘められた裏、事情があるのでは？
と思いませんか？
ロイ
訓練で本当に刀を折る必要ある？
置いてもいいじゃん別に。
