Kenich was my first Martial arts anime next to DBZ which has little martial Arts. Anyway because of Kenichi, I now do Martial Arts and I use a skill that Shio Sakaki taught to Kenichi. Aim for the face, then when they block or flinch use your other hand to punch their stomach. This has actully worked for me.

@TsdsxSansTSSunStone3 жыл бұрын
I love the show and all but kenichi’s character bothers me for 2 reasons. Unaturally nice and annoying (to me) and he’s discriminatory against fema,e opponents. Now you might be thinking but tads dude what about sanji (one piece) you clearly like him as he is your pop and yet you hate kenichi when he does the same thing as sanji. Well yeah. Sanji isn’t the main character so we see it way less, Sanji reasons are far more justifiable due to the only people that really cared for him when he was young where female characters, until Zeffirelli’s came along, and sanji isn’t an insanely nice dude that tries to justify his reasoning with bullshit logic. He just doesn’t hit women because his father would kill him self if he did (Zeffirelli’s said that but I’m not sure if he would actually do it) and so he was conditioned never to hit women. TLDR: I don’t like kenichi because he’s sexist and too nice and just because I like sanji doesn’t mean I like kenichis sexist stuff. That’s a terrible tldr....whatever.

Huge Hajime no Ippo fan. I’ve read every chapter of every issue. For those who liked the anime, I highly recommend the manga because there’s a shift in focus on the effects of boxing. I really like the change from their boxing careers to the boxers themselves and how they deal with the built up damage from past matches. Also if you want more boxing anime/manga, give Ashita no Joe a try. It’s more about the life of Joe, who is a boxer, rather than boxing itself, but it’s still a nice read and the series takes it’s time to focus on the basics.

The thing I love about Baki is that it kind puts a lot of martial arts into a different perspective. Ofc it's way over the top in a lot of fights, but at the same time the commentary explains things in a way that makes it easy to digest and understand the situation. Something I liked, when Ali Jr. had his match, Baki was watching. He was asked what he thought about boxing, most people saying it was incomplete, because it didn't have any kicks Baki counters that it does have kicks, but the kick is toward the ground instead of his opponent. I liked this a lot, because it shows how boxing, even though it's dissed by many people compared to other arts, is still a martial art and is just as valid as the rest. Boxers use their full body in a fight, and just because it isn't hitting someone, that doesn't mean that body part is useless. Just like Hajime no Ippo, it also explains to younger or less experienced boxers about how the body is supposed to work. Another thing I like is the quote "what's the point of martial arts if someone who's weak can't use it" This made so much sense to me. Anyone who's strong can fight and win against most people, but the weaker people can absolutely win in a fight with the right techniques. ... Though that guy did force a draw by dying on command so, you know...

Going with the idea of weak people using martial arts, that's one of the things Kenichi brings up as well. One of the first things introduced in the show is the idea that martial arts weren't created by strong people in order dominate weaker people, but rather were created by weaker people as a way to defend themselves from and even defeat naturally stronger opponents.

There is one special attack by rock lee that does a combination moving arround the oponent, i copied that one too...

I just returned to judo after 5 years hiatus and few days ago experienced that seikuuken thing. I was sparring against brown belt (I'm green, but currently closer to yellow tbh) and for a while it was going well, but here's the thing: I have anxiety disorder and it probably worked first time as intended. Combined with my previous knowledge of the sport I got the sensation that there was this zone around him and no matter how I try to penetrate it, he could block it and straight up kill me if he wanted. You can probably guess what the role of that disorder was in last sentence. After that I completely lost my ability to attack because what did our ancestors do in that situation: either run away or submit. I don't remember experiencing that before so I guess my mental illness, which I think is probably more malfunction of that primal survival instinct, made me more sensitive to that. And no, of course I literally didn't see a bubble of energy around him, I'm not THAT insane. Best part is that I described that phenomenon in very similar way to that manga even before I found this video. I think that's testament to how accurate that part of the manga is.

For those interested in checking out Street/gang fighting I highly recommend the Out! manga series by Makoto Mizuta. Good plot, great fights mixed up with real life stories from a guy who went to juvenile prison and try to get away from fights while on parole. Though the fights tend to get a bit exaggerated on the end, it really nails the concept of dirty fighting and tactics, so anyone interested in that might find it entertaining as well.

Hajime definetely, it fleshes out techniques way more and actually explains combat concepts, it actually gives you knowledge. Megalobox is a remake/spinoff of Nashita No Joe, and while the drama is good, and the fightings intense, combat explanations are not deep and you don't get actual knowledge from it, you're just in for the ride; it's like watching a Rocky movie.

Kenji is my personal favorite manga about martial arts. It's a manga about the journey of a Japanese boy named "Kenji" who is a practitioner of Bajiquan. His grandfather teaches him Bajiquan then leaves for China and then begins the journey with descriptions and presentation of various fighting styles. Some of the styles featured are Western Boxing, Shotokan-ryu Karate, Hung Gar, Chen style Taiji, Tanglang quan, Shequan (Snake style Kung Fu) and even rare styles like Shaolin Xinyiba and Xinyiliuhequan. It's a great manga that's very popular amongst Bajiquan practitioners (myself included) but definitely for the Martial arts enthusiast and even student

Just thought it was cool hearing someone else mention bagua and the imperial styles from avatar since its a pretty old martial art style so i thought I'd say something.

One good anime like atla is mob psycho 100. It doesn't have any martial arts but it does capture one core aspect of it:self improvement. The mc is a guy stuck in his she'll called Mob who was gifted with psychic abilities but one day as a child accidentally hurts one bully so he hides his emotions to keep himself in check.but throughout the story you see him develop into a competent adult. What i love about this series is that mob doesn't have any great thing going for him besides his superpowers. He is gifted but he never worked out before so when he starts training he totally sucks. What's impressive about mob is that it has superpowers yet it is more grounded than most shows without them. Mob doesn't have any instinctual feeling for this and by the end it's not like he becomes a top athlete . He just becomes better. And I love this. I highly recommend it . Its currently on it's 3rd season with 12 episodes each.
