Jion (慈恩) kata effective bunkai 9 - Tettsui uchi and other

This video is from the series about Shotokan Kata in which we are going to demonstrate Jion kata Oyo bunkai. Demonstrates by Alexandr Matiushevskij (7 Dan). In this video we finish the analysis of Jion Kata. Next up are Jitte and Jiin. These 3 forms are one group of Kata, essentially the main form of Jion, and the other two are complementary.
Our demonstration is of course for Black Belts. Junior belts are recommended to practice Bunkai more directly, closer to the movements of Kata, for example, as was shown in educational films and books by master Nakayama.
Bunkai can be different even for those who have been studying karate for more than one year. Why? Well, firstly, we are all trained differently, some practiced more, some less, the techniques may simply not work out if there is not enough practice, so the choice will be only on the simplest ones. When the technique does not work, it is correspondingly inconvenient and the person does not feel the strength in it, which means he will not be able to use it.
The second reason for the difference is the very understanding of Kata, or rather its misunderstanding. Many different techniques are invented based only on some similarity to the movements of Kata.
Such techniques will, of course, differ, but their main feature is that they do not work in a fight. For people who follow this “path”, Katas are usually presented as sets of chaotic movements; they do not see logic and consistency in them.
Why do there still be differences in Bunkai even among those who understand the Kata correctly? Understanding depends on the order in which the forms are studied.
For example, Jion techniques are not particularly complex in their basic meaning (see Nakayama). But if Bassai was studied before Jion, then Bunkai Jion will be different. Since knowledge of Bassai influences Jion, and vice versa, of course. Those. The sequence of learning Kata greatly influences the understanding of each form.
