the dim glow lighting the audience makes heads look like distant city lights.

Even though I'm very skeptic about japanese swordfighting, I find this quite impressive. I'd love to see a sparring between those two swordsmen.

[@Lordofthenipplerings]

Kendo has real sparring experience. Their movements are more efficient. But they have little to no cutting experience and rarely handle real swords. Thus why their strikes and blocks may appear flimsy and weak, but it also leaves them less exposed.

@demsachewl Kenjutsu is not a branch of Ninjutsu , its a broad term which covers sword techniques in general

[@NamiwakiruX]

@demsachewl Sorry, I may have misunderstood. Kenjutsu is not a branch OF Ninjutsu, but Ninjutsu does practice Kenjutsu yes, broad term as mentioned, an yes Kendo means way of the sword in term

[@Okaruwazashi]

Ah, as far as I know he's right. Kendo (in the common usage of the word) is a sport, kenjutsu is an art derived from lethal combat. There is a serious difference. Which one is "better" depends on your goals.

[@GESPENSTPTX001RV]

This technique is not "Kenjutu", but "Juxtutejutu(technique of old style police button". Juxtute is the old style police button in Edo era.

[@bitspacemusic]

Beautiful.

If you read Koryu Books' essay, "What Is Koryu?" you'll find out.

[@Halofreakanoid]

I know that they are just showing off technique, but I'd like to see them practice full speed like ARMA, and see what that yields.

@bebbo170993 wtf? a Wakizashi is the length of a katana with an exaggerated curve

[@Peekingduck]

No, it's Jutte jutsu.

[@thechanpionofyugioh]

Whether it be thought of as kendo or thought of a kenjutsu, the main goal is to learn how to defend, counter, and strike while utilizing a blade. Guns are too depended. I can kill 20 people while a gun could kill 17 before running out of its clip. The old ways were indeed better, yet we call them primitive. Soon, modern day will call our ways primitive. We as humans evolve and forget the past, when we should impower it. The only difference between a marksman and a samurai, is there spirit.

[@warhammer1]

people don't go around having duels with real swords anymore... so pretty much Kendo is as close to a duel as most people get these days. What makes you think Kendo is separate from the above? Kendo = duelling without the death, blood and severed limbs.

[@hiphoplivs]

when did they banned men from carrying swords in japan, was it the end of the meiji era? or tokagawa era? my japanese history is all fucked up lol
