Musashi vs Katayama yuuki

[@dpeasehead]

After enduring an interminably long blistering stare contest with his opponent, our hero Musashi finally dropped the stick wielding hobo with a single strike, and thus reclaimed the title of the most unkempt ronin in Japan.

[@vitorshaolin]

[@agetensix175]

interestingly, according to legend, Musashi never took a bath. apparently, he was ambushed or he ran into an enemy or three while taking a bath several times, buck naked and unarmed. so, he swore off bathing entirely as an excuse to always carry his sword with him XD

This is where the "80% talking and explaining fight mechanics and the strengths and weaknesses of the characters and 20% being actual fighting" rule in anime comes from.

[@bigmonke2899]

Only its a pain in the ass in anime but enjoyable in the old movies. If this was an anime the background voice would say a lot more and the characters would be constantly talking about their emotions, believes and backstory and would brag about their fighting style and whoever is cockier about it, will usually loose.

[@Salamandra40k]

I think you misunderstand the actuality of Japanese Philosophy. Mfs would talk about talking about talking about fighting, and then use that talk to make a poem describing the thoughts on the talk about talking about talking about fighting.

[@Clark_808]

He said this dumbass is waiting for that leaf to hit the ground and hes too close to do any other strike all he can do is counter

[@starflakmyriad5394]

Of course, when Musashi realized that his opponent could read his mind, Musashi knew instantly that he would be victorious in this battle. He knew this because Musashi never fights with a set plan or strategy: he reacts to his opponent spontaneously and naturally. Meanwhile, his opponent is fixated upon the external world for his cue when and how to attack. In a strange way, his opponent's greatest strength is also his greatest weakness. When the leaf touches the ground, Yuki strikes but Musashii instantly counters. The leaf is simply a symbol of the external world. Yuuki's strategy depends on studying his opponent, while Musashi employs the no-mind of Zen which is a mirror. Yuuki never had a chance. In his last seconds of consciousness, Yuuki asks if Musashi read his mind. Musashi replies that no, the leaf told him, meaning that it was Yuki's penchant for waiting for an external cue, i.e. reading someone's mind, that determines the outcome.

[@yegenek]

However, according to sources Musashi almost always devised clever strategies before entering duels. Arriving too late to anger or too early to surprise to gain the upper hand in psychological warfare. Also improvising a taller bokken from an oar and taking the sun behind him when confronting Kojiro this is a pretty elaborate strategy.

While Musashi and the master Katayama yuuki waited for each other to take action, a leaf fell between the two. Musashi was not distracted, but Katayama might be distracted, thinking that he would win first. But Musashi knew that when the leaf fell on the ground, Katayama would definitely take action, so he already knew of the best timing to deliver the killing strike.

On the one side they're saying reasonable things and it looks like it's trying to make an argument for logic, deductive reasoning and a world-view based on evidence... but at the same time they're saying that every human already lived several times as a "lesser lifeform" to even become human. And on top of that, they're really trying hard to look scientific but hilariously fail at that (e.g. equating consciousness with energy as defined by theoretical physics and even trying to link it to Newton's third law of motion). From what I see, it just a product of “too much thinking”, trying to justify what the author think about “truth”. Problem is, the author doesn't even understand the difference between existence and immortality and already has a pre-determined “truth”.

Wrong, Musashi wasn't unkempt and what you are talking about are Oni and they are not dirty men either.

Shout out to @marko19914 who I think explains well the "the leaf let me in" sentence, my interpretation of it as follows (probably everybody knows this by now and I'm repeating myself and everything but, if so please bare with me): I think the leaf represents the principle of what in Aikido is called Irimi, which is the idea of getting into your opponents blind spot while stepping forward, outside the line of attack of the opponent. This is done in order to not receive the attack and move into the open spot of your opponent after the strike as an advantageous attack position(although in Aikido this is used to perform the technique, not to attack). The leaf highlights the attack line, which is being telegraphed as well by Katayama's pose. Musashi realizes about this and he decides to go outside the attack line and forward, striking Katayama. "The leaf let me in" is a poetic way of explaining this and adding drama ofc. If I'm wrong please let me know, thanks haha.

[@marko19914]

You might be right about the stance telegraphing possible suichoku giri from jodan. Might have been carried away by the shinto mysticism in this sentence + I guess they Katayama replying to his thoughts as if they were said aloud would support that as well.

[@josetgomez]

Good! there is some truth there in that a technique is concern. However Minamoto Musashi main power for all his victories is the state of empty mind stale, like a true zen master. I think He is acting free and spontaneous to the challenge knowing that his mastering of body and mind will act accordantly. In this duel he did open the guard to his right side and wait for Katayama to strake first. Miyamoto Musashi moved to the right side to avoid the strake and in the same time passed the sword from the right to the left behind his head strait to the from head of Katayama. The leaf is a sort haiku for the state of freedom and spontaneity of the “empty mind” This how I see it (I practice aikido and the five stands of Miyamoto Musashi I hope I understood)

[@attiliomessina7701]

Yes, I think that you are right. The Aikido's (better Daito's) Irimi principle, in this case, is applied within the SenSen timing after Metsuke (deep looking) principle.

There are so many different ways to create that winning narrative, a person's creativity and spirit will naturally shine through. That's the art.

[@iSCORPIONNEXT]

The greatest swordsman that ever lived!! I didn't know he went against Tengu... Now I know!! B.A.M.F.

[@daviddavid5880]

Legend has it that when he was a teenager musashi defeated a sword-wielding tough with nothing more than a knife. The guy was a true mutant. Just naturally badass.

[@frankyb196]

What is the series tittle

[@Mayukh145]

I love the legendary samurai Musashi

[@zenchoctaw]

He let Yuuki come to him while Mushashi was engaged in one of the Five Stances, the Fifth Fundamental, and utilizing a "no thought-no concept". Mushashi's inner voice was a cue for Yukki to react...Mushashi realized this and became a mind of no thought. Having his mind not fixed is his advantage "...The effort not to stop the mind in just one place-this is discipline. Not stopping the mind is the object and essence. Put nowhere, it will be everywhere...If the mind is not restricted to just one direction, it will be in all ten." Yuuki waited for confirmation to attack, the fallen leaf hitting the ground ( a previous commenter's observation) and he announced it with his scream and step towards Mushashi. Yukki was over reached in his body. How wasn't Mushashi going to win?! And Yuuki's hair was a mess, LOL.

[@GLARELIS4LOL]

The man playing Katayama should have portrayed Musashi. Disheveled, unwashed and unkempt.

[@gregoryburris6374]

Keep them coming!! Need to find these movies... Have small correction. Love it! Greg (you can call me Red Dragon) lol.... Keep it coming man

[@The6thRonin]

That leaf just reminded me of the Serenity scene - I am a leaf on the wind

[@longclaw99]

Watch me soar.

[@jasonmcmurry1281]

The6thRonin .......killed with a big wooden splinter too.

[@rocketraccoon1976]

+ The6thRonin Uhhhh...that technique didn't work out so well in the end.

[@HosakaKeitarou]

Nooooo why'd you remind meee

How do Reavers clean their spears? They put them through a wash lol 🤣🤣🤣

"Did you see it?" "No, even the deaf could hear your stupid scream, SMH(in Japanese)"

[@davkahd46]

musashi never attacked twice he finish all the enemy just one attack that is why he become legend undefeated

[@mysticdragonwolf89]

When screaming fails to give you the blonde uptight hair and the super power boost of a sayien.

[@danieldb2222]

The typical demonstration of: "omae wa mou shindeiro" "NANI!" *The wooden sword wrecks enemy's head*

[@NLC309]

What is the name of this scene that this movie is from?

[@NirousPlayers]

musashi (2003)

[@patrickdalton3918]

Myomoto Musashi never lost any recorded sword fights, great swordsman.

[@1Ma9iN8tive]

Patrick Dalton - it is said he lost one sword fight ... against his ultimate opponent ... death itself

[@jwgoon]

Nope. He lost only one duel which was against Muso Gonnosuke. But he did win the first time round against him. In the rematch, Muso Gonnosuke came armed with a short staff called a Jo and defeated Musashi with it. And after that, Gonnosuke created his martial school called the Shinto Muso Ryu which focused on the use of the Jo. And is still being taught in Japan and around the world today

[@fsulongm]

@@jwgoon There is no evidence outside of the schools teaching Jo techniques, that would profit from such a claim, that a second duel ever even took place, let alone that Musashi was defeated. Whatever happened was 500 years ago, so without multiple sources independently claiming it, there is no way to reasonably conclude it as fact. It is much more likely that this did not happen than did. But, 500 years later, we'll never know.

[@sanesanchezs]

So they say, but I don't think it's entirely accurate. Legends are ordinary men, and great stories have a tendency to exaggerate astonishing feats.

[@fanatik471]

@@jwgoon no he is clearly recorded as no lost duals

[@chetankhera8478]

Superbly crafted

[@chivasteele]

Trying to add psychological depth with the reading thoughts and inner voice and so on. If you read Musashi's book, he is very unpretentious about his swordsmanship.

[@jbat1938]

Seeing as mind games are also a part of swordplay and effective combat, this is not about pretentiousness, nor is it even about mind reading; it's about the state of mind of the two leading into their duel. The one used a bit of trickery that he's probably used in countless duels since realising he was an imposing figure, pretending to read his opponent's mind, Musashi ignored his trickery, whose purpose was to create self-doubt and unnecessary mental static before their fight. Since the correct answer is either seeing through it or ignoring it, Musashi won out. The falling leaf bit was just to throw his nonsense back into his face in a way he'd be thinking about for years.

[@thanhtunguyen1596]

すみません、映画の名前は何でしょうか？誰か教えてくれませんか

[@j.j.4708]

@1:31 doesn't he actually say " a demon who no longer walks the path of humanity" instead of "an extraordinarily strong demon"?

[@douglassun8456]

Is this from a movie, or from a taiga drama?

[@jukethebox6879]

Gosh i had such a hard time finding out who was musashi, hes depicted different in many stories so i was unsure

[@crossfoot4612]

Same. Musashi wins this duel irl but from the looks of the characters and sword musashi was the one that lost in the video. Also why is kojiro holding a wooden sword also?

[@marsattack5194]

Did u have this entire movie or its name?

[@yugen]

I thought Musashi was supposed to be the large, dirty, unkempt figure?

[@xXDarkxIdealsXx]

Yeah i thought the same thing when i first saw this.

[@kataokasaga]

Same here

[@RandomDude-bo1lg]

who is musashi lol

[@heavymic8582]

Dallas Van Winkle he is musashi lost...historicaly not true tho

[@javigomez2508]

The one who wins. This is a scene from the Taiga Series "Musashi" with 49 episodes.

[@ParsleyPunch]

I love how he keeps killing people with a single bonk from a piece of wood

[@nathanlewis2681]

I've read the book. I thought Musahi to be the more unkempt one. Plus he would never fight from a frozen stance. You don't need to, so why put yourself at that disadvantage.

[@The_Custos]

The flow of his dual counter-attacks must have been a sight to behold.

[@roddangerson2046]

It was pretty amazing how he got that last question out right before the concussive damage build up maxed out and killed him

[@mistersimple1986]

Reading the book "Musashi" was one of the best decisions in my life, I learned a lot of useful things from it. No movie or series can ever reach the experience of reading it... Sorry for me bad english

[@retomoser8375]

Whats the name of the movie, and where can i watch the full?

[@robertogarcia1797]

Like if you own and have read " the book of five rings "

[@k.g.fitness2352]

Great book

Read it the first time in early seventies.
