Look at 3:36 Skin, filets, specific subdivisions of legs and skin. You can directly use every single think on that board. And that means: You can directly use every single part of the bird, except for the head. Filets for a variety of dishes. The Knees for skewers. The Livers, hearts etc. for some interesting skewers and stirfries. (Hint: Chicken liver will give bolognese a WONDERFULL flavour) Skin-skewers or Fried rice with chickenskin. Drums for BBQ. The only thing left is the carcass and that can give you either a BEAUTIFULL chicken soup or, when slowly cooked over hours can give you a brilliant Chickenstock. Heck: You can go further and (if you have alot of chicken bones and carcasses) make chicken demiglace. Using every single part of an animal, even the innards. This is how it should be done.

For anyone wondering what type of knife he is using for the butchering process, it is a knife style called Honesuki, multiple variations of this style of knife exist. But it is typically forged as a single beveled knife with an accentuated dullness on the heel of the knife for bones and tougher sinews. The "higher" length on the heel helps for this sort of task while it drastically tapers very quickly into a pointy detailed oriented knife for actual cutting / precision work around the bones.

The first time I read the word "Yakitori", it was from a book that said a Japanese general ate yakitori made with the liver of an American soldier. After watching this video, it is hard to believe that the Japanese used to be cannibalistic during World War II. And in the video, the chef mentioned yakitori became popular in Japan after World War II, which frightened me by thinking about why it became popular after Japan lost the war.
