Who Is NOT A Black Belt? Japanese Karate Sensei Reacts

[@oldcdog91]

I mean I admire the guy’s honesty, but if you’re not gonna play the game then don’t participate in the first place 😂

[@joeleek9976]

Yeah...that was just silly

[@kdefensemartialarts8097]

Ikr

[@ruihanazawa2906]

Ummm it’s staged for woke purposes. Everything was scripted and set up to have legit female black belts vs male beginners.

[@joeleek9976]

@@ruihanazawa2906 except that isn't what happened. The jiu jutsu practitioner was a legit black belt and he was a dude. The ratio of men to women there isn't perfectly balanced, but if that is your complaint I think you need a thicker skin.

[@ruihanazawa2906]

@@joeleek9976 This isn’t an issue about thicker skin. It’s an issue about it being real. What’s silly is that dude doing a Yakuza grovel bow with a scripted apology. Don’t tell me you believe it to be real? If so you need a reality check.

[@djoetma]

I'd be interested in a Japanese version, but maybe a more serious one. So just karate people, and the non-blackbelts still need to be practitioners of karate. There are some really talented beginners who within a short period learn to move really well, so it could be more challenging.

[@dirgniflesuoh7950]

What a black belt " is" differs a lot, and it is sort of an infected debate at times. A Japanese version of this would be fun though!

[@senbonzakurakageyoshi662]

Different from your style, your organisation of the style and even from the dojo is. I don't see the black belt level the same way you do, and it's not the way sensei Waku does too.

[@dirgniflesuoh7950]

@@senbonzakurakageyoshi662 I am not sure what you mean, I just know that what it takes to get a black belt is different, depending on art, style or dojo. The syllabuses are of course different, tests are different, what is considered important in the material differs, and what the level of black belt is supposed to be. Some black belts are considered less valid by others, some are more held in awe, but it is usually a bit rude to question an actual person's diploma and belt to his or her face. Then a black belt may also have periods when they are sick, have a lot of work or other things that gets them out of shape, for some time, or just leave it behind forget a lot, and perhaps begin again at beginner's white. The views on this differ. What I was wondering about was how are the contestants for this show picked? The "fakes"? A person may be training for the black belt test, or the one before that, and actually have trained for longer, and more, than some of the black belts, and some learn very fast, some do not.

[@Froge4291]

@@dirgniflesuoh7950 but there is 2 "counter" arguments i personally have 1: a "standard" for a black belt is that they should ATLEAST have the knowledge and the ability to correctly execute the fundementals in whatever martial art (which in all fairness all martial arts have a diffrent set of fundementals) 2: while going out of shape or the athelete not being in their prime will hinder their preformance, there is always the technical knowledge that a "black belt" has optained which you will clearly see when they demonstrate a technique of some sort (unless you want to point to a former "black belt " who quit martial arts all together where, no disrespect but they are probably back to the level of a white belt)

[@ajshiro3957]

I find it odd that the hapkido person didn't demonstrate any hapkido locks or throws. And it's funny how they doubt the BJJ guy. Meanwhile... very funny kiais from these people

[@117MasterSpartan]

This is a great video! I love watching you react to martial arts stuff. I was also thinking if you could make the screen for your reactions a bit smaller? As it takes up quite a bit of space

[@StrikeThunder]

I can't wait for the reaction. The whole thing felt like a drama with no editing rofl

[@andret3739]

I really dig your idea of making your own version of this, it would be pretty interesting to watch

[@borisdelic3379]

Extreme martial arts are for show only. I hate to see their influence in cobra kai season 4

[@Penitent__Thief2857]

Can’t wait for this!

[@carlosgranah]

American dojos are notorious for having different standards for a black belt. What I don't like is that TKD style was repeated. A shodan or 1° black belt degree means you know your basics well are now ready to start serious training. Black belt does not mean you are a master. Most styles consider that you are a master when you reach 4°degree black belt.

[@MrJacobrezac]

Touching on the blue haired girl, some taekwondo organizations do extreme martial arts like hers. Where I go, we have multiple weapons we learn to do extreme martial arts with.

[@cliff9101]

I’d like a Japanese version of this where it’s based purely on the “performance” instead of any group dynamics, debating or drama

[@mattalvarez1146]

Another giveaway is the uniform. In TKD, once you pick up your black belt, you wear a dobok with the black v-neck

[@Metawraith]

That may be true of some schools, but that is definitely not a standard one can use.

[@floydhill9265]

I watched this, and hated the whole premise. In the US the vast majority of "black belts" are bought. Very few are earned.

[@spencerpops7398]

I would have voted for Jessica when she said “studio” haha

[@cowlico]

I would have said I believe you are a black belt but you're the typical TKD black not knowing what school of TKD you come from, she did Keumgang which is a second-degree poomse so she's from a WT program.

[@Apaep12]

Saw this already believe me this will blow your mind guys....

[@littlepear72]

I think you should do a Japanese version of this!

[@jrtgaming6404]

i kinda knew it was gonna be Jessica because she was the only one kinda out of shape and also when she didn’t know her technique when she got asked

[@gladiumcaeli]

That would indeed be something fun to watch, who is a black belt japan edition XD

[@joelquebec]

The girl with the sword, NOT kendo or kenjutsu. It's just sword-play. The nunchaku, also just a show and no effective usage of the weapon.

[@alpachinko9154]

Yes! Please do your version - it would be very interesting, I think.

[@jayve4433]

I think some ATA TKD schools do some extreme martial arts, and probably I’m sure some other martial arts schools probably do to, mostly karate ones I think

[@dannejoon]

THAT'S A SUPER GOOD IDEA! I'd love to see you take in different japanese blackbelts in martial arts!

[@Samperor]

You should do something similar to this in Japan! It will be awesome.

[@anthonykargoglou7205]

Definitely to that. It would be cool to see how skill differs between black belts lf different countries

[@TheSeeking2know]

Do it !!! Great video .

[@Peter-wj2hz]

I think if we were going to do a Japanese version of this, it would be great. Maybe instead of the nebulous "black belt," it could be 3-dan or something like that.

[@marioulloa2593]

In taekwondo the uniform is called a Dobok

[@zzenishim]

why is everyone wanting a japanese version karate is okinawan not japanese

[@jacobtooley8688]

I asked this in the another video just out of curiosity are you excited for the studio Ghibli theme park? is it true its opening up in November

[@adancontreras9396]

Now I want a reaction video to Xtreme martial arts

[@danielrenault]

Hi Sensei. What happened to bloodsport part 2? you promised for Saturday :(

[@md.shahriarsakib6394]

Watching from Bangladesh🥋

[@Icewolf81]

Your question was funny. Why she got her glasses on. I think because she could not see without. 😅😂 I always got glasses on at my dojo. I got bad eyes.

[@meairsoft8296]

Keith's got that hey girls wanna get a drink vibe

[@mastork5453]

The thing is black belt depends on the school. Some people think oh you have a black belt does that mean you mastered everything??

[@wlgaming4990]

I respect you Sensei, i am a green belt Karate student and I believe that your analysis is technically correct, i was also suspicious of Keith, i remember in a tournament to get the next belt which was Blue i had to break wood and broke it at the first try, Keith wasn't able to break it in like 2 tries, so he was kinda SUS

[@kdefensemartialarts8097]

I think this would have been more interesting if each person was a black belt from a different country.

[@pontaman888]

Keith is a blackbelt in simp-jitsu for sure

[@TheFinancialAdvocacyPodcast]

Yeah... is Owen Morgan in Cobra Kai (Bert) a real black belt... or not? (He has a black belt, but I don't believe it.)

[@TrueSighted]

Its funny. All this to spot the black belt, like its an ending point, when its only proficiency in a full given art, and a beginning to more advanced training. 😁 Its an important step, but the just the first whole rung on the ladder. Everything before thats, just a level of knowledge on the way to that first step. A fractional belt. All are important, but still just the beginning.

[@BlaireBustillo]

Do something like this Sensei :D

[@Aoitori365]

another good video

[@7BlueDodger]

The girl with the blue hair is bluetiful 😂😂😂

[@omkarp1629]

Hlo sir , if you don't mind can you plz tell us , all kata accordingly the belt Like , to get yellow belt we need to learn haiyan shodan Like this ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😇😇😇😇😇😇😇❤️❤️

[@Froge4291]

Kata orders are non standard from organisation to organisation or from dojo to dojo but what i can tell you is the order in my dojo and my organisation which is White and yellow belt: • Taikyoko shodan (also commonly known as "kihon kata") • shodan (in Wado ryu it is named pinan nidan) Orange and green: • Heian/pinan nidan (in Wado ryu it is called pinan shodan) • Heian/pinan sandan Blue (some also have purple in the system): • Heian/pinan yondan • Heian/pinan godan • Tekki/nihanchi shodan Brown (there are many katas in the brown to black belt grading, some add more, some have less but here are the bare minumum that a brown belt needs to memorize to attempt a black belt): • Bassai/passai dai • Jion • Empi/wanshu BUT if a brown belt is also working to compete in kata tournaments they might include some of these katas in their repritoire: • Kanku/kusanku Dai • Kanku/kusaknku sho • Sochin • Gojushiho sho • Unsu • Gankaku/chinto

[@brandonmaldonado7008]

[@MrLolx2u]

... How... Hapkido has almost the same skillset as Karate except the incorporate high kick stances into it and suddenly you think the Hapkido girl, who successfully pushed the guy away with a powerful side kick isn't a black belt? Waku.... Are you drunk on Sake?

[@YetMoreCupsOfTea]

That sword routine was... pure movie stuff? Seemed less like martial arts, and more like 'performance'.

[@koraegi]

A lot of stunt actors do martial arts

[@toughfff712]

Lol, everyone has the same reaction to Keith.

[@kewnst]

id love to see a japanese version .

[@JSN723]

It’s arguably sad that they thought the guy demonstrating a legit triangle choke was fake… kinda shows their lack of knowledge beyond point sparring and weapons demonstrations and forms.

[@cochese95]

Yeah but if you go into a BJJ class and they’re doing triangle chokes that day you’re going to learn that technique and be able to demonstrate it if you were paying attention. If he did something a little more fancy then it would be a lot less questionable. I know how to do a decent triangle choke and have only done a limited amount of BJJ.

[@JSN723]

@@cochese95 Totally true, it's just a bad situation. If he tries to show them a gogoplata or the set up to like a twister or a more rarely seen move, it will go over their head.

i thought it was the blue haired girl i havent seen any sword martial art like it. but ive never looked into Taekwondo so thats it i guess.

[@Burvedys]

To me, American and Martial Arts go hand in hand like a kebab with some milk (i.e. with the same result out).

[@mick3520]

I hoped that you would react to this. And now it happened

[@cochese95]

I thought the girl with the glasses techniques looked good. I wouldn’t have picked. It is kind of weird that she was wearing her glasses. Does she train like that? Totally obvious was the last one. If you are a black belt you should know history about your style.

[@Metawraith]

Unfortunately, very few American black belts are taught anything beyond physical techniques and movements, so it's actually quite realistic for this to happen. The primary reason is that most American black belts become such as children and then are never given anything else to aspire to beyond that point.

[@giboron]

yes do it

[@GeeTBase]

Most American "martial arts" is so embarrassing to watch. Flashy moves, kata, weapons handling, screaming as loud as you can, breaking boards, it's all such a joke. There's no actual technique being taught, no actual self defense, no proper training/coaching and many times, it's lead by some random guy who never actually got a black belt in anything and is just pretending that he did, because he liked Bruce Lee movies growing up and realized he can make money by teaching kids whose parents will pay lots of money for their kids simply to be involved in some kind of extra curricular activity, which the teacher can talk up, saying that it will teach the kids "discipline", "respect", and "honor", meanwhile, little to none of those things are actually taught. Sorry, I'm just getting annoyed even thinking about it.
