Fun factoid: note how the blade is sheathed — with cutting edge facing up.

Rurouni Kenshin taught us that the first stance beats all others. Battousai always wins.

I did sword and shield stuff when I was younger (Metal weapons display group) Never that skilled, never that graceful. (Did not even know hitting people with swords had names for different moved.)

I cut you so bad, you wish I no cut you so bad.

I mean for them, clean, good cuts are what they're graded on. Bad, rough cuts mean lack of skill. Obviously I'd hope for a good clean cut to reattach myself later (or lessen my suffering).

I blame the schools

That is why I prefer Kendo. You might get bruised with a bamboo sword, but you won't lose a body part.

This should come in handy if things get out of hand at Benihana's.

What about: boar rushes down the mountain? Cat
Crosses the courtyard? The heron on the stump? Sheathing the sword? Just remember: death is lighter than a feather. Duty is heavier than the mountain.

She’s choreographed with the lady across from her very well. The way they synced up their movements looks tricky.

I was taught never to look down while bowing. Different disciplines, different styles, I guess

2 months ago | Likes 11 Dislikes 1

There are two different bows. One is shallower where you keep your eyes on the opponent and the one that is deeper where you don't

2 months ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Keeping the neck straight like that should keep an opponent in peripheral vision just fine. This is not looking down.

Level of respect I believe. Look at your enemies while you bow. Leave yourself vulnerable with others. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

You cannot attack without moving feet, her eyes would looking at opponent feet.

“Never lower your eyes to an enemy” -Tatsu

But also my instructors are like “I’m not your enemy soooo go ahead and not stare at me while you bow

I don't know much about swordsmanship, but I do know The Wheel of Time series had a lot of named sword moves and stances. Skilled swordsmen knew those moves by name and when to use them.

Japanese stances can be quite similar. Yama-gamae means Mountain Stance.

Euro has similar stances like the falcon stance or high guarde.

what's the purpose of the footwork in #3? How does the weight transfer into the blade?

2 months ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

ok, so she would normally step into it, but she steps back for show?

2 months ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

The step.back looks to be her getting into position for the overhead vertical strike.
