Why does that guy in black look like the samurai's face described in japanese arts😂

Ich stimme überein, dass ein kurzes Schwert in Räumen oder auch Dickicht (zb Wald) von Vorteil ist. Ich teile aber nicht die Meinung, dass ein langes Schwert auf offenem Feld immer besser ist. Ja, die Kraft hinter dem Hieb ist größer und kann eine kurze Klinge überwältigen, aber ein geschickter, kreativer und vor allem an seiner Waffe trainerter Krieger kann die Reichweite umgehen und wenn er einmal den Wirkungsbereich einer Langwaffe hintergangen hat, kann ihm der Gegner kaum noch etwas entgegensetzen. Unterm Strich: unterschätze nie deinen Gegner, rechne mit dem Unmöglichen und sei bereit dem Tod zu begegnen.

One of my favorite stories about O Sensei was from Trevor Legget who was studying karate in Japan and riding the subway when another rider began assaulting others. Legget, wanting to use his striking skills, pushed his way through the crowd and found the violent man lying on a seat with his head in O Sensei's lap, crying, as the great master stroked his hair like a child. Legget was embarrassed by his lack of ability and judgement in comparing himself to the great master.

Sorry, but this is stupid. All sword users, when slashing, slash in a diagonal direction, not vertical. You can't dodge it by just moving back your shoulder.

Its very hard for any of his students to really understand aikido its very rare to get to tht level of training

No one would ever get to fully understand Aikido like Terry did his students would never get there he was a rare human being supernatural in fact

Hello Aikikan - Thank you for posting these wonderful videos of Terry Ezra Shihan and making them available to the worldwide Aikido community.

Excellent video.

They could have made this a bit more challenging for the winning guy.

So did he got the job?

Shit movie

This teacher's Aikido looks different than your typical Aikido demo. He's a lot more direct and efficient and is actually in shape.

Chuck Norris's first gig, I see.

4:00 men when we find a good stick.

Oof, that reaction to the blue on blue incident was terrifically acted

A horrible joke being told over & over yet no one is laughing, because they aren't realizing a joke is told.

"we caught you lackin'.... nikka." "you dont want this smoke."

I haven't seen this movie but the use of the katana was weak and far from reality. You can see real sword fighting in Zatovichi and Hidden Blade movies. And professionally in the movie Hidden Blade

I would have loved to dated a samurai. They are so hot!

The auto translated English subtitles are equally as worthwhile as the scene itself 😆

the dude beating everyone looks like a Japanese Jim Lahey. IYKYK.

Just goes to prove, it’s not the length of the tool but the power of the stroke

Too funny ..they never seem to attack using a sideways strike

サムライに､楯は無用 柔道は、剣術の形

Why do they scream like gorillas in their every hit? Shouldn't it be a silent "Ei!" according to Miyamoto Musashi?

And a good time was had by all

A wonderful movie. I saw it so many times and it's always a sheer pleasure.

wanted to like it, the final duel sucked

AM I ONLY ONE WHO WAITED THEY BOTH STARTS FLYING DURING THE FIGHT?

室内は脇差し小刀が有利だし、真剣同士は鍔迫り合いや接近戦は有り得ない。

Rubbish

Brilliant💕The last Kurosawa's script.

なんか最近流行ってるっぽいとにかく刀をぐるぐるブンブン振り回してる洋画系のアクションシーンでは、この緊迫感とカッコよさは出ないかな

I liked this movie He was caring about his wife which was a unusual depiction in Japanese samurai movies

ここからが本当の地獄

コレなあ。。。主人公が悪の側っていうのが切ないのよなあ。

蝉の声が切ない

日本語のコメントは馬鹿ばっかりだな。恥ずかしいわ。

He was just trying to spread the good news about Jesus 😞

小太刀を使うのか。妙だな。

本来なら共闘すべき二人が切り合うというのが切ないんだよな

I saw this movie. Is based on a Kurosawa's script about a master swordsman Ronin in search of work who accept duels with swords made of wood, gaining the bets money. The samurais here are after him accusing of cheating. He tries to dissuade them to fight but in the end he wipes them all.

damn, only fighting with a wakizashi. epic.

Someone should of brought a Bow and Arrow...?

And this is why you don't play with long knives.

Couldn’t find this film on dvd in europe😢

この手の話はいつも峰打ちで生かして置くからまた問題がおきる。皆殺しにしちまえば後腐れも無く、全員殺すからなんか言われても｀さあ知りませんな｀で通るじゃん。

Mineuchi is the act of striking an opponent with the peak on the back of a non-double-edged sword such as a Japanese sword. It is also called Muneuchi, and it is sometimes written as Tosebeuchi in both readings. Note that hitting with the side of the sword is called hirauchi.　(Wikipedia)
