- Japanese Sword Expert, Toru Uchikado is back on Experts Try, this time with Kaz Kobayashi, a Japanese sword fight choreographer and Katana Expert. On this episode of Experts Try, they'll be recreating moves from the popular game "Ghost of Tsushima".
In 1274, a Mongolian invasion fleet led by Khotun Khan lands on the Japanese island of Tsushima. Jin Sakai joins with the rest of the island's local samurai, led by his uncle Lord Shimura, in an attempt to repel the invasion. The battle ends in disaster, with the samurai army killed, Lord Shimura captured, and Jin grievously wounded and left for dead.
Jin is found and nursed back to health by Yuna, a local thief, who informs him that most of Tsushima has already fallen to the Mongols. Jin storms Khotun's stronghold at Castle Kaneda in an attempt to rescue Lord Shimura, but is defeated by Khotun in combat and is thrown from a bridge.

Thank you for having us! Arigato🙏 I hope my honor didn't die at the temple... (please don't slap me 😉)
you guys were amazing pulling off these moves :) no need to be hard on yourselves for not doing a perfect kick :)
Impressive 👍👏
Replicating the moves of a game character is incredibly difficult because they are not bound by real physics. Yet you pulled it off incredibly well. Most impressive! In my eyes your honor is intact. Thank you for presenting your skills in the face of such a challenge. Arigato, Uchikado-san.
🖐️
You did a great job, about running part i think he keeps his head down to dodge the arrows, same think in modernwar keeping you head lower to avoid getting shot in the head
The only move I can recreate is sitting in a hot spring and reminisce about all the mistakes I made...
@Player Zero you damn right cant forget the saki

4:50 nope, he's far from perfect, specifically his kick is weak and has little power behind it, which he honestly admits.
Overly humble people be like:

When performing move: 😡
When explaining move: 🙂
Idk, the duality is just very amusing.

With strength comes humility my friend
You were on your way to a haiku there until the last line
4:37 this guy is so critical of himself. His perfomance is so great and he seems like a very nice person.
When the one guy who did the Spearbreaker combo said his kick wasn't as good as he wanted. That was about as perfect a roundhouse type kick I've ever seen. These guys must strive for true perfection.
@@johnnycoolguy9554 not a roundouse kick but doesn't matter, i think he is so critical bc we fighters like to be perfect a lot of times
Its called being japanese 😂
These guys should be in the upcoming Ghost of Tsushima movie
There’s a movie??

@@AJARyan-yn2uv oh shit even better

@@Adam-hs9ft holy shit that's going to be awesome
Set to be released on February 11, 2022 if anyone wanted to know
@@Lownerzzz thank you I will be looking forward to it
The combat in this game is so satisfying because you feel the impact of the blade. It doesn’t just ghost thru the enemy, it gets stuck and has to be pulled out.
This is a really good approach to this kind of "experts react." Games aren't reality, things are going to be exaggerated for readability, or changed for balance, so having martial artists whose focus is on acting and performance try these from a performance perspective is very refreshing and acknowledges those differences, because similar differences also exist when exaggerating martial arts for readability or narrative in TV or film.
I second this. Some months ago I watched two architects complain about building in The Sims instead of enjoying the creative freedom a video game offers. And while some things are grounded in reality, most of the time media is nothing more than entertainment. If it was always "realistic", there would be no need to play a game, I could just go out and do it myself. Watching non-gamers suck the fun out of that idea makes me wary. But absolutely, these guys made the video both educational and fun, acknowledging the truths and the exaggerations equally without getting attitudes about it. Overall good vibes with people talking about the things they're passionate about.
@@jaynedodd5528how about civil engineering play city skyline? Or how an interior designer design their dream house from Minecraft? Professional still can do something fun and educative without "complainning" about games. Your viewpoint is shallow and limited.
*executes move perfectly*
“I look okay but I could’ve done it better”
Spoken like a true Japanese person.
What move is this
@@BlackFeather1214. spear breaker
🤣🤣🤣
Humility is a great quality.
Yep, they will never satisfied with themselves
The fact these guys are still critiquing their movements just shows how dedicated they are to their art. It's easy to watch and say 'I can do that.' these two are experts and they're still finding ways to improve or perfect the style.
I can already see so many Playstation people piling up here!
I wonder how strong Jin’s legs are that he can kick someone in the chest and send them flying like that. Like I imagine if someone kicked another person that hard in real life they’d be dead before they hit the floor
@@fist-of-doom487 well not nesacarly dead but defintly got a broken ribs.
@@fist-of-doom487 look up the worlds strongest man...cant remember his name off the top of my head...he can generate around 3.5 to 4 tons of force with his stronger punches.
The whole idea of a black belt is that the color will fade until it eventually is white again.
Full circle.
There's always more to learn.
I love how humble they both are, and the mindset they have of wanting to be better and practice more to get there. People often times give up too easily instead of just saying "I need to practice more."
You're the experts guys, I didn't even realize how well and realistic were the movements in the game until I saw your real movements. I'm speechless
Yes and no. Realistic cause they can be peeformed. As these men did beautiffly. Except you don't wanna kick someone who is wearing armor and holding a bladed weapon. You also wanna keep your sword forward for defense reasons.
@@gslinger19 Un true a lots of hema manuals and kendo manuals have kicks
@@baylego but probably not while having your sword pointing outwards toward the sun... for some reason?
Well, as they pointed out more than once, those swings were quite exaggerated which makes them not so useful. They weren't here to criticise so they didn't, but doable isn't equal to realistic.

@@cartrips9263 true
What a great comment haha!
These guys look like they had so much fun. Especially on the joint demonstrations. Loved this.
i could watch these guys do their staged fights for hours. especially when they fake die lol
The combat system in this game is so incredible, it feels so raw and fluid cutting people down.
The fact that this game is made outside of Japan and yet it's loved in Japan just proves how good this game is.
Ghost of Tsushima, made by the Americans, loved by the Japanese
DarkSouls, made by the Japanese, loved by the Americans.
i see this as an absolute win,..
@@riardomilos8014 an absolute win for QUALITY.
They did a lot to pay homage to one of their greatest resources, Akira Kurosawa.
All hail ainz ooal gown
Japan makes shit games
Jin sakai would be proud
He would
I mean no disrespect, but who is Jin Sakai?
@@cyanx14 lol he is the main character from ghost of tsushima
@@Highlanderedits Oh... Well that makes sense. I thought Jin Sakai was a japanese samurai master who passed away in real life.
Lord Sakai
They're all incredible recreations, but can we talk about Kazu's roll for a second? That roll was _clean_
I think Jin is using his kinetic vision a lot, which is why he often faces his head oddly or faces to the side. It's basically keeping your eyes relatively unfocused and centered, and using the corners of your eyes/vision to watch for movement. It's like keeping your vision wide instead of focusing down on specific parts and narrowing your vision (tunnel vision).
The only reason I think this is because I use my kinetic vision a lot too, mainly because my eye muscles are weak and is essentially stuck forward (I can't look to the corner of my eyes). If I wanna look to the sides or behind me I have to swing my head that way. I use my kinetic vision a lot while walking and when looking behind me.
I know I'm replying to a dead thread but that's exactly what I do when driving, makes me so much more aware of my surrounding while not being focused on one spot
It's used a lot when hunting or in the military. One exercise people use to develop it is to hold their hands all the way out to the side, then slowly bring them together and stop when they can just barely be seen in the peripheral vision. When someone has practiced this at random several times a day every day for a while, the next step is to randomly stop periodically and without moving the eyes, move your head left and right as slowly as possible. tl;dr it's a useful skill that people spend a lot of time training. I naturally do it anyway because I not only have terrible eyesight, I also have Asperger's which makes me very uncomfortable when I look directly at people.
@@asahearts1 Ah, yes. For some reason, I too am uncomfortable looking directly at people, so I usually end up just facing their way and looking at something else. This is probably why I'm very bad at remembering faces (coz I barely look at them lol)
@@ferofax In the case of people on the spectrum it's also that we have less working memory and our brains don't really pick up on faces as something important to remember to begin with.
Not really he just moves his head cuz that's where your looking with the joystick
Homie in the red is a goddamn assassin 😳. Bro he's so swift. He has such an understanding of his body's kinetics and movement it's crazy.
their only problem is physical limitations lol
@@justsomeordinarywatcher3146 muscles weigh you down
In reality we sadly cant have both, just need agood balance
@@alispeed5095 why not ask for both :)
That red and black was giving me Sith Lord vibes as well.
He moved effortlessly. Flowed like water.
This guys doing all this awesome amazing moves that I'd never be able to do and he's like "It was kinda sloppy I could've done it better"
Yah man you can tell his training philosophy sticks with him, always looking to do better!
That bushido code fam haha he could be perfect with form and execution and still be like "eh coulda been faster"
ikr he got it exactly right
True humility from a true warrior.
yeeeeaaah, but thats the humbleness of a martial artist (any artist really) for you
I love how the younger warrior gives praise and appreciates his older one ❤
For the piercing strikes, keeping the blade sideways does indeed prevent the blade from being trapped by the body. I learned this my first year studying under sensei Jeff Marsten. Particularly when stabbing to the abdomen and the abdominal wall, with any blade, in fact, the abdominal muscles contract and flex, and will clench down on the blade, making it hard to withdraw if you have stabbed with the blade positioned up and down, but piercing sideways prevents this as the flexing of muscle causes the blade to cut further preventing your blade from being trapped by your opponent's body.
It can also be a factor with the ribcage. The width of the blade, front to back, is bigger than the gap between ribs. Having the blade sideways decreases the likelihood it deflect off a rib, or if it does, it will be more likely to deflect up or down into a gap rather than to the outside.
I hope that these guys realize that they're every anime rival brothers material.
Totes
Kazu the one in red is definitely the villain
They could pull off a Jin and Mugen scenario pretty nicely.
@@giansanjuan1074 If done right that could make an awesome live action movie. I'd be happy with just a continuance of the original tho.
@@Hashbeast oh for sure. I'd definitely watch it and end up adding it to the dvd collection
Why are they so humble!? Like you could end me with a toothpick and they're here like "Ehh, I guess it was ok..."
It's kind of ironic actually in that acting humble is very much a part of that culture. So you actually get people trying to out humble everyone as a flex. So in the end it's not necessarily an expression of humility
@@KunjaBihariKrishna We live in a weird world.
@@KunjaBihariKrishna very true, i used to game with a group who were mostly japanese. They seemed really nice till i noticed the out humbiling each other bit. Like the girls constantly showing photos of themselves while saying how they are so under weight and should gain more when they received compliments. When in reality they look completely fine and actually never try to gain weight, they always talked about diets in private. And the guys were constantly giving 'gifts' to the girls while saying how its fine that they made more then enough money for it but im private they would make fun of those who didnt make as much money as them. Then someone else actually translated some of their conversations that were in japanese and turned out they were always trash talking the american gamers. Could have just been that group in pacticular but from my experience it seems to be the norm.
It's not a coincidence btw. Being humble helps to find your flaws and directions of growth.
@@SeIene in japan being really skinny for women is kinda a must and part of culture..so
The sheer discipline these guys demonstrate, unbelievable. Every move is perfectly choreographed. Incredible.
I know this was two years ago but in the off chance you see this: 9:00 the reason you see him duck his head and shoulders down like that is so he has greater protection against arrows while wearing his armor. An iron mask is useful, but the face is still the weakest part of samurai armor.
*Uchikado kills Godzilla
"I feel like I could have killed him better."
Thats dead on lol! Your comment is perfect. Cause it's true 😆 most samurai are competitive in combat cause it helps elevate them to a higher level of performance and it was the one way to prove to the leader that they deserved the best rank in their province... Not to mention, it would be hilarious being a warrior back then and hearing 2 samurai talking trash to each other after a battle... Haha!
The fact he managed to kill a creature that is immune to all of mankind's weaponry. Written in the lore. That is pretty scary.
Impossible
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This dude did these attacks so well, I'm proud that someone would take the time to remake these.

The video got 100X more fun when they started doing moves TOGETHER. I love it!
"Could have done better."
It's true, they could have if they did more practice with the moves or in general. That's what makes them amazing. They had reached such a high skill level and continue to pursue refined technique beyond that with humility. It's admirable.
The want for more power does the same thing

Man when he's saying that Im thinking "OKAY Maybe that WOULDNT Take out a Big Armoured bruiser Mongolian with a Shield and Spear and so on thats been raping pillaging and murdering one's people during 1200s or whatever, BUT to The People Watching him on the internet........
MOST OF US THINK
"NO WAY Bro He Looks JUST LIKE JIN!"
because most of us know fookall about Swordsmanship/Kendo/Etc. to the standards of Samurai that DONT Die on a Beach where EVERY Samurai Died... because of Yuna whom, man- I'll be a little shocked if they dont Die together or Marry by the end of game after we BECOME the REAL Storm that Drives the Mongolians away, which I think is where a Lot of the lore about Sakai's blade etc come from...
I mean isnt the truth that it was JUST the Storm that ruined things and PROBABLY Mongolian internal socio/geopolitical whatevers back home so they just thought "Man this is a BAD Storm and we Robbed a LOT and had fun lets go back home and Hope the Khan doesnt Kill us!" or whatever...
But IM LOVING the storymode and Im Here because of trying to determine whether or not the deluxe horse is better or just Whatever Colour I want and Im concerned I wont be able to name him the same as the first horse because I liked Kage...
Man they get us emotional over fictional horses from an alternate telling of a horrible war...
If in reality there was a Resistance group of Samurai using Ninja style tactics and other things that were considered Dishonourable previously I wouldnt be disappointed at all and Man is it a better story and Myth for stuff that COULDVE been used to Help train generations if they were speaking of a Legendary Warrior that Refused to Die Rescues his Uncle and so on then does ALL this other wild Impossible "only a Videogame Character could Do That!" kinda stuff.... that makes me think "WHAT NO WAY MY HORSE DIES FROM 2 ARROWS WHEN IVE JUMPED OFF FOOKIN MOUNTAINS WITH HIM AND HES GOTTEN UP FINE No need for Medicines or Rest JUST Gets Up Runs me to whereever EVEN While Getting Slashed Hit with Flaming or explosive arrows etc BUT 2 Arrows WITHOUT POISONS Get him when the NO NAME Replacement horse Ive got STILL Lives getting hit by my Poisons that KIll everyone and disable Jin?
aghh I need to calm down and Decide Which Horse AFTER Finding out FOR SURE that Deluxe Edition Horse is JUST that one Colour because Otherwise Id Have used and named different horses differently and with different names you know???
But I bet more than half the people not expecting our horse to get merced by Uncle's men PROBABLY Felt somewhat Similarly....
Man Now I wanna learn some Iaido..... when I order Either Shusui or Enma on the internet and get it THEN I'll begin training some Iaido stuff after the basic Kendo is known enough...
Anyone else Ever wonder how the hell so many characters with amazing Iai skills do Such Immensely Powerful ONE SLASH Kill Attacks and RESHEATH and in an Anime the Blade is in the Scabbard their some Colourful Movement and a Head Flying and the Swords ALREADY Back in the scabbard you know?
Id Be TERRIFIED to Attempt Slashing and Returning the blade to the sheathe at such speed cause ONE thing throwing off movement and Im stabbing my hand or breaking the sword scabbard or something... Maybe I shouldnt order a cheap anime imitation katana to practice Iaido......
(someone irritated by a part of my comment or that its longer than Twitter allows Is gonna tell me I should do it anyway and lose hands anyway EVEN THOUGH Im probably meant to lose limbs anyway thanks to the SuperDiabeetus from the Bad MMRVax from 19 years ago to be allowed to go to highschool which I think also changed how my brain operated and helped shut down my endocrine function but not like Im gonna say that 5HT2a agonists could be used to better treat AT LEAST Type 2 Diabetes or general Insulin Resistance etc. just becase it helped me lose weigh regain ability to see certain colours from self training and other stuff to do with neuropsychopharmacology and trying to Not Die, since I, LIKE MOST, am not keen on the Drug Companies murdering me thing but THEY Kinda ALREADY SoftKilled me so what does it matter when theyre already dropping new bioweaponised viral whatevers on the world so it feels like Human Civilisation has Already lost to a functionally "Internazi World Government" being run from people conspiring as Globalists to Abuse the powers of UNWHO, but man I wonder How long anyone will even be allowed to read any of this hehehe Man "Fook the world government!" man... Seriously... They're like Mongolians on Tsushima Except using more Advanced Tech and PsyOps style means and biowarfare etc.... and Now EVERYTHING SUCKS Besides a FEW Manga basically.... and Even with manga Sales are down cause of how most Printed Literature is now Forced to only be digital and so on... Now I've said too much... Excuse me...)
And it does Feel cold to the Replacement Horse cause why couldnt I just Call them to me and Tell her "This Horse, its Learnt a lot since you lent him to me... Thank you, I'll Keep em..." or IS that The Black horse with a better Saddle now? AGH... and Why Does Deluxe Horse Look the SAME as the Last one I had?? Just a Knockoff of My Kage...
I shouldve named the FIST Nobu and the Second Kage to be Symbolic if I KNEW the First was gonna be Murdered....

9:36 the reason Jin looks behind himself is to, as you stated earlier, remain aware of his surroundings and he will generally only do this if you've changed weapons, used weapons or dismounted your horse recently.
Whoever the original motion capture actor was had a high degree of skill.
These two actors did a fantastic job in their performance of these techniques.
Well done.

I love how this expert recreated the moves on the ground that's filled with little rocks. Must be hard enough not to fall moving so fast, let alone performing moves. Respect!!
Both of them did!!
True, even though some, if not most of the footage is speed up, so it could line up with the game-movements, they were still doing complex, and wonderful techniques. I'm not a martial expert, but I understand that the environment also affects how well someone fight, as well as their experience and physical merits. If you are able to fight normally on ground that is just a bunch of tiny rocks, then you got an (maybe) extremely good sense of balance. In short, I'm glad that they enjoyed doing it, and if they're hoping to get a role in the movie that is being made(first time I've heard of it tbh), well I hope they also get a role.
@@cameronjensen9397 That’s a great idea! Maybe even play as Jin! They’ve got the stances ready to go!

I love watching experts and theater/film guys break down stuff like this. It's also really cool to see them actually replicate moves that are stitched together by software.
I cant believe how identical some of those recreations were!
yeah the spinning atack was perfectly executed
Because the moves in the game are from motion capture , that's why they are "doable" , also devs used real swordsmen for motion capture
Its sped up at certain times to match up with the gameplay
@@shamsahmad8700 That's actually what they do with the mocapped moves. The performance actors make the movements at slower pace, then the developers will tweak the speed of the movements for the final game

12:30 I love just how much fun you can see that they are having when demonstrating on each other
That head-down and shaking while running during the running slash is what football players call 'keeping your head on a swivel'
Jin is looking behind him on each side for pursuers, much like a player running with the football would whole trying to avoid tacklers

I know one instance, when you train in Iaido, if you're not then this your sign to do so lol
I stumbled upon this video and was very impressed. From Toru's humbleness to Kazu's posture during movement.
The best part of this videos is looking at people actually enjoying creating content. These two are definitely having a blast with these moves.
These guys could beat the absolute crap outta me and they say they looked ok.
and they would've say "I could've done it better"
@The Joker anyone who's seen Breaking Bad knows this to be true.
Plotwist: anyone could beat the absolute crap outta you
You could burn anyone around you lol.
@The Joker it's humility not ego lol, they even say they could have done better, they trying to always get better no matter how good they did that thing, completely opposite lol
the demonstrations are super perfect.. the dynamic duo between the two is awesome.

Tsushima's stance combat switching was amazing. I had so much fun switching and getting good. Great game and fun video. Thx
In the dodge segment I love how they just have fun at the end
These guys were freaking insane. Please tell me others were blown away with how good their movement was?
Yup. Just Loved it.
Their moves are faster than my internet wtf
Bruh
😂 same dude
I think they speed up their moves to make it like the game lol
Whoosh
This got me
This is amazing! I would pay to see you do live demos all day! Such great talent! My brother is a 5th degree black belt and master in many things and weapons. I used to spare with him and train him for many years! Loved it!
Loved this video :D especially when both of them did the moves together !
Who would’ve thought that handling a dangerous weapon could look so graceful and beautiful.
You should check out wushu from China. Looks very nice, although it's worthless in an actual fight. Japanese swordsmanship is among the best in the world.

kali or eskrima in philippine use dagger ir knife it was use by real soldiers
@@loulavillena9896 I've heard of that (martial) art. if I recall correctly Kali is actually based off of the original Filipino art known as Arnis and now the three terms are used mostly as a blanket term for that style of martial arts. at current time it is mostly just stick-fighting and thus one might have heard of the "escrima" stick.
The guy with the black & claret red kimono is really doing a great job.
His movements are on point.
True he is absolutely on point
I've been learning some Japanese the last couple days using a certain language app with an owl, and I actually automatically looked at the name Tsuki, つき, to translate it as soon as I realized I recognized the letter groups.

Wow, watching this was amazing.

I absolutely love Ghost of Tsushima I'm glad there are experts explaining and recreating the moves
I always have high respect for swordplay of all cultures. And I have always found the old sword technique of japan to be a flourish of art while also showing the calm show of the mind as if nothing will distract from the flow. Very unlike where I was raised, where it mostly was a show of power and to overpower opponents though a more brutish and less refined but still shows a sense of primal pride and courage.
But thanks for showing your thoughts and how you like the moves from Ghost of Tsushima. ^_^
I think you can actually do a COLLATERAL with these swords. Probably even a wallbang.
You can 100% collateral with certain moves if they are close enough. Once got one with a perfect parry.
I prefere a gangbang instead of a wallbang.

This was probably the coolest things I’ve watched in a while
When Toru Uchikado recreates the running slash at 9:12 it highlights something I find really interesting about game animations and physics. It's something I always look for but rarely actually catch (unless I watch really close,) and that's by the developer's design.
Very often game devs will do some really weird and totally unnatural stuff with body physics to make things look more realistic, which is totally counterintuitive but it totally works. In this case it's a mild example, just exaggerating Sakai's movements to make the running look better, but in other games they straight up violate the capability of character's joints, bones, or the flexibility/movement capability of a character's body or body parts to make things look MORE natural... On this more extreme end it's called a "smear." I think Polygon did a video about it. "How devs break bones to make animation feel right." Super interesting.
The "smears" at the extreme end of this sort of "exaggeration spectrum," I guess, are really extreme but still surprisingly hard to catch at times, unless you're looking for them. Polygon did some freeze frames of classic cartoons and video games and it looks almost like some kind of appalling body horror at times lol. Smears are a technique that go back to classic cartoons from the 50's and laye 40's even, when they were popularized by the _legendary_ animator Chuck Jones, who's best known for his work with Warner Bros. Cartoons including the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of shorts.
I just love how this all works. We don't notice how exaggerated certain movements are until we see an actual person try to do it. Somehow the exaggeration by a chatacter can tend to slip right past our perceptive filters so much of the time. Very interesting. Brilliant animation tricks at play.
I loved this so much! Theatrical sword fighting is so cool. This was impressive!
Happy to see Ghost of Tsushima is getting all the praise it deserves.
Imagine trying to rob some random guy and he pulls out the video game plays
And you hear boss music playing
@@Zvilll "Why do I hear boss music?!"
-Some dude idk the name

Pulls out and calls for a standoff and then slit the throat in a wink
Your movements (both of you) is so fluent. I feel like what we see in movies doesn't do justice to what would have been back in the day but you two move more like real combat.
Damn it makes sense now why the people in the game were saying Jin moves like no other samurai. Even the experts were having trouble keeping up with him!
him: cutting armpit is very effective because there are alot of nerves running there and its really hard to stop the bleeding
me: 😱😱😱
Also it is usually less armored, if at all. You’ll find kill strikes at them in most sword manuals
Usually those places have 0 armor cause that's where the joints are located and it severely restricts movement otherwise. So as that meme goes "it's free real estate" for a swordsman to aim for
I know right... I'm getting nervous just thinking of me getting sliced in the armpit. It has to hurt a lot since there are multiple nerves in thar area and it's a surefire way of incapacitating that arm.
Joints are the bullseye for swordsmen, the unarmored, sensitive spot that renders even a little muscle movement critical to the enemy if their joint is wounded.
Right..? Just hearing that makes me cringe. Eugh.
You guys keep saying need more practice need more practice, moves isn't perfect etc. Well for the average guys 99% of all of us all of this looks pretty flawless, we couldn't tell a difference.
Japanese are diligent 😂 need to master even washing rice..
Well, if you dont wash the rice properly, someone could get sick.
@@maapaa2010 i choked on my saliva
Well if you look closely then they are right, they need more practice and the moves arent perfect. But to give them some credit, you would need a lot of muscle stength control just to copy the animation.
There might be a lot of mistakes that only true masters can see. Even small things like moving your foot a little too sideways can result in a big blunder. So let's trust the pros when they say that they still need practice!
9:10 The bobble-headed running is hilarious when coupled with the very serious nature of Katana strikes. I chuckled. How could you not?
So, I've been binge watching the expert videos and it is CRAZY how well these experts can recreate all of these moves.
The level of developed skill is insane.

I love how they are really enjoying this lol, precious senseis
I'm now obsessed with Kazu. Hes so graceful
Awesome episode!!! You guys killed it!!!!
even the editing is perfect, speeding it up ever so slightly to match the frames of the game. love it
"I look OK, but it's not good enough"
**perfect form**
Ghost of tsushima is the real GOTY
After that “award show” it finalized for me that awards mean nothing in the entertainment industry. Emmy Awards, GOTY Awards. They’re all meaningless. It’s just a glorified commercial made by biased and bribed judges
FF7 R is the real GOTY of 2020... look at that, an opinion. Stop crying about this shit, 2020 was a great year to own a ps4. GoT, ff7r and TLoU were all great games.
@@josephmoore9706 forreal bro, im on xbox but the gameplay for Ghost exceeded all my expectations. ESPECIALLY as an original game and not a sequel or remake
And water make things wet.
@@bryanmerel and fire is hot
The recreations were spot on. Good job guys.
Wow! Thank you for posting this, incredible talent!
Man that's a terrifying and yet beautiful art
Somebody start a petition for these 2 to be included in the next John Wick movie!
You can just petition them to be the movie adaption of ghost of tsushima.
edit* its not a rumor it has been announced already
or in any new Star Wars light saber duels :)
@@Amatsuichi samurai swordsmanship cannot be of use for lightsaber duel, you could end up slicing your own body
@@SasoeAgito
I mean, with a real sword you can also slice yourself.
Only to be killed with a pencil
Wow! Awesome video!
I have studied sword skills including taiji sword. In the short form (Kata) we indeed use the blade “sideways” so, yes, it can penetrate the chest cavity in between the ribs. The taiji sword is very thin and if wielded in a sloppy manner is wobbly at the tip. However, we practice to make that tip firm with technique. It is a very good and satisfying practice. It is extending the feel of your hand to the tip of your sword. Once you get this, you will never put down your sword again because it then becomes alive in your hands. Your video is very cool! And your skills are awesome. Thank you!
Both of you did very well in mimicking the moves, well done !!
