If X-kans would just be honest and say "This is Togakure Ryu. Its authenticity is highly dubious-- however, this is what it is." and then they DID NOT say "This is the only school of authentic ninjutsu in the world" It is that claim (being the last authentic school) that really makes them a target for critism -- as the X-kans certainly have the audacity to claim to be the last authentic source for ninjutsu when their ninjutsu isnt even real historical ninjutsu !
I happen to like Togakure Ryu--- despite what you wish to believe,I have studied it and I have never run into another X-kans member who claims to have learned more than what I was instructed in... .. I actually LIKE TOgakure RYu. However-- it is not "real ninjutsu". It is Really COol and really useful--- but is not actual ninjutsu by any stretch.
@BlackShinobiShozoku Did I say I didn't know it ? Perhaps a typo or a misreading-- I have what I believe to be the cirriculum (now, it is totally possible that the X-kan instructor who taught me lied about the completeness of it..however, allegedly, I have studied and trained all the taijutsu and kenjutsu of Togakure Ryu) Aside from the hand-to-hand stuff--- and some Ongyojutsu--- there was nothign else taught really .. Even the kuden was still hand-to-hand. No ninjutsu.
@shigakusha1336 while I think climbing trees, throwing poweder, pretending to be hurt and then throwing a sword into someone, swinging off the top of a wall to kick someone, using shuko, using my sageo, etc.etc.. -- all of that stuff is awesome and I love the material-- it is not ninjutsu. Is it useful in relation to ninjutsu--yes ! But it has been advirtised "the last and only real ninjutsu" -- but it is neither claim.
@shigakusha1336 Why do you think all of those things aren't apart of Ninjutsu?
What is to stop it from being Ninjutsu? And who said they "knew" all the material contained in Bansenshukai?
Bansenshukai is totally independent from Takamatsu-den. The Ninjutsu in Takamatasu-den arts is a VERY little aspect... so I highly doubt most Takamatsu-den practitioners are HIGHLY skilled in Ninjutsu.
@Creationsofmyown "The Ninjutsu in Takamatasu-den arts is a VERY little aspect... so I highly doubt most Takamatsu-den practitioners are HIGHLY skilled in Ninjutsu"
doesn't stop them advertising it. WHICH IS THE PROBLEM,
"In a letter from Takamatsu Chōsui to general Kuki Takahara, it is written that Takamatsu proposed to formulate a new school and called his branch Hontai Kukishin-ryū Chōsui-ha. He was asking permission to start his own branch CONT
branch for various reasons. One of the main reasons was that Kodokan was prevailing nationwide and Chōsui admitted that it was difficult to compete with them using the old kobudō system, which was the case with Kukishin-ryū. Chōsui said that he added karate tōdejutsu (now known as karate) to Kukishin-ryū jūjutsu. Chōsui was thinking of calling it Hontai Kukishin-ryū Chōsui-ha and making it very popular to the public. Shōwa 25 May 15 (Circa 1950)
John Lindsey in an interview with Tanemura S asks: "Did Takamatsu S always call it Togakure ryu?":
"Not at first. When he was associated with the Kuki family he planed to introduce Kukishin Ryu Ninpo in the form of scrolls and densho. But after the war he distanced himself from the Kuki family and decided not to do this. then he met Hatsumi S. and Fukumoto s. Takamatsu S.i decided to teach them Ninpo. That is when he decided to use the name Ninpo."
my point is, that why would takamatsu tell tanemura and hatsumi that he knew kukishin ryu ninpo,
takamatsu also LEFT the kukishin ryu after they refused him a branch,
i can take some embarassing quotes from the kwoon interview with zoughari if you would like?
the ones that say the entire collection is written by takamatsu... or that they don't have documents... or that hatsumi isn't sure if its historical.... ( i LOVE that one personally) he must have no proof.
@Creationsofmyown But I don't see where he didn't learn Kukishin ryu, just where he added. Kind of what happened to my own art that I am in. Passed the lineage...but added more onto it.
@shigakusha1336 all the techniques make up the ninjutsu system of combat. ninja wasn't only an intelligent gatherer but he was also highly skilled in combat.
To my knowledge there is even things that a lot of "X-kan" teachers don't know. Togakure consist mostly of non "fighting" techniques, and is what most considered "Ninjutsu". I cannot speak too much on this as I am not a X-kan member, but there is public things and there are private things. Most of what is seen publicly is not "Ninjutsu."
Most teachers who do know the Ninjutsu aspects of Togakure ryu, probably don't teach it really. Because they don't see the point in it.
@BlackShinobiShozoku My personal "beef' with X-kans is being told that they contained historical ninjutsu-- and that the X-kans teachers "knew all the material contain in densho like Bansenshukai" But-- when tested-- they failed. For example, Genbukan has no idea how "kurorokagi" actually works. When 4th Dan and above instructors are teaching FALSE information to the students --- THAT is my issue !
hey great vid. i enjoyed the blowing of the metsubishi, and your sui-ren section of the vid. keep up the good work, and i hope to see some kayakujutsu in your future videos. GOD bless, and train hard. (bow)
the outfit at :07 is an invention of the ninja craze (1950s-70s)
and then when he proceeded to demonstrate many things that would ATTRACT ATTENTION, instead of dissuade attention... then yes, we can safely say that he is pretending at ninja ( ninja-gokko) which is PRECISELY what the Bugei ryuha daijiten( THE budo encyclopedia) had to say about takamatsu's school when he was interviewed about it.
@Creationsofmyown Exactly. Togakure Ryu is a joke. Everytime it is investigated, it comes up lacking. Nishina Daisuke never existed (and his story is dismissed by legit researchers as being simply a fairytale) .. Togakure Ryu's 'ninjutsu curriculum" does not match any known-and-validated ninjutsu cirriculum.. etc.etc.. Its a collection of Kuki material which has been altered to look like "ninja"... but this is definatly COMBAT-- which Ninjutsu definately is not.
@BlackShinobiShozoku You do understand that hundreds of people in the Bujinkan and Genbukan have been taught Togakure Ryu-- right ? And no-- there is no historical evidence for Togakure Ryu. Please list these supposed "legit Japanese researchers" and what proof they managed to find--despite that numerous professional historians have been trying to find a single shred of evidence of Togakure Ryu for the last 20 years. Also--Amatsutatara was made up by Takamatsu. Kuki family says so.
And if you want the proof they have found, please go read their articles. (You may have to learn Japanese though). Now list to me these "Numerous professionals" you are referring too.
@BlackShinobiShozoku Yea, all of those authors have been found to not provide any evidence-- try again. Perhaps you would like to actually site pre-1970s books ? Or better yet-- -why don't you just end this debate and prove Toda Masamitsu ever existed.
And I can read Japanese-- it is how I proved that Nishina Daisuke never appears in the Genpei Seisuiki, like the X-kans have been claiming--- like the authors you listed have been claiming. There is no proof.
@BlackShinobiShozoku Fact is this : Amatsutatara was crafted in1948. X-kans teach it is ancient. Togakure Ryu Ryu is suppose to have come from Toda Masamitsu-- but he never existed. Lots of claims-- not evidence for any of them. Matter of fact, your actually in the negative, considering you have no evidence of Togakure Ryu and Amatsutatara is a 1948 fabrication.
Even if you're correct... it really means nothing. Katori Shinto Ryu claims the creator of their system is 102 years old. Even though it has been historically verified that he lived to be around 40years old.
Koryu don't really have the most "Accurate" of history. And it's common for things to be exaggerated.
@BlackShinobiShozoku By the way---some of the "researchers" you listed are actually fiction novelists--- not historians. You should really check your facts before you post.
@shigakusha1336 It's been secret for thousands of years it has holes in it besides you think these japanese are gonna reveal everything to u japanese reasearching cockriders?
@Ronin10467 These Japanese--- are you implying that I am not Japanese? Are you implying that-- because YOU are an anglo-saxons protestant that I must be one as well ? Sorry buddy-- try again.
"Lol and then thay had to change what they said in the next edition cause they were proven wrong"
no, they had to change what they said because printing things you cannot prove is illegal, its called libel, look it up... the BRD took the higher road and let the fact that takamatsu gave them more than 1 fake lineage go...
BTW, WHERE is this PROOF? it IS what i have been askin of u 4 weeks
"....i own both copies"
then you can see the differences between the claims made BY TAKAMATSU...
@Creationsofmyown Asking me for 4 weeks? you got the wrong guy.....and if you dont know what it says in the bugei ryuha daijiten maybe you should be posting what you read on message boards....god knows ive been fair with all this
