Soke is THE MAN!

[fardisghomeshi]

Creationsofmyown doesn't know anything about the art,ignore his comments.

[kissrdbc]

@fardisghomeshi i agree with u hatsumi

never make up stuff if are warrior Creationsofmyown you show respect to hatsumi

[magnazero]

if you dont think ninjas know what they are doing, why dont you challenge one? anyone who would call this an "art" (specifically blueman807) is probably a fat, lazy slob who has nothing better to do than sit around diddling things that shouldnt be diddled with a thumb up their keester. Ninpo ryu taijutsu is not an ART (like drawing, or calligraphy). It is a way of Life.

[fardisghomeshi]

true there are only a handfull of true life ninjas.hatsumi and few of his students, doing what the ninjas of the old did in the modern time.

[Creationsofmyown]

problem...

takamatsu made up all of the "ninjutsu" he taught to hatsumi from "ninja-gokko" - childhood ninja games.

so hatsumi isnt a ninja, nor are any of his students... but fear not, we know of people who WERE real ninja, and they are by far much more spectacular...

unfortunately, all of those people are dead....

namely Seiko Fujita, the last ninja... and last practitioner of ninjutsu.

[fardisghomeshi]

@Creationsofmyown go throw kick and a punch then come back and comment on a warrior's art.idiots like you who read books and think they are the next coming to the subject need to go to the real thing and learn thew difference.

[Creationsofmyown]

-sigh- listen meathead, you were told in the pm, this isnt an issue you can fix with your hands and feet... this problem needs brains, ah area you are clearly deficient in...

i suggest you go do the real thing... study real budo, all the buj is is some kempo, aiki, jujutsu, with a smattering of ninja weapons.

the ninpo ryu are an admitted creation of takamatsu, its even in the Bugei Ryuha Daijiten... not liking the contents of a book doesnt mean its not true.... get over it.

[fardisghomeshi]

@Creationsofmyown listen ahole make sure you give me your address so i can close your mouth.go learn the real thing and leave the arts to the ppl who practice it.i ll see you soon desktop warrior.

[Creationsofmyown]

Sent. come and get it asshat.

even if you showed up, and won... it still wont make the bujinkan or anything hatsumi has ever been trained in, or trained anyone else in, NINJUTSU...

ITS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN,,,,

silly troll noob...

[reginaninja]

@Creationsofmyown Ask yourself why a man in his 70's and 80's would have reason to lie about the art he was teaching to his only student. It was not as though Takamatsu was trying to gain world wide fame and fortune as some today are. His teachings were largely done in secret and in secret locations as a true Ninja would. Seems like the whole lineage and the densho and so-forth would be a great undertaking to orchestrate for the benefit of only one other person in the world!

[Creationsofmyown]

@reginaninja

uh.. he lied about it before then.... he just didnt mention it until AFTER the ninja craze...

and your right, takamatsu had NO IDEA how big the ninja-craze was gonna get.

if you are implying that i am the only one who cares you are grossly misled... the lack of densho, the questionable lineage... these are the reasons that hatsumi cannot gain entry into the Nihon Kobudo Shinkokai...

as to why... i cant say, people do odd things all the time...

can you not prove me wrong?

[angloricua]

@Creationsofmyown I've something to say to you. Whoever you are and whatever other alias' your hiding under,. Take it easy man. seriously we all know hat historically the shinobi no mono died out but that doesn't mean to say that aspects have bee filtered through espionage and Guerilla warfare...but really why should you be so bothered by it that nearly every second video I see your name bad mouthing any of the xkans. If you are so confident go to Honbu in Japan, tell hatsumi and bad mouth him!

[Creationsofmyown]

@angloricua

"that doesn't mean to say that aspects have bee filtered through espionage and Guerilla warfare" if all that hatsumi has is "aspects" then he has NO business claiming a menkyo kaiden, and sokeship of a 900 year old direct lineage.

thank you for admitting he is claiming something you know to be false.

".but really why should you be so bothered by it that nearly every second vide" because i have a problem with hatsumi, and his students thinking they can rewrite history...

[angloricua]

@Creationsofmyown Yeah well, I don't know if it's false or not and I'm not about to question him because I know his stuff works, no matter where it came from that's all that matters to me, I had a gun pulled out on me in downtown and Budo Taijutsu saved my life, the training just switched on as if auto pilot! Really who cares if anybody adds a little something here and there, it's an evolving art and always has been. Maybe when the Big Mac was invented it never had pickles (bad analogy I know)

[Creationsofmyown]

@angloricua

"Maybe when the Big Mac was invented it never had pickles "

i LIKE the bigmac analogy

so here is the thing, how would you feel if a "big mac" was released now that had absolutely nothing in common with the current bigmac.... what if it was an entirely different thing, and they still called it a bigmac, is that ok with you?

what if their whole menu was called bigmac?

we have names for a reason, and ninjutsu is one that has no living connections beyond maybe TSKR

[angloricua]

@Creationsofmyown Fair point, I think there actually is a Big Mac menu, but who cares the Big Mac is far from big anyway! I'm sorry I;m not sure what TSKR is, you'll have to spell the whole word out as I'm a little computer illiterate. Soke wont train good fighters, he constantly stresses that we all have our own Taijutsu depending on the shape and capabilities of our bodies.

From your point of view you see him as a salesman, I see a thought provoking man. The Bujinkan isn't for everyone!

[angloricua]

@Creationsofmyown I'm sorry you have a problem with Hatsumi sensei but you are entitled to your opinion. I personally find him an intriguing gentleman with an extraordinary talent for martial arts that I can only hope to come close to one day. I certainly don't worship him but I do believe he is given far too much disrespect from what I've seen in peoples comments. I've said before Budo Taijutsu has saved my life, I thank my instructor and I thank soke Hatsumi for the training he gives 100% .

[Creationsofmyown]

@angloricua

"I'm sorry you have a problem with Hatsumi sensei but you are entitled to your opinion."

i realize that this is a common mode of defense for all those people unable to produce ANY evidence to back up the belief they have stacked on hatsumi, but i bear him no ill will beyond being a good salesman.

nobody said he wasnt a great martial artist, he SHOULD train good fighters, but that DOESNT change that he is claiming something false. and doing it WITHOUT EVIDENCE.

[Nitro9931]

@angloricua i agree if you think you have skill and wish to proove a point then do what you want with your own judgements go to hombu in japan and see your own failure befor your eyes .its not about history or any of that crap its about the person training and what he wants out of it . and ninjutsu is a collection of arts thats how it started its not ridged like outher systems it evolves like a human .900 years worth of people praticing and trying out new things.

[k1lolo]

I saw Hatsumi Sensei 1990. it made a staying impression of joyfulness and mind controlling

[Ninjarogerio]

Este sensei não chega aos pés do meu mestre esti sensei seus é muito idiota? ass:sobmundo dos ninjas para nos encontrarmos siga as fléchas indicativas.bye fuk you

[constellationcancer]

taylor moore, i agree that it is up to the practitioner to make the best of their martial art

[taylormoorefield]

Blueman807, there are many bullshit-Bujinkaners out there, but if you find a good school, then you will be impressed. Trust me. Sure, no one is going to fall down from a wrist lock, but Hatsumi has never said that it would. Only his stupid students have.

[onikudaki]

I've made guys fall down from a wrist lock. Who, by the way, didn't want to go down. Gyakus work just fine.

[blueman807]

the images and music are much more impressive than actually training in this so called "art"if it's too good to be true than it is! don't believe the hype!

[smashslasher]

can u send me that song
