I think the vids suck on purpose to keep people out. Bujinkan is hidden by nature, secure from those seeking easy understanding. Other arts look great, but allow common egos to possess them. I love that it looks wrong. This invites only questioning minds to the Honbu. If you know everything already, Bujinkan isn't even available to purchase.

@nicerebound Actually when you get into the style behind closed doors, You learn to punch right and it greatly resembles boxing with about 13 different variations of fists. I do MMA and Bujinkan and have trained in styles such as Fairbairn Defendu, and a little krav maga. Bujinkan is not what is portrayed in this vid. This is just a sample to reel students in.

@nicerebound Don't be hasty and jump to conclusions. Some "Bujinkan" teachers did the same, and ended up teaching badly. There is no lunging punch in Ninjutsu. What u see in the video can be read in many ways, and implies many movement techniques. This is a demo, not a teaching.
It's important for you to bear in mind that there's no lunging punch in the practice, for a punch must reach the target at all cost. Someone who studied with disciples of Hatsumi or with Hatsumi could tell u that much.

on an interesting sidenote, the book you have mentioned here...
the Genpei Seisuiki... which is conveniently available for download if you know where to look... does NOT contain the name Nishina Daisuke like the FORUM POST where this idea originated. says it does...
the name Daisuke of the Nishina clan appears nowhere, anywhere...
we know who hatsumi says his dad is... and he isnt on genealogy under him,...

"Doctor Hatsumi takes him from behind" lol classic lol

"I ask again for the years of marial training, teachers and date"
if you are asking someone something, shouldnt you use the reply button????
ah, but you aren't you just want to make it look like i was stumped by you...
and i have already told you, since I am not making these claims, and am simply citing appropriate experts MY qualifications are in NO WAY, relevant.
"happy to scrutinise other people how about your beliefs!?"
my beliefs follow the evidence, do u have some evidence?
-
I ask again for the years of marial training, teachers and date. You are quite happy to scrutinise other people how about your beliefs!?!?
-
either you cant spell, or your throwing curves... let me correct you, ' genpei suiseki ' is incorrect it should be:
'Genpei Seisuiki'
also known as Genpei Jōsuiki
its an extension of the tale of heike....
but you wouldn't try to use a misspelling of the alternate name to deliberately miscite a source right? too bad for you im a better researcher than to let that stop me.
as is, your using suiseki > " japanese art of Stone Appreciation(水石)" you didn't mean that did you?
-
@Arteanor I am not interested in X,Y,Z society I am not speaking to them. Please answer you the question. Tests are there for a reason..knowledge. Independent historians you say so what does' genpei suiseki ' mean to you?
-
what relevance does my training have to do with the opinions of the koryu societies, independent historians, and martial artists alike?? absolutely nothing of course, you are only attempting to set up an argumentum ad hominem... which is of course logically fallacious...
can you explain to me why i would need a martial arts "test" to understand the books written by experts???
if doing something enough makes it second nature, aren't you worried about training in an art that throws so many hanging lunge punches?

your kinda rambling. i just asked if all the lunge punches worried you since doing them so much might make them second nature. your answer is no, because you are pretending they are other things. so i say to you: HAPPY PRETENDING CEEKAY!!
