If you actually don't study Kendo then you actually don't know what you're talking about right? Why do you think people studied swordplay for millenniums?
Any decent martial artists know how to fight with rules off. The difference is we also have techniques that have been tested and proven by generations after generations.
Even in the old MMA days those with training always did far better.
Don't make a mockery out of a master's demonstration with your bullshit.
@Alhok Yeah but you know, it is only my oppinion and,what's more, whether you do kendo properly or not, it doesn't have to steal every heart, dude. Maybe it wasn'r also his day - hitted in first possible while? Me simply didn't like it.
I don't study actual kendo so it's hard for me to tell who is winning at times :P. I prefer learning sword techniques on my own without any guidance. Trial and error is always more fun and erratic swordplay usually has an advantage over conditioned in a real fighting environment anyways.
@frontaLobotomy92 This is TODA sensei - he is Legend in Japan - he won 3 all japan "above 7th dan" championships. He has best kedo in Nito to date. I had an honour to be on his seminar. Sir - you have no idia what you are talkng about......
@KevnutsWho all the kamaes in nito are very flexible. you can choose in which hand handle your daito (long sword) and your shoto (short sword). even the feet position is free: you can move with the right foot forward, or with the left one, no matter about the swords positions in the hands.
