against someone who's trying to rip your head off...this is how deluded some shotokan people are. Karate is extremely effective as a martial art, but it's the simple techniques that are going to work, not this. Is Kanazawa an effective fighter? Yes. Is this bunkai rubbish? Yes. Don't try and defend the indefensible.

ps- keep the martial in your art.

[iceburg1968]

This is one of the reasons people leave Shotokan. This is terrible bunkai. If there are practical applications of these moves then show us them. No one is ever going to attack you like this, so you're never going to be able to defend like this. If you're ever in a real life situation where you're under threat you need techniques that work well under severe stress. Why would anyone practice like this? I remember one of my ex-instructors showing me some bunkai where he 'caught' a punch..try that

Maybe not the best he can come up with, just the best he's going to show us, typical of Japenese Bunkai, comes up short every time

Well I've studied Shotokan for more than 40 years (including in Japan with Kanazawa Kancho and trained with Murakami) and to be honest these Bunkai are the lamest efforts that I've ever seen. If this is the best he can come up with then his minder needs to have a word in his ear and make him a nice hot Milo.

Funakoshi studied this kata for 9 years, does anyone think that is all he came up with in that time. I think all early jananese dojo were McDojo. Get these guys black belts and get the system out there. Oh and if anyone asks what Kata means, this is what you show them. They wont question you as YOU ARE SENSEI and no one questions sensei. And so it goes on. Only thing is some of us do not accept your rubbish any longer. The old masters would be spinning in their graves.

Kanazawa is not human. He IS karate.

Follw up to below. Hence when I was shown the Wado bunkai to some of the Pinan katas it was quite mind blowing and open up my Shotokan Katas to further interpretation. Also do a search on Sensei Iain Abernethy, who ahows what can be gained through the practical application of kata. Excellent stuff. I have been to a few of his 5 hr training sessions and well worth £20. (Not an advert, its just good stuff).

I am a praticing Shotokan Karate with over 25 years years of experience. I have been training at a Wado Based club for about 8 years now, and have seen a different level of understanding with bunkai. Shotokan is a very direct and aggressive form of karate, which uses alot of punching and blocking, where as wado-ryu, is more of an evasive form of karate and uses alot of throws, locks etc due to its Ju-Jitsu influences. I was always shown bunkai within my shotokan background as blocks and counters

Osu,Listen all you Dumb Ass critizing Kancho Kanazawa. I am a student of a 7thDAn SkIF instructor.25 years ago 7 big mongrol Mobs attacked my Shihan. He took them a part and smashed each one of them with ease.Many of you who are critizing Kancho Kanazawa would not even stand a chance in the street with him in his young days.He is a legend which has now aged in this video.Maybe he was 76 years old here.
