Some interesting stuff in that short video. I would love to see a more indepth version.
Those uses of the tsuka to block/counter were very enlightening. I had not seen or heard of those before.

cool I will look out for the full version
I am sure there are some very big eye openers of the reality vs myth of Samurai behavior.

That was beautiful, I looked up Fumon Tanaka and I was very surprised that he is soke to multiple arts. Looked at the website for his dojo too, man I wish I could train there: taikijyuku.com/en/index.htmlI've seen a variant of the using the tsuka from tsuba-zarai like shown in the video, except the left hand reacquired the tsuka instead of bringing the tsuka to the opponent's forearm. Can we have teleporters now? It'd be awesome to train all around the world so easily.

Actually, if you read fechtbucher like the Codex Wallerstein, you'll find they contain more groin shots than any single Jackass movie. Especially the dagger sections. Our's is not a gentle art. PS. Notably, "Walpurgis" of I.33 fame, the only female I can recall depicted fighting with a sword in a fencing treatise, mercifully refrains from such shenanigans...

I think I saw Fumon Tanaka pass by with Mind, Body and Kickass Moves. Loved his ways/views there as well, and instantly felt it in this short. Really need to see the long version.

The femoral artery is the quickest way to bleed someone out short of the aorta, so I think it's a perfectly viable target.
Besides, if I cut off your parts your pride will die with you.

Also, stabbing the densest cluster of nerve endings outside the brain is pretty reliably debilitating even if you survive it...
