You might think nothing happened, but if we pan to the left we could see that he cut through the building walls, park trees, truck's engine block and a thickest sumo wrestler.
Yoshio Sugino was 81 years old at the time - this was recorded at the Second Aiki News Friendship Demonstration in 1986, and he was born in 1904 (everything here is googleable). Show some respect. Most of you will barely be able to walk, let alone swing a sword gracefully, at that age, but he did.
indeed, he was way too fluid for his age, its masterful presentation. one thing people forget in martial arts nowadays is the fluidity of movement, he is holding the katana as if it was part of his own body.
@@davidjacobs8558 Poor VHS to digital conversion. Not unusual. If you don't believe me, you can literally google "yoshio sugino 2nd aiki news friendship", and the first result will be "The Last Swordsman: The Yoshio Sugino Story, Part 1". Click it, then check the third picture from above, where he kneels before the katana. Exact same floor gap as in this video. Then google "2nd aiki news friendship", and check the date. 1986. I would have posted links, but youtube seems to shadowban comments with links, as I have tried it before and failed.
He's literally cutting off the electrons from the other elemental pieces. You have to be at least 80 years old and have a long beard to charge your sword with energy
His movements are just so smooth. Especially when he gets back his sword into the sheath it just looks so perfect. There is no flaw and no uneccessary movement.
If he's in the anime, he will be the strongest character but ultimately died 300 years ago and someone inherited his teaching and defeat the main villain.
Nah, he'll be the badass old man whose power they show glimpses of throughout the series, they he obliterates a big bad after the main character loses. A few arcs later he dies against the new main villain and the main character takes his sword and defeats the villain
He is announcing his attacks . He's doing it in some sort of ancient Japanese language. A missing link between Grunts and screams of unrighteous indignation, and modern Japanese language, which in and of itself ( when done by Japanese men of at least 40 years of age ) is full of Grunts and screams of unrighteous indignation.
I love how so much of this display shows him slowly sheathing his sword after each draw. It 100% applies to fire arms training today. You want to draw quickly, but once you've drawn, either the threat is dead or YOU are dead so their is no longer any need for haste. Added to that, it is the re-shielding of your weapon that is the cause of the most injuries. Once a threat has been neutralized, there is no need for speed. Put the weapon away slowly and safely.
@@ThePIPE92 It's the sound of a VHS dying because his blade stroke was so precise that it created a powerful magnetic field that damaged the fabric of reality, travelling to the near future, damaging the magnetic tape in the VHS and introducing this heavy static.
I remember that the first time I watched this video years ago that everyone in the comment section could be summarized as saying, “lol how boring” I am glad to see that time has changed that dramatically.
Apparently this was the guy they consulted for the choreography of the Seven Samurai. He also trained under the original founders of both judo and aikido. Lived quite the life.
I still remember the stories of my grandma telling stories of her days with Mifune Juudan. Short little guy was a judo sage and my grandma used her techniques to beat her children.... and her grandchildren...
When the blade stop, it stops. The amount of control is exceptional. Even in awkward angle where arms cant exert enough strength to control the blade, it still stopped without recoils. Masterful art.
There this thing where they flick it or spin it 180 degrees. Look closely he’s actually spinning it 36p degrees really fucking fast and it just looks like a flick
@@elijahgarrett7267 I had a theory that this was what he was doing, either that or my eyes were deceiving me. You made me look a bit closer and watch his hands too! A true show off of his trained skill!
His swordsmanship was so renowned, he sliced off my head in the United States all the way from Japan and decades into the future. I am writing this comment from heaven.
When he swings he litterally bypass camera FPS. but I can sense that He is very cautious about swinging sword that hold back barely showed us his true skills. The amount of respect he gave to his sword is admirable.
It depends on the method. My father had a work buddy who was an 8th degree Don and you would never know by looking at him. Guy had a fall and broke his neck. Drove himself to the hospital to make sure everything was ok. That’s when he found out to the astonishment of the ER team.
He seems to be slow at first glance, then I realized the time between the starts to move his hands toward his katana, and the time he finished the first slay, is actually shorter than half second.
The fact that he has a beard changes nothing in a real battle setting. ;) When your life is on the line and the only option is to kill, you tend to not look at trivial things as "a beard".
Dont act like you know some shit about real life situation , intimidation is a good weapon for people with no will, and what he said about the beard is kind of a joke comment dont take it so seriously.
@@ozysalt4831 And how do YOU know about a real life battle situation? And do you really think people with no will are the real threath in a melee battle? If you get intimidated by a beard, you ll run away when you see a man with a mask holding a naginata. And i doubt soldiers of that time were like that. Just imagine. I do almost everyday. I am a student of katori shinto ryu. A man is a man. You got one option ; kill. The other is death.
@@ylmzll i understand your point of view but am talking about modern situations not about the situations of decades ago , you have to do anything at your disposition to survive , you cant limit yourself with only your discipline.
The way this 81 yr old demonstrates Iaijutsu is just amazing. His agility and quick movements for an 81 yr old...impressive. I mean, we have a president who can't even walk up a flight of stair to the airplane without tripping let alone read from a teleprompter.
@@saulsanchez8018 No. But doesn't watching him put it right next to his ear make you nervous? xD If you or I practiced that style, we'll be given wooden training swords, to spend thousands of hours practicing before being allowed near a sharp katana, but still.... one mistake, and ouchies! x.x
I speak fluent japanese and therefore know that having ten fingers is a prerequisite to achieving 10th dan in Tenshin Shōden Katori Shintō-ryū. 9 fingers - only 9th dan, 8 fingers - 8th dan and so on. But what does Katana mean? It means japanese sword!
You'd think he moves way too slow for actual combat, but it only appears this way because video itself is slowed down hundredfold, otherwise ordinary humans wouldn't be able to see his movements
Well, katana were not meant for close combat. It functions more like a claymore. Some were even very defensive and could easily deflect heavy blows and withstand numerous arquebus(yes ninjas used 1 bullet guns) shots.
Sir Dude you need to read more about japan history. Ninjas are spies and do not use guns, only some soldiers in the frontline do. Plus gun was only introduced half way in the warring states period, and only some of the daimyo owns them. The weapon worked as a living-saving straw and is consider rare since most of them were from trade.
I studied this for a few years in Nagano...The dojo participants and the Sensei were very kind to me and my broken Japanese, even went to a competition in Nagoya City, didn't win but it was interesting and fun. Miss those days, miss Japan and their respectful culture and amazing food...We called it Iiaido, not sure about this name...
iaido is the modern distillation of several older iaijutsu schools, in a similar way that kendo is the modern distillate of several kenjutsu schools. This is Tenshinshoden Katori Shinto ryu, an old school founded in the late 1400s. It teaches the use of a number of different weapons, and includes iaijutsu/battojutsu in the curriculum.
In case people don't see what's going on, he's cutting oxygen molecules into two and suppressed the molecular energy released by his katana. Of course he casted energy suppression spell first, it was when he was bowing to his katana.
Crazy to know that my sensei today trained under Sugino sensei and that i have met the guy in person. If just i become half as good in my lifetime i will be honored! Thank you Sugino Sensei for your passion of the art
When you take into consideration that their weapons were also works of art masterfully and precisely crafted by hand over the course of a year or more, respect is an understatment. I would imagine there was a time when dying by the blade made by a certain smith was an honor.
@Zih Vil its always funny, you dont know nothing about the "whole" , its about respect for the weapon, But seems C.O.D. is the only Combat Education you know.
I've trained Kenjutsu for some years, there is a subtle difference between experienced (in years and years of training, not sword-sword to the death lol) samurai and newcomers. Newcomers move with clear effort, focus on each of their movement, and attention to the enemy. That is scary if you have the presence and know how to use that to scare the enemy... but experienced samurai? They move like butter, so precise, and yet looks so effortless. Their gaze is rock solid, they don't look like they're about to defeat you, but are waiting for your mind to lose focus for a split second, and without you knowing if, they strike or were ready for your strike. It's kinda terrifying.
I really want to give you the benefit of the doubt (i really do seriously) and most of what you said makes sense, but for some goddamn reason the way you word it is like one of those cringy weeb teenager's speech fantasy... No offense dude.
In case people don't see what's going on, he's demonstrating how to execute an opener which became fundamental when using the design of the Katana. The unsheathing into an opener became so ingrained in the art style that some consider a fight won or lost depending on how well you execute it (real fights don't last long, usually 30 seconds to 2 mins max depending on your opponent's tenacity and willingness to fight back). This wasn't to demonstrate force or agility since this is an elegant art style which focuses on technique than brute strength, also his age probably prevents him from exerting to much energy, and these swings aren't the "Secret OP Dragon Ninja, call me an Uber because I need to GTFO of here" move you can just watch and emulate and will work 100% of the time. That's not how dueling works or hand to hand combat, it's all dynamic and situational. What he just did was demonstrate different openers depending on a situation, much like most Martial Arts, you drill these instructions into your muscle memory and then you forget everything you learn so it becomes second nature to you (instinctive). This if anything was just a pretty display of Katori Shinto Ryu, he's a Master and also very old, he's dedicated his life to this art and spectators just wanted to see what he was about. Any real test of the Martial Art has to be proven during war times since that's when majority of these Martial Arts techniques started flourishing and in times of peace schools all over Asia started popping up to advertise the superiority of their art style over another. In short, Tenshin Shōden Katori Shintō-ryū is a very old Martial Arts style that "checks out", it was used during war and was very effective. The art form was created in 1447 and since then there has been 18 wars leading up to WWII where rifles became the choice weapon in the modern age.
I’m sure I was used to see who could chop off the most Chinese heads before WW2 and then posted in local newspapers in japan bragging on the guy who chopped off 1 more head than the other guy 101 heads to 100 heads yeah ahhh 🖕
J CG lol would hope so, he's only 147 after all..... And to be completely fair, he'd probably give you a run for your money if not kick your ass outright with no effort.
He has excellent control of the blade. His cuts have virtually no recoil and his movements are precise and fluid. Ive trained this same Kata and am no where near this precise.
@@livingStone-i5l no problem 👍. The sword style is called Iaido and translates to unleashing the sword. It was developed for use during peacetime. Because you could not tell if or when someone would attack you the Art was developed to draw the blade and attack in one quick motion. Lots of blocks and strikes aren't necessary in this type of scenario so in iaido the emphasis is placed on precision, fluidity, and speed.
It’s like practicing quick draw, how quickly can you go from holstered to kill shot. I can see on his face he is imagining his opponent, blocking his moves and wiping his blood off.
It's just from him spinning the blade in his hand so fast that the camera can't catch the frames, so the blade seems like it's not spinning at all. Until he stops the spin and draws back, revealing the effect you notice. His moves are like an effortless butterfly.. that's how I know he's legit. I don't need to see anything impressive or fast to realize I could never cross blades when this man and win. I saw his perfect flow of each cut and movement. I'm sure his full speed cut would be hardly visible to the eye. So he had to go slow for that old camera and the audience.
I would really like to hear an experienced Sword User talking about what he sees in Sugino Sensei's movements. I've only practiced 2 years by myself, and I can already notice the smoothness of his movements, the self control, the balance of his stance, the afterimages lol. It gives me chills. It would have been an honor to watch him alive. Amazing... outstanding.
Some shit he does I'm not sure the practical battle use of but he does sword before body and takes passing steps correctly. I don't understand the after image though. Shit blows my mind. Alot of eastern sword stuff has movements in the katas just for showing off or stretching and he really only does like 2 unreasonable things in this video. Rest is clean. Would be cool to study under some one like this though.
@@novacombatarts I really don't catch what are unreasonable moves, if you could point them out I would be grateful, just for analysis purpose. I do know that martial arts have some... ornamental movements in it, but to be honest I have rarely seen those in asian sword practice. Some are for etiquette, some show a cultural tradition, but yeah some are outright just flashy, specially the modern styles. But well, it depends. Afterimages actually are because he just moves slightly faster than what the motion capture technology could afford in that era (nowadays in a digital video it would look blurry, back then, and in grayscale, it looks like an afterimage) , so it creates that effect. It still looks very cool hahah specially because his movements are very calculated, so it doesn't look like a video issue, it just looks like an afterimage hahaha
@@thehumanpractice2985 so the first is the way he draws the sword at 1:58. He wouldn't have much leverage and the movement is to big and would cost to much time. It's just kinda unessasary to draw your blade like that. That one isn't to big of a deal though. The other one that really stands out to me is how he waves his sword around at 2:50. Idk why he does this because one that's not a great parry . 2 his tip is no longer pointed at the enemy creation a threat for them to deal with. If your kneeling or sitting imo you need to have the tip pointed towards the enemy so they have to use a tempo to deal with the threat, which is your sword. Before they can attack you. If your tip isn't forward they will just kill you in the middle of your movement. Sense he is kneeling he cannot reatreat and sense he also moves both his has at the same time he has pretty much spent all his tempos. He is essentially a sitting duck. That paired with the wide swing and no threat presented to stop the enemy it wouldn be great martially. Granted I could be missing something there. I know some times you parry with your tip pointed up as what's called a steal wall parry to shut off a entire line of attack. But to do this your sword needs to continously cover that line. Not move it to the other side of your body opening another line. Also I do understand the frame rate it's just wierd how it's always after he flicks his sword lol.
@@novacombatarts I can totally see that now. Maybe we are missing something, probably. It does look fishy, especially the second one, the first just looks flashy. Although several times I've seen a movement and thought "WEll that doesn't work", only to find my pov wrong after. Maybe someday we'll know haha And if you look closely he also leaves an afterimage, but his sword is more noticeable because of the shine probably. Such a menacing aura
Really wish we could have footage of some of the monsters around the era of musashi, people literally fighting wars and death matches trying to become the strongest, you'll never be able to replicate some of the people of that era now that swords are outdated, sure hema, sword schools and kendo can be impressive but compared to back when these weapons were used in combat.. it's all lost to time which is a good and bad thing.
Elderly master is demonstrating techniques centered around drawing the sword. Neat thing is he may almost be old enough to have been trained by someone that actually used a sword in combat when that was still normal in Japan.
He is old,with bones that look fragile and weak,yet none of his demonstration had any extra unnessecary moves,no more than what he knows,no misstep or fault in his footwork,all refined and perfected with time dedication and will,he may be dead for all i know,but in this video,his souls essence has been captured as the movment in his blade cut the screen itself
@@grimthereaper4254 when he does the vibrations thing at the end the camera has to many imagesxsecond (Its like when un move ur hand fast in front of ur eyes)
I read about this when I was a kid but to actually see and hear it demonstrated and understand what it signified in real combat was chilling. I still can't make out exactly how's he's doing it.
it's either being done entirely for show, or it's a bad training scar and it's the mark of someone who has spent a lot of time training and little if any time in actual combat. in combat you would never take the time to flick blood off your precious little sword after every cut in order to keep it pretty. you would cut, then look for the next target. no trainer of combative martial arts would ever teach this.
if you have practiced any kind of arts and hold some understanding to what you do, you should easily be able to tell that this gentleman has been living with his sword through his life. the moves are so clean, perfect, and beautiful. every detail is polished for a million times. he knows what he is doing.
He shows respect to his sword, the judges and the audience. The motions are quick and precise. It may not be as exciting as movie works, but this is not a movie. Practitioners understand. I doubt my body could be that flexible now. Bravo Master.
Of course, in that specific sense he is perfect. I am only a miserable Go Dan in three martial arts, but have never been happy with the over-emphasis on form purity in the Japanese martial arts.
He the type of man Cid Kagenou would be proud to call master. No unnecessary movements, looking cool and sharing the art of combat while being able to hold a CONVERSATION.
I am not a swordsman, but appreciate it, and the efficiency, elegance and speed. Due to my ignorance, I may have never seen someone strike angular in Chiburui, but this is what caught my eye. It is so efficient, quick, and humble in that it happens so fast but draws so little attention to the technique. It is beautiful and almost inexplicably elegant and honorable. It is absolutely beautiful, and thank you for sharing this.
It's crazy to think this is done with a real sharp blade. I know that may sound silly but look how close his sword is to his body the siltiest error and he's cut himself. Small things like that make this all the more impressive.

10th dan in anything being knocked out by the first random mma guy is pretty common these days.
@@RipAndTear. pretty sure this 10th Dan would chop off that random mma guys arms off before he could land a strike
@@tyebando5123 i would probably too if i am to wear a katana and the other guy is empty handed..not you ?
It depends on the method. My father had a work buddy who was an 8th degree Don and you would never know by looking at him. Guy had a fall and broke his neck. Drove himself to the hospital to make sure everything was ok. That’s when he found out to the astonishment of the ER team.
He seems to be slow at first glance, then I realized the time between the starts to move his hands toward his katana, and the time he finished the first slay, is actually shorter than half second.
The casual perfection is soothing. The blade doesn't shake, there's no wasted movement, the utter control and precision, it's all quite beautiful.
The fact that he has a beard makes him more menacing
The fact that he has a beard changes nothing in a real battle setting. ;) When your life is on the line and the only option is to kill, you tend to not look at trivial things as "a beard".
Dont act like you know some shit about real life situation , intimidation is a good weapon for people with no will, and what he said about the beard is kind of a joke comment dont take it so seriously.
intimidation can help in battle
@@ozysalt4831 And how do YOU know about a real life battle situation? And do you really think people with no will are the real threath in a melee battle? If you get intimidated by a beard, you ll run away when you see a man with a mask holding a naginata. And i doubt soldiers of that time were like that. Just imagine. I do almost everyday.

The way this 81 yr old demonstrates Iaijutsu is just amazing. His agility and quick movements for an 81 yr old...impressive. I mean, we have a president who can't even walk up a flight of stair to the airplane without tripping let alone read from a teleprompter.
The fact he has both ears is a testament to his skill, greater than any single demonstration.
That's what I thought when I see him put his sword back in without even the slightest effort.
Is it very common to lose an ear if you practice japanese swordsmanship?
@@saulsanchez8018 No. But doesn't watching him put it right next to his ear make you nervous? xD
If you or I practiced that style, we'll be given wooden training swords, to spend thousands of hours practicing before being allowed near a sharp katana, but still.... one mistake, and ouchies! x.x
😂
I speak fluent japanese and therefore know that having ten fingers is a prerequisite to achieving 10th dan in Tenshin Shōden Katori Shintō-ryū. 9 fingers - only 9th dan, 8 fingers - 8th dan and so on. But what does Katana mean? It means japanese sword!
It may look slow, but those moves could kill a man in the blink of an eye.
Interesting that you say so, I'm new here.
Yes. A veeeeryyyyy slooow bliiiink
So true
Yeah, don't be fooled by the slow, deliberate moves within his forms. I'm pretty sure he could go scary fast in a heartbeat.
So could any man holding a damn samurai sword. Dont have to be a 10th dan "master"
You'd think he moves way too slow for actual combat, but it only appears this way because video itself is slowed down hundredfold, otherwise ordinary humans wouldn't be able to see his movements
Haha good one
yup and one wrong move, you know what might happen..
Well, katana were not meant for close combat. It functions more like a claymore. Some were even very defensive and could easily deflect heavy blows and withstand numerous arquebus(yes ninjas used 1 bullet guns) shots.
Well we all are fools here right stupid..
Sir Dude you need to read more about japan history. Ninjas are spies and do not use guns, only some soldiers in the frontline do. Plus gun was only introduced half way in the warring states period, and only some of the daimyo owns them. The weapon worked as a living-saving straw and is consider rare since most of them were from trade.
Amazing!

Miss those days, miss Japan and their respectful culture and amazing food...We called it Iiaido, not sure about this name...
iaido is the modern distillation of several older iaijutsu schools, in a similar way that kendo is the modern distillate of several kenjutsu schools. This is Tenshinshoden Katori Shinto ryu, an old school founded in the late 1400s. It teaches the use of a number of different weapons, and includes iaijutsu/battojutsu in the curriculum.

That movement is INSANELY fluid. It's like the sword became an extension of his entire arm.
Ive always loved the amount of respect these guys have for their weapon
When you take into consideration that their weapons were also works of art masterfully and precisely crafted by hand over the course of a year or more, respect is an understatment. I would imagine there was a time when dying by the blade made by a certain smith was an honor.
@Zih Vil the vikings didn't pass down swords through generations? But I agree he fuckin rectums that "tana" to the mf hilt daddy

respect the weapon , and it will serve you well over decades.
I cant tell if you writing a whole book about petty little shit is impressive or not
I've trained Kenjutsu for some years, there is a subtle difference between experienced (in years and years of training, not sword-sword to the death lol) samurai and newcomers.
Newcomers move with clear effort, focus on each of their movement, and attention to the enemy. That is scary if you have the presence and know how to use that to scare the enemy... but experienced samurai? They move like butter, so precise, and yet looks so effortless. Their gaze is rock solid, they don't look like they're about to defeat you, but are waiting for your mind to lose focus for a split second, and without you knowing if, they strike or were ready for your strike. It's kinda terrifying.
those were not real samurais and you did not learn real kenjutsu

In case people don't see what's going on, he's demonstrating how to execute an opener which became fundamental when using the design of the Katana. The unsheathing into an opener became so ingrained in the art style that some consider a fight won or lost depending on how well you execute it (real fights don't last long, usually 30 seconds to 2 mins max depending on your opponent's tenacity and willingness to fight back).
This wasn't to demonstrate force or agility since this is an elegant art style which focuses on technique than brute strength, also his age probably prevents him from exerting to much energy, and these swings aren't the "Secret OP Dragon Ninja, call me an Uber because I need to GTFO of here" move you can just watch and emulate and will work 100% of the time. That's not how dueling works or hand to hand combat, it's all dynamic and situational. What he just did was demonstrate different openers depending on a situation, much like most Martial Arts, you drill these instructions into your muscle memory and then you forget everything you learn so it becomes second nature to you (instinctive).
This if anything was just a pretty display of Katori Shinto Ryu, he's a Master and also very old, he's dedicated his life to this art and spectators just wanted to see what he was about. Any real test of the Martial Art has to be proven during war times since that's when majority of these Martial Arts techniques started flourishing and in times of peace schools all over Asia started popping up to advertise the superiority of their art style over another.
In short, Tenshin Shōden Katori Shintō-ryū is a very old Martial Arts style that "checks out", it was used during war and was very effective. The art form was created in 1447 and since then there has been 18 wars leading up to WWII where rifles became the choice weapon in the modern age.
Jameslawz some schools teach rifle&bayonet.old families train in sword&naginata!
They used naginata spears and bows at war, sword is just a sidearm at a battlefield. Also I could whoop this guy up at kendo.
I’m sure I was used to see who could chop off the most Chinese heads before WW2 and then posted in local newspapers in japan bragging on the guy who chopped off 1 more head than the other guy 101 heads to 100 heads yeah ahhh 🖕
J CG lol would hope so, he's only 147 after all..... And to be completely fair, he'd probably give you a run for your money if not kick your ass outright with no effort.
ty for your explanation
He has excellent control of the blade. His cuts have virtually no recoil and his movements are precise and fluid. Ive trained this same Kata and am no where near this precise.
Ok sir thank you because im ignorant about this art and thought he did nothing special but you cleared that up for me. Thanks again!
@@livingStone-i5l no problem 👍. The sword style is called Iaido and translates to unleashing the sword. It was developed for use during peacetime. Because you could not tell if or when someone would attack you the Art was developed to draw the blade and attack in one quick motion. Lots of blocks and strikes aren't necessary in this type of scenario so in iaido the emphasis is placed on precision, fluidity, and speed.
Bruce Lee will beat him up!😁
It’s like practicing quick draw, how quickly can you go from holstered to kill shot. I can see on his face he is imagining his opponent, blocking his moves and wiping his blood off.
Sure his cut has no recoil, he's cutting low density air...at the speed of smell.
He'd show us his Bankai but it would kill everyone in that room and within a 50 mile radius.

It's just from him spinning the blade in his hand so fast that the camera can't catch the frames, so the blade seems like it's not spinning at all. Until he stops the spin and draws back, revealing the effect you notice.
His moves are like an effortless butterfly.. that's how I know he's legit.
I don't need to see anything impressive or fast to realize I could never cross blades when this man and win.
I saw his perfect flow of each cut and movement.
I'm sure his full speed cut would be hardly visible to the eye.
So he had to go slow for that old camera and the audience.

I would really like to hear an experienced Sword User talking about what he sees in Sugino Sensei's movements.
I've only practiced 2 years by myself, and I can already notice the smoothness of his movements, the self control, the balance of his stance, the afterimages lol.
It gives me chills. It would have been an honor to watch him alive.
Amazing... outstanding.
Some shit he does I'm not sure the practical battle use of but he does sword before body and takes passing steps correctly. I don't understand the after image though. Shit blows my mind. Alot of eastern sword stuff has movements in the katas just for showing off or stretching and he really only does like 2 unreasonable things in this video. Rest is clean. Would be cool to study under some one like this though.
@@novacombatarts I really don't catch what are unreasonable moves, if you could point them out I would be grateful, just for analysis purpose. I do know that martial arts have some... ornamental movements in it, but to be honest I have rarely seen those in asian sword practice. Some are for etiquette, some show a cultural tradition, but yeah some are outright just flashy, specially the modern styles. But well, it depends.
Afterimages actually are because he just moves slightly faster than what the motion capture technology could afford in that era (nowadays in a digital video it would look blurry, back then, and in grayscale, it looks like an afterimage) , so it creates that effect. It still looks very cool hahah specially because his movements are very calculated, so it doesn't look like a video issue, it just looks like an afterimage hahaha
@@thehumanpractice2985 so the first is the way he draws the sword at 1:58. He wouldn't have much leverage and the movement is to big and would cost to much time. It's just kinda unessasary to draw your blade like that. That one isn't to big of a deal though. The other one that really stands out to me is how he waves his sword around at 2:50. Idk why he does this because one that's not a great parry . 2 his tip is no longer pointed at the enemy creation a threat for them to deal with. If your kneeling or sitting imo you need to have the tip pointed towards the enemy so they have to use a tempo to deal with the threat, which is your sword. Before they can attack you. If your tip isn't forward they will just kill you in the middle of your movement. Sense he is kneeling he cannot reatreat and sense he also moves both his has at the same time he has pretty much spent all his tempos. He is essentially a sitting duck. That paired with the wide swing and no threat presented to stop the enemy it wouldn be great martially. Granted I could be missing something there. I know some times you parry with your tip pointed up as what's called a steal wall parry to shut off a entire line of attack. But to do this your sword needs to continously cover that line. Not move it to the other side of your body opening another line. Also I do understand the frame rate it's just wierd how it's always after he flicks his sword lol.
@@novacombatarts I can totally see that now.
Maybe we are missing something, probably. It does look fishy, especially the second one, the first just looks flashy.
Although several times I've seen a movement and thought "WEll that doesn't work", only to find my pov wrong after. Maybe someday we'll know haha
And if you look closely he also leaves an afterimage, but his sword is more noticeable because of the shine probably. Such a menacing aura
Really wish we could have footage of some of the monsters around the era of musashi, people literally fighting wars and death matches trying to become the strongest, you'll never be able to replicate some of the people of that era now that swords are outdated, sure hema, sword schools and kendo can be impressive but compared to back when these weapons were used in combat.. it's all lost to time which is a good and bad thing.

Elderly master is demonstrating techniques centered around drawing the sword. Neat thing is he may almost be old enough to have been trained by someone that actually used a sword in combat when that was still normal in Japan.
He is old,with bones that look fragile and weak,yet none of his demonstration had any extra unnessecary moves,no more than what he knows,no misstep or fault in his footwork,all refined and perfected with time dedication and will,he may be dead for all i know,but in this video,his souls essence has been captured as the movment in his blade cut the screen itself
