I’ve now come to a conclusion:
Samurai & Wu Lin: Elegance
Vikings: Brutality
Knights: A mixture of both
Knights: Efficiency
@@bastik.3011 AND elegance, if you think about it
Good summary 😎🤟
@@bastik.3011 yeah that seems about right
@@bastik.3011 I agree.
3:19 idk if anyone talked about it but that was Seppuku the practice of cutting ones belly to regain honor and having someone take your head almost immediately with one swing.
instead of executing him and shaming him the Kensei is giving him the chance to die with honor
😎👍🙂
Honour is regained by releasing the soul, thought to be residing within a person’s stomach or lower chest
the decapitation is a newer addition to seppuku
for example if Japan had the death penalty by seppuku you would get decapitated after the act in order to give a fast death. but seppuku was supposed to be a slow death and the slower the death the more honorable and stronger the samurai
Yepp, this move is brutal but still heroic, "uplifting" He deeply respect the opponent, and become his opponent assitant in sepukku(death in praise), what was almost the highest honor in the medieval Japan.
@@samuraispeltwrong Okay but this cannot be too long in teh game..
Anyway the decapitation in seppuku has one rule: If the assistant see the man who commit the sepukku start loose his bravery and would show sign of agony and pain, the assistant "save him from the shame" and help him to keep his honor and triumph in Death. The assistants were samurais too, and they also well known the doer of the seppuku.
So if you could use an assistant in seppuku, it was a big honor also to the assistant, also to who comited the sepukku.
I like how the newer characters keep getting progressively more anime.
I think anime is gore then this game
😎🤟
I don’t because I like the more grounded in reality feel of For Honor as a fighting game and all of the dismemberment kills and anime stuff ruins that for me however at the end of the day it is a game and I understand a lot of people are entertained by that stuff. The game is a real gem 💎 regardless and I hope it gets a second installment.
lol your pic
At the end it will be naruto
The historical sources that the development team used for all factions is a really good way of getting into a bit of the history. Obviously the two factions are Japan and China. The former I don't have much knowledge on, but the latter (Wu Lin) have underpinnings in the historical weapons as well as shaolin. The double hook sword is something that us fun to learn. Ranton had a video on the Wu Lin's first 4 characters as he actually did study and live at the shaolin temple. Not monetization friendly though.
Thanks for the info 😃
Osoto-Gari on Kensei is actually a Judo throw, however he uses his sword into the actual throw to decapitate them, but it is actually a very efficient way to trip up your opponent.
In game or like actuality?
@@ChaolaoFueChi In game, normally you don’t use a sword in the throw, but it's a unique twist from Ubi.
😎🤟😃
Oh ye I used to practice judo for a bit and I remember it
Dbd and for honor... WHY?
Fun fact, the Kensei's sword is in fact real, and is in fact VERY capable of decapitating some *one* or some *thing* with ease, provided it's in the right hands.
Based on how easily the Kensei handles his sword, the Nodachi, you can understand that he's probably trained with it his entire life. They're an exceptionally difficult sword to handle, the obvious reason being their length.
😯
Though the Nodachi was suppose to be used to kill horses
@@XtreemAlanOne year late, but it's cavalry, not just horse killing.
19:30 that last guy is named shaolin and he's a monk. Everyone calls him monkey due to his fighting style, bo staff, and monkey mask
He’s also based on the monkey king from journey to the west, or at least his weapon is.
😎🤟
Well, he is definitely the personified close to the monkey king.
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames He’s heavily inspired by Sun Wukong and, well, tge Shaolin monks, obviously. Very fun to play but hard to understand.
I main Shaolin and he is so fun to use against lawbringers. His 'Qi Stance' makes my attacks so unpredictable.
Shugoki will always be my favourite, i love that he knows that he's a BIG lad and he used it to his advantage...such as walking on someone or sitting on someone's head XD
Gotta love people that know who they are and lean into it 😊🥳☺️
Listen, if you're 6'10 and 600 pounds, you gotta know how to use it to your advantage
Kensei 1:15
Orochi 3:34
Shinobi 5:30
Hitokiri 7:17
Kyoshin 8:16
Shugoki 8:51
Nobushi 11:15
Aramusha 13:11
Tiandi 14:59
Nuxia 16:21
Zhanhu 17:24
Jiang Jun 18:06
Shaolin 19:28
22:31, the "girl with the really long sword", her name is Fu Huo and her class is called Zhanhu (fighting tiger in Chinese) and that character is based on a real historical figure that existed centuries ago, precisely the Jin Yi Wei. Those were the secret police of the Chinese empire, like some sort of KGB or CIA but way tougher and ruthless and they got lots of power in their hands, also all of them were of noble extraction, just like Fu Huo and her male counterpart Sun Da.
In-game they're masters of the Changdao which is a Chinese long sword which was also a heavy infantry weapon and in-game they weild it like it's nothing. In fact they weild it so well and gracefully that some of their attacks are hard to parry. They're also masters of fire ingame so they're quite vicious to deal with in 4v4s.
Thanks for the info on Fu Huo 😃🥳
Huo like fire?
22:14
The weapons that the shinobi use are called kusarigama, they are small scythes called kama in Japanese, along with a chain, they are so sick
Different from the real thing however
😎🤟 Thanks!
17:05, although the way she (Nuxia) uses it is not in the intended way, the thing she uses are called caltrops. They are pretty much road spikes that stop horses from entering but in the modern day can also used to destroy tires
😎👍 name sounded familiar and getting tires is how we associate it
The wukong connection is very fitting for the showlin monk as it's one of the main fighting styles they practice as self defense/meditation it's literally the monkey stance! (There are many others which I think mostly connect with the Chinese New year animals?)
Very cool 😃
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames heck yeah! I always think we should know some base stuff of different religious practices and deities and then do some self research and see what cool/interesting stuff you can find when they are referenced in movies and game est est
The sword that Kensei (the first Samurai hero shown) is using is called a Nodachi. This is a much larger variant of a Katana, and it's usually used as an anti-cavalry weapon (you would chop off the horse's legs as it was charging you, thus sending its rider flying when it collapses).
😎🤟
More For Honor goodness with what I would say is my fave faction(s) even without having played. I like knights, I like Vikings, I love Samurai, they're style and grace and badassness. Awesome sauce!👍
Bonus points for the awesome sauce 😊
19:27 That guy is supposed to be a monk not exactly a wizard lol he drives me crazy sometimes he’s soo damn fast and each hit does a lot of damage
Nah shaolin its bullshit
shaolin is actual garbage fym
Monks are just less flashy wizards 😂🤗
@@ratcastle8718 he is bull shit I agree with you
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames haha yea
Seppuku is an honorable death where the person stabs their stomach with a small dagger and someone else cuts their head off. It's used to also re-honor someone who has done things to make them and /or their family dishonorable. Though some people tried to do Seppuku without having their head cut off leading to a slow death.
😎👍🙂
Love watching you two react to these. I need to get back into For Honor one of these days, now that I think about it.
Also, no matter how many times I see it, the Senkei execution (5:10) gives me happy pants feelings. It's just so cool!
Edit: The worst part about "Doormat" (9:28) is that when it's used on you, the controller rattles like crazy. They do a good job with making you FEEL the executions, too.
“Happy pants feelings” 😂 👏 😊
Always happy to see more For Honor.
😁
3:19 is an actual thing that happens when a samurai warrior has surrendered to another samurai warrior that concludes the battle, this is how they keep their families honour and it is a great honour to have your superior foe cut your head off after you've plunged your own dagger into your gut. Live by the sword and die by the sword.
Aramusha (guy with dual katanas) is my main and favorite, and I’m glad y’all enjoy the For Honor executions
They were super fun to check out and loved the different style of each faction 😊
Like Dooku said: "I've been looking forward to this"
Pretty sure count dooku says that 😂
Confused confusion I guess
😎🤟🥳
next friday fight night suggestions 1: Manhunt 1 or 2 all executions. 2: Anarchy reigns grabs and executions. 3: Street fighter 5 champion edition all critical arts. 4: Tekken 7 all season characters Rage arts
Thanks for all the fun suggestions for fight night! 😃
The execution with the first samurai (kensei) where the victim stabs themselves before getting their head cut off is called Seppuku (I believe, I could be wrong :P) It was a real thing in samurai culture and was seen as an honorable death. Although the way it is done in for honor is slightly different, still same idea.
The "pickaxes" were sickles on a chain. The character is shinobi.
Sickles! That’s the word I was looking for 😅
The kill where they stabs him self then gets there head cut off is a honorable death for the samurai
🙂👍
I have been waiting so long. Thanks guys!
Our pleasure 🥳😃
I have absolutely been waiting for this video. So hyped that you get to see all the kills.
🥳🥳😃😁
yayyy a video i have been waiting for thank you
We know 😊🤗🥳
Glad you enjoyed all those executions guys was really fun to watch 🍺😄 hopefully will ask a request someday when you guys aren’t busy 😁
Glad you enjoyed them 😃🥳🥂🍾
5:14 The laugh killed me😅😅😅😅
😁🤗
Finally!!! Yes! Good job guys!! 👍👌
Thanks, Razzie! 🥳🥳
You are a feisty couple love you guys and thank you for cheering me up the other day ❤️❤️
YOOOO new for honor reaction dropped
😁🍾
At 3:18 The Warden is committing Seppuku (Japanese ritual su!c!de)
The Samurai is aiding him as his Kaishakunin
😎👍 Thanks! 😃
3:21 that is the most honorable death from the samurai faction
I've been waiting for this
☺️🥳
Yeahhh finally found this videooooo, you rock guys
😎🤟🥳
Love seeing your reactions to these kills and the mortal Kombat ones! Keep up the great videos and making my weeks wonderful 🤍
😃🥳🥳🥳🥳🥰😊🤗
Love the context you guys post. Keep it up!!
Thanks! 😃🥳🥰🤗
There's a couple of RUclips channels you should check out that talk about this game. One is called Metatron and the other is Raven Knight. They both did an analysis on which For Honor characters would be the deadliest in a real life fight to the finish. They also give some great context on the weapons and armor used. You'd enjoy them.
Thanks for the channel recs 😃
Now this is what I’ve been waiting for
😁
Shinobi's (Scorpion-like dude) waepons name - kusarigama
Shugoki's - kanabo
And the zhanhu´s (Girl with a really long sword) - Changdao
You're welcome ;)
Thanks! 😃
Well done amazing content just started watching and subscribed keep it up feisty couple! XD
Welcome! 🥳🥳🍾🥂 Glad you are enjoying the content 🤗 And great timing too as we just posted a new For Honor vid yesterday 😀
Yooo loved your guys reaction!
Yay! 😃🥳🥳🥳☺️
Ware Shinaba is basically an assisted voluntary seppuku (probably to reduce the endurance of pain for the victim), where it, usually done by the Japanese as a form of suicide, was done to restore honour for themselves or for others if defeated in battle and wanted to die honourably by their code, Japanese being Bushido. (I am not Japanese btw, but still an Asian)
-Good job using the term hara-kiri, it's just rarely used amongst Japanese
Thank you very much for the info 😃
I started like a month ago watching yer videos. I like them :D
Yay! Officially welcome 🥳🥳🥳🍾🥂 Even though you’ve been here a bit now 😊🥰🤗
Recommendation for another video: (UPDATED) The Last Skywalker [100K Special] is by far the best Star Wars tribute i've ever seen.
Do plan to check that one out eventually 🤩🥳
The shinobi's weapon what you called a pick axe is called kusarigama. As far as my knowledge goes it was more used as a cutting tool like opening fences and such rathert than a main weapon. It is also intresting the devs put a shinobi in the game as they were more like spies than fighters
😎👍 Thanks for the info! 😃
I'm sure someone's already done this, but here's some historical facts about weapons of the samurai (in order of appearance of the characters)
Kensei: The Nodachi, or Odachi, which is essentially a two handed sword version of a katana. The japanes had a different form of measurement called a shaku, which is equivalent to about 11 inches. Nodachi were to have 3 shaku, while the katana were 2 shaku. Nodachi were specifically battle weapons, meaning they were not intended to parade around town like you would a katana.
Orochi: the Iconic katana. Despite pop culture and popular opinion, katanas were meant to be secondary weapons, though eventually they became their own primary after the nodachi went out.
Shinobi: the Kusarigama is one of many weapons in a shinobi's arsenal that were converted farm tools. While the line between historical shinobi weapons and pop culture are a little fuzzy, the kusarigama is a known weapon of the shinobi, though it was used less often for practical reasons.
Hitokiri: the masakari or ono is just a typical woodsman axe. While the shape of the blade is diverse, masakari only had one head. Ubisoft claimed the hitokiri's weapon has two heads is to make the weapon more unique, as all other axes had one head.
Kyoshin: the shikomizue is essentially the samurai's cane sword. It's made famous for the person who used it, Zatoichi, a fictional blind samurai.
Shugoki: the kanabo or tetsubo has one of the most fearsome reputations in japanese weaponry. It's size was very diverse, ranging from the length of a forearm to even the size of the wielder. The kanabo is used by the Oni, the legendary japanese ogres. The practicality of the weapon itself had no art to it like the katana or bow did. It's capable of smashing armor and breaking bone with relative ease. The knob on the end is meant to be a counterweight, similar to the pommel of European longswords.
Nobushi: the naginata is yet another well known weapon of feudal japan. Two groups of soldiers were well known to wield them: the wives of lords when they needed to defend the castle or the many warrior monks of japan, known as sohei. One of the most famous sohei was Benkei, a warrior monk who guarded a bridge until either someone defeated him or claimed a thousand blades from victories. Benkei's final moments were at the battle of koromo river, where he died standing upright, despite being riddled with arrows.
Aramusha: since aramusha uses the same weapons as the orochi, here's another tidbit about him. The aramusha is based off the ronin, or masterless samurai. The death of a master left the samurai to be ronin. While they were regarded as part of the peasant class, they themselves still called themselves samurai. This meant that they didn't try to make a living for themselves and often leeched off others.
Appreciate you sharing the info on the weapons with us 😃🤩
Whilst what you say is correct I just feel like pointing some misconceptions out about the Katana;
first off the katana even if it is shorter than most western swords at the time the katana was always a two handed sword, the weight of it made it impractical to be used with one hand and the role for a one handed sword often fell on the wakizashi.
Also the reason that the katana became the "main" weapon of samurai is not because the odachi went out of favour. Once shogun Tokugawa unified Japan he made certain sword lengths illegal which turned the odachi into a purely display weapon, and the Samurai main weapon, the Yari became impractical in the more urban environments like a rifle to a pistol.
So in reality the katana became the main weapon for samurai the same way the police main weapon is the pistol. The katana never actually left its sidearm role even up to world war two where it was carried by officers.
Sorry if this was "ranty", I just really like samurai history.
BTW, in the case of Ronin, while it IS true that some just mooched off of others, many more actually traveled the land to find a new source of stable employment wherever they could find it. This is, in Japanese pop-culture, generally where the 'wandering swordsman' trope comes from.
the first character uses a "ōdachi" (great sword) basically a bigger and meaner Katana. The last execution by this character is what's referred to as "Seppuku" or ritual suicide, as a last act to die with honor.
😎👍🙂
Both factions in one video?!?! Sign me up 😋😋😋
😁🥳🥳
16:22 that character with the swords reminds me of Kabal!!
😯 good call
The execution when they guy got stabed in the gut then had his head cut off is called speuku and is considered a honorable death amoung the samurai
bro you deserve way more subs and views
Thanks so much! 🥳🥳😎🤟🍾🥂
The reason why the first one has so many decapitations, is because it's honorable to behead your opponent, for the Samurai.
Ayeeeee hella happy for the for honor content. And loved the extra reaction. If you can try and look at gryphon’s “Heads will roll” execution, Bethany won’t like it 😂
Glad you caught the bonus reaction 😉
YOU. GUYS. FUGGIN. ROCK!! 😂😂😂
😎🤟😝
Don't know if anyone commented this, but the execution where the knight stabs himself and the samurai cuts off his head is called seppuku, it was originally reserved for samurai in their code of honor.
Thanks! 😃
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Some further context: Seppuku was essentially an honourable form of suicide that allowed a samurai who was going to die anyway, be it due to being defeated in battle or being "marked for execution" as a result of courtly/honour matters, to die at his own hands in a final act of honour. It was also an act that required the permission of whoever decides your fate at that time to perform, so the Kensei allowed this knight to die in this honourable manner as a sign of respect.
A further sign of the Kensei's respect here is that the role of the "second" (cutting of the head) was considered a great burden. Performing it well would get you no fame, but messing it up would mean a lifetime of disgrace. So the second has nothing to gain and everything to lose in this duty. Hence, the Kensei's willingness to perform this duty for a defeated enemy shows how far he's willing to go in order to pay his respects while still ensuring that his enemy dies in the end.
Additional notes: All of the Samurai heroes have this Seppuku execution and all the Wu-Lin have the execution where they gently put a lantern on the corpse of their foe, but the person who recorded the footage showed each only once to prevent the redundancy some of the earlier videos had since they always look the same.
Haiii I’ve been watching your videos lately and I love it. I also just subscribed and I can’t wait for more stuff from you. You guys are amazing xo
Welcome! 🥳🥳🥳🍾🥂🤗😃
Nobushi(character) with the naginata(spear with a knife at the end of it) is satisfying.
😎🤟
*me who has been waiting for this video. “YESSSSSSS!!!!”
😊🥳😇
so in case you guys didnt know the light thing that floats above a dead persons body collects there soul then it floats up to the one place you wanna be
We didn’t know that. Thanks! 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames no problem
Kusarigama - The traditional Japanese weapon consists of a kama (Japanese sickle) with a chain-and-weight attached. It is brutal in close quarters but can also be thrown and retracted for medium-distance attacks.
Pretty fierce weapon 😯
Samurai Weapons
The ōdachi or nodachi is a type of traditionally made Japanese sword used by the samurai class of feudal Japan. The Chinese equivalent of this type of sword in terms of weight and length is the miao dao, and the Western battlefield equivalent is the longsword or claymore. The character for ō means "big" or "great"
A katana is a Japanese sword characterized by a curved, single-edged blade with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands. Developed later than the tachi, it was used by samurai in feudal Japan and worn with the blade facing upward.
The naginata is a pole weapon and one of several varieties of traditionally made Japanese blades. Naginata were originally used by the samurai class of feudal Japan, as well as by ashigaru and sōhei. The naginata is the iconic weapon of the onna-bugeisha, a type of female warrior belonging to the Japanese nobility. I would forge Bethany a Naginata, a weapon fit for a fierce woman.
A kusarigama is a traditional Japanese weapon that consists of a kama on a kusari-fundo - a type of metal chain with a heavy iron weight at the end. The kusarigama is said to have been developed during the Muromachi period. The art of handling the kusarigama is called kusarigamajutsu. This is not my favorite, flashy but hard to master than a Katana.
The kanabō is a spiked or studded two-handed war club used in feudal Japan by the samurai. Other related weapons of this type are the nyoibo, konsaibo, tetsubō, and ararebo. Related solid iron weapons with no spikes or studs are the kanemuchi and the aribo
Wu Lin Weapons
Dao - Dao are single-edged Chinese swords, primarily used for slashing and chopping. The most common form is also known as the Chinese sabre, although those with wider blades are sometimes referred to as Chinese broadswords.
Hook swords - twin hooks, fu tao, hu tou gou or shuang gou is a Chinese weapon traditionally associated with northern styles of Chinese martial arts and Wushu weapons routines, but now often practiced by southern styles as well.
Guandao - A guandao is a type of Chinese pole weapon that is used in some forms of Chinese martial arts. In Chinese, it is properly called a yanyuedao (偃月刀; lit. "reclining moon blade"), the name under which it always appears in texts from the Song to Qing dynasties such as the Wujing Zongyao and Huangchao Liqi Tushi.
Staff - A bō, bong, pang, bang, or kun is a staff weapon used in Okinawa. Bō are typically around 1.8 m and used in Okinawan martial arts, while being adopted into Japanese arts such particular bōjutsu. Other staff-related weapons are the jō, which is 1.2 m long, and the hanbō, which is 90 cm long. Fun fact, im a bo staff practitioner going strong for 10 years.
Changdao - A bō, bong, pang, bang, or kun is a staff weapon used in Okinawa. Bō are typically around 1.8 m and used in Okinawan martial arts, while being adopted into Japanese arts such particular bōjutsu. Other staff-related weapons are the jō, which is 1.2 m long, and the hanbō, which is 90 cm long.
That's Weapons facts from yours truly, ill be back for more if needed
Thanks so much for all the weapons facts 😃🤩
3:22 I think he went behind him and chopped off his head for two reasons.
1. Not to make his opponent afraid of dying by someone else's hand, so he got out of line of sight
2. Less painful than the drawn out death that would have happened by a stab wound to the gut, but he still wanted his opponent to die honorably.
The name of the Shinobi (scorpion)s weapon is the kusarigama, and the Viking at the end was a warlord lol highlander is the one with the massive sword
Ah, thanks! 😃
R.I.P Bethany suffered from witnessing for honor executions for the first time (this shit is normal to me I see it everyday)
🤗
(Just laughed)
Miss Bethany's Face in most of the execution:🤢🤧🥶🤯😰
Ooooooh, since it’s the spooky month you guys have to watch the executions from manhunt 1 & 2. Just…bring some drinks. Trust me
And The Darkness games! The Darkness games are fuckin great!
I'm not sure they'd have the heart for Manhunt kills 😅
Not sure if we will get to them but we do have that in our list ☺️😇
You are a feisty couple love you guys and thank you for chewing me up the other day ❤️❤️
Always happy if we are able to cheer you up, SS! ☺️🥳🤗😊
Love this react 🤩 Samuraï is my league 🌹
😎🤟
Been waiting for the samurais and wu lin. Obviously ken appreciates the vikings brutality so bethany i hope you loved the samurais graceful style.
Yep. Different styles for each of us 😊
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Thats definitely obvious haha. To be honest i do love how you said the wu lin seemed like dancers, you guys are so great when describing the experience you witness
The samurai executions have a way of both impressing me and enraging me and it hurts
😂 why does it anger you? Just curious 🙃
It always seems to me they go the extra mile and make some of them...too flashy? Idk how to really describe it
Hitokiri’s executions are always brutal. I love them.
Fun Fact: Real world ninjas used Sickles more often than not because most of them were farmers or from that kind of area.
I think they figured that the sickle's curve could be used creatively... say- for killing.
That makes sense 🙂 appreciate the fun fact 😀🥳
@16:43 I just remembered that Kabal from the Mortal Kombat Franchise has those same akimbo weapons
The last one was a Shalion monk he is using Chi in the Maximum Shalion execution. The one with the Scorpion Sting in the Shinobi a favorite of mine. The one that did the many cuts was Orochi the one I play most.
😎👍😃 Thanks for the info on the characters
there is on pretty cool tradition in ancient samurai history some samurai's would bring the head of there enemy to there comander and chief and sometimes display it to show as triomph they called it head taking very logical name
Didn’t know about that tradition 😯
Shaolin (The one at the end) is based off of Sun Wu Kong so his personality is that of a trickster like Wu Kong himself.
Yeah we were glad we saw the Wukong trailer before this 😃
20:08 "ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA-- ORAAA!!!"
🥳
The 2nd Wu Lin had same weapon as Kabal and Mavado in MK, the Hook Swords
Damn these people trynna bring back the reaction meta
😂🤗
The reason the Japanese weapons like katanas seem much cleaner and sharper, is because Japanese swords in general were made for slashing more than stabbing, while European swords were designed for fluid, quick movements and to be good at both. Katanas were also a bit on the heavy side for swords.
😎👍🙂
wasn't the katana made of a core of hard steal and a shel of soft steal
@@cayde6destiny894 Yes. It was a harder, higher carbon steel and a softer, loeer carbon steel. Thats why it curves the way it does, and why katanas tend to chip rather than simply snapping if faced with more pressure than the harder steel can normally handle.
Me:I played as kyoshin
The crowd:(cheered)
The sword in the begining was designed to take down horses cause cavelry was very strong
😎👍
Shugoki is the biggest character in the game and sheesh he's scary
Scary awesome 😁
3:11 That was SICK
The reason samurai blades are always clean it is a tradition if the blade does not get clean the blade won't be as affective as other blades
Simple reminder rhat the heaviest swords confirmed to have been utilized in combat were never more than 10 pounds in weight.
I do hope they make some knights and vikings who don't fall into the trope of having heavy blunt weapons. Some of the newer customization options for characters like the Wardan do have more realistic proportians, like the blade isn't super thick and all, but they all still use them as if these are heavy objects when they are in fact very graceful in use. The viking axes maybe not so such, but the longswords and zweihander is quite poorly represented as big clunky and heavy.
The historical moves for these european swords are honestly more flashy in the manuals than what we see from japanese kendo but it is never shown like that in pop culture. Creators seem to forget that those swords have 2 edges to utilize in some very impressive fluid moves, but entertainment media never shows that unlike with chinese and japanese media which loves to show their respective martial artists as very over the top and flashy, though differently since Japan focuses more on the speed and cutting power fantasy of a katana while China likes the dancing spinning warriors. In china theres even a whole sport around impressive looking rehersed sword and spear fights AKA Wushu.
I do wish more movies like Jet Li's Fearless existed. Would be perfectly over the top for a Beowulf movie.
😎🤟 well said 🤩
10:22 am I the only 1 that heard call de manager😂
Kensei is your average samurai but with an odachi which is 180 cm (I use it in Kenjutsu). Orochi is what we call a weeb. Shugoki is what I call a giant panda with no remorse for killing. Nobushi is everyone's waifu and my personal favorite female character. Shinobi is the same as Orochi but actually better (in-game he is harder to play). Aramusha is an epic ronin (I have him to rep 70 so I have a biased opinion ofc). Hitokiri is everyone's kryptonite. Kyoshin is what we call an overpowered character.
Tiandi is apparently based off of a Mongolian warrior (I am Mongolian lol). Nuxia is a Shuang gou expert (a very hard weapon to learn btw... I tried learning it and it took me a long time to do one cool move). Jiang Jun or JJ is an old general based off of Guan Yu. Shaolin is a monk who learned the most common style (Monkey style) with the bo staff. And Zhanhu is just a pyromaniac with a Changdao.
All the character's explanations in a nutshell.
Now all the for honor videos have been done (I'm guessing)... you should do some reaction to the HU band. They have some pretty good songs. Its a mix of rock or metal and Mongolian throat singing
We will be doing more music TV movies and animation on our other channel ruclips.net/channel/UCbKJne36C-ewDbozVT2W-tA and this one is going to be more game focused 🥳
in japanese/chinese history they say when they do that it let's there soul free 16:08
I like the samurai and the wu Lin because it’s quick and the the point the rest of them are OTT like just finish it already lmao
😎🤟 it’s nice and effortless almost
Samurais have the best executions 😎
😎🤟
Of all the samurai, my favorite is Orochi because you can do turns during which you can beat the enemy so he can't dodge either. If anything, this is the one who 2 showed
Oh nice. Sounds like a badass character 😀
Female Shinobi says weeeeee when doing an execution
😎🤟
