I have a feeling a lot of historic duels were over very quickly.
Yes but this is a demonstration
Yes actually, bashing sword to sword was actually rare because the sword would break easily and iron was expensive back then so the user chose to not damage it too much. And samurais used bow and arrow more than katana so.. sword fights like you see in movies are pretty inaccurate
Funny thing, the art of sword combat is not only to kill but to show off wealth. Most samurais used polearms like spears and other long weapons in battle, but to show skill was to use the sword.
Indeed, but I believe their perception of what we, regular people call seconds may have felt longer to them... Intensity
Positive
when you go to see someone fighting with real katanas and nobody has powers or fly through the roof doing parkour.
Kinda disappointing
It gets interesting untill someone gets an arm cut off lol
@@Kamila-eb9pz have you played or seen ghost of Tsushima?
I was expecting to see some advanced conquerors haki tbh .
@@albertfrazer7642 🤣
this is reality who ever makes the better decision quicker wins the whole fight one move can change the entire battle
True it's mostly about wits, speed and strength
And it also takes one mistake to change everything
imagine getting wacked by a wooden sword in the ribs and dying
wait
@@Centzaurion "ayo" *kojiro typing*
Well said my dude! 😗👌💯
Me when I found stick
SWORD not stick..... Or commonly known as the "Bokin".... As one gains experience using the Kindo, you advance to the Bokin. The Bokin is cut and weighed at the same weight as a REAL STEEL BLADE. At the Bokin level you're hands have to get used to handle the real wait of a sword...
@@tonyyul703 that was a joke
that was a joke lol. Anyway its “Bokken” or “Bokuto” not “Bokin”
Wuppy Yadom picked up a stick!
Wuppy Yadom attack +1
The big ones on the ground
expecting to see them to release their bankai...
lol
Or use a breathing technique,Maybe even a kenjutsu technique in Naruto😂
@@skytakahashi2882 breath of water style
They don't have a zanpakuto
Lol good one
As someone said, these were split seconds between blows, I think the same, in ancient times these duels were quick, real quick.
It's impressive the amount of precision they put in every posture, thanks for sharing this video.
Yeah they probably didn't look as cool as we imagine them either. With your life on the line and all
I think something we amateurs often forget is that century ago those techniques were made to be effective during big army battles with lots of people fighting all around you. So globally you didn't had time to make many moves and tricks like in the samurai action movies cause you had to kill your openent as quickly as possible and so to prevent yourself from behind killed by behind from another guy in the melee or by spears or by another swordsman enemy next to you who killed his oponent faster than you did etc etc. And it is maybe the same reason why there was different schools i mean "techniques style" quite different from each other depends on the region of japan and being kept as "secret" as possible to create and increase the "surprise factor" during those quick deadly 1vs1 among the fighting crowd (sorry for my english, i hope you guys will see the global idea).
I feel like sometimes they did go on for like 3 4 min even 7 cause they knew how to pivot the swords n all that tactical defense 😂😂
ngl that kinda sucks. imagine training your whole life just to lose and die in a quick boring duel. can't do parkour and cool sht
I think we were much more physically sound back then. Battles between the talented could’ve lasted up to 10 minutes, maybe
Watch it at x2 speed to look awesome
well its a demonstration what did you expect?
They are simulating movements
My men
Bro it legit looks like a stop motion video
It does
I can't move. Their spiritual pressure is enormous.
Who is this man!?His bankai is too powerful!
@@semutkecik168 It isn’t even his Bankai!!!!! It’s his Shikai!!!!!!
Ikr. Their chakra and ki is just coming out of the screen
BANKAI!!!!!!!!
@@MonkeyDLuffy-fu5ds He's not even released it yet, he's doing it with spiritual pressure and kido spells
Knowledge rules. I love seeing older generations showing what they know. Learn from them!
They make it look super easy. Amazing skills
the footwork is the hardest, and your head.
(i do Iaido too so ik that)
@@Aleksandr_Skrjabin footwork is actually pretty easy except for a select few kata
Notice how the taller man takes a high stance with his blade VS the smaller man lower stance! An example of fighting positions that enable adversaries to gain the ADVANTAGE!
Great observation but this was a kata so idk if that was intentional
They can never take their eyes off their opponent when facing each other, even when putting the Katana away. That’s why they pull it immediately and pull it up to the sword instead of the sword up to it.
When you watch anime and it's over in a whiz and a flash, this is what they are trying to show you. Most real duels in the age of swords were over in seconds. Crazy reaction times and years of muscle memory
Even today, real world gunfights are typically very quick. Only military maneuvers are drawn out, and that's usually ended in an instant with air or artillery support.
@@DaveSmith-cp5kj Exactly. Most one on one or small gun gunfights are over in one magazine each. I rarely see someone reload unless it's an officer in a situation or something like that
Back in the the days when samurai were at their peak I bet that you’d find limbs of human being here and there after a a quick dual, when you’re just taking a walk.
It was custom for Samurai to cut the heads off of there opponents so you are correct
Apparently, it wasn't uncommon for fingers to be found on the ground.
Samurais used to literally test out swords on peasants.
Fingers and ears were all over battlefields
Ugh that's gross
I could imagine an actual katana duel back in feudal times. Those unfortunate to lose must’ve felt a cold sensation on their forearms before realizing their chests have been sliced open. 😮
What is the history of the friendship between these two? &| could two practitioners, who are strangers, sync so tightly? What joy
Nice deflect and counter attack at 6:16
Damn it's easy to miss but it puts into perspective how one tiny mistake can lead to death
Not really a deflection. He's forcefully stealing the centerline by cutting directly into the opponent's cut, defend and attack in the same movement
It's not, the guy facing the camera swung out of range and doesn't return his guard up after his swing was thrown off.
Sad truth is that was a terrible move it's a trade off and well in a real duel a trade off is still death
Comments section are always fascinating. Better than the actual video. So many experts.
Thank you quarantine
Lol
Yes, when it comes to videos about martial arts, history or swordplay, there seem to be many experts who have warying opinions in the comment section.
Very timely video to find on my Recommend while chilling with some hot green tea. The quiet, the focus, the deliberation of people focusing on demonstration forms. It's pleasant.
What a beautiful display of self control and seriousness of the situation..it was like a play ch 1 the duel
These duels must have been brutal, quick and bloody...limbs must have been flying around when multiple people involved..
I hope people understand the focus and discipline instilled in applying the precision to sword arts. OSU!
You play osu! Bro?
... you are kidding right?
Always thought it was a lot faster paced
Its for training, not for simulation of combat. Its same principle like for gunslingers. Its better to be slower and precise than fast and then miss target. Timing wins against speed. And when you draw or wield with shinken (sharp sword), there is real danger to injure yourself or trainpartner (some schools for kumitachi use shinken on higher level).
@@23Disciple Yes. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast
These are kata, choreographed forms. It is not sparring or live training.
If it was an actual fight or conflict it would be faster
Well i guess it doesnt need to be fast since you’re not trying to kill someone
A wonderful display! Thanks for posting. 🌟🌟🌟🌟❤️👍
So this is how sekiro players train for deflecting enemy attacks...
*INTERESTING*
This old guy with glasses could be isshin
Meruem sama where TF were his lightning attacks then?
This would not necessarily be over so quickly. Samurai wore full body armor, and they studied how to both defend and attack each others armor the most efficiently. Plus the grappling aspect should be taken into account. It wasn't a cute little ballet type exposition, it was quick, hard, brutal and prolonged.
Yeah.. sure prolonged.
Samurais didn't use katana against armored targets
@@The.empire.enjoyer yeah samurais rarely if ever use katanas in a real battle, they're considered sidearms like handguns are to rifles. They more commonly use spears and bows, it's not until the peace period of japan when katanas starts getting used more but this is largely because big conflicts are rare and armor usage is almost nonexistent, most conflicts are close range and on foot too in this period
Most people don't know that samurais are as flexible as knights when it comes to weapon skills. They practically can use anything other than katanas and will absolutely use those other things instead of a katana. They're not dumb, they see the advantage that range gives and use spears+bows more so than conventional katanas, even in japan cavalry with spears and archers rule the battlefield there's no exception
Amazing. You can see their total concentration
I LOVE IT!!!
Idk why in the 2nd match left guy sheaths his katana satisfyingly because i love Laido so much
Virukishen / Oti-sama it’s iaido btw
The Sasamori family, the head of the Ono-ha Itto-ryu school of swordsmanship in Japan, is also a family of pastors for generations.
I love how this is like play fighting i did as a kid but 100x cooler
I can only imagine how nerve racking it would be whenever I mess up a kata it gets me all up in my head which then makes me mess up more lmao 😂
Aswad B they practice all their lives so they dont mess up, or atleast that they dont have to worry about messing up
Pitch Black yeah lol got mad respect I just had my first demo not too long ago they make it look too easy
KENSHI WINS - FLAWLESS VICTORY!
What the hell I was expecting them to go at it not just hit once then fall back 😂
If they did it would be bad 😅
These are drills, not real combat. They're to show a technique in a way even an unskilled person can understand. They have a defined, pre-planned winner or loser. Hence why it's called a "demonstration" as opposed to a "fight."
Well if it was for real, one hit would still be over. This isn’t MMA or anime where opponents can tank multiple hits. We’re dealing with swords here.
Its a fking Demonstration you piece of raw salmon
@@thatgopnik3515 . Like many people have said, in real life when it comes to swords. You can only make 1 effective strike before your life is at danger. The effectiveness of this form of kenjutsu is respected since it is the oldest form. This is how real samurai actually would've trained with the japanese sword
Thanks you for this video
The ascending cuts with the false edge remind me of some Fiore de Libre and Joachim Meyer stuff and forcefully moving the blade to a different position using a quick controlled strike feels extremely similar to longsword to me.
I knew I'd find a fellow HEMAist somewhere in this comments section
The foundation of every Itto ryu schools is the technique Kiri otoshi, basically the same idea as Liechtenauer's zornhau/shielhau against an oberhau or Fiore's first Largo play. Steal the centerline by cutting into the opponent's cut than stab him in the face, although they preffered using vertical cut rather than diagonal cut like Western Longsword
I watch it over and over to understand how they actually do that.
people here in the comments doesn't understand that this is demonstration, not a duel.
That was quite beautiful
This is real pleasant to watch.
In chin and Japan especially, the mix of tradition with modernity is so striking, you see the large drum in the background, while people on white clothed tables with $3000 cameras sit in front, it’s crazy how far we have come as humans
I practice archery when given the opportunity; it's fortunately regarded as _'sporting equipment'_ in the US and does not require weapon licensing.
The availability of hand-carved heartwood bowstaves, strung with animal tendon bowstring… such period-authentic warbows could easily cost hundreds, potentially thousands of dollars.
Hunting bows typically measure in draw strength from 30 to 60 pounds of force behind a loosened arrow (~13.5 to 27 kilograms); but warbows measured from 100 to 200 pounds of force (45 to 90 kilograms). It would not have been unexpected for an arrow to entirely exit out the back of your victim.
King Henry the Fifth of England survived an arrow shot directly into his face; with it piercing his cheek, entirely passing through his skull, and narrowly missing the vertebrae in his neck.
The two things on this earth that are most deserving of respect are the Earth itself and the History of our existence upon it.
beautiful

Yoshimitsu has entered the building.
Looks much more like art than combat
Because it is. They aren’t trying to kill each other, just showing the art and technique involved.
This feels like a lightsaber lesson and I must remember, just in case I need it, thank you Sensei
Beautiful 👍
There is something insect like about this. Like I’m watching Mantis’ fight on a nature show.
‘The ritual dancing of the mating prospects take their sides in cinematic fashion. No move goes unseen. They dance until one falls or simply gives up in search of an easier fight. The winner must still face the female in the final battle which it will inevitably die from. Yet the show must go on’
Thank you David Attenborough, we’ll take it from here.
6:19 This is a pretty amazing technique. Anyone know what it's called in Japanese?
I don't know what they call it in Itto Ryu but Shinkage Ryu has a similar one and they call it Itto Ryodan.
Assu Wuppon. Very old traditional technique.
In seriousness I don't think that was a technique. He yielded to the other guy. It wouldn't make sense to sacrifice the head for the legs.
@@DaveSmith-cp5kj no, it's not a yield, it's a deflection using the curve of the blade.
@@DaveSmith-cp5kj no, it's not a yield, it's a deflection using the curve of the blade.
Kiri otoshi. Basically you cut into the opponent's cut and taken his centerline by force for either a thrust with the point right at his face (very basic move) or just cut straight into his face (this one)
Why its faster, because samurai sword was not to designed to endured long battle between swords, so that's why samurai technique was so efficient and deadly
Even if the sword was designed to do that. It is in no way ideal. The only real reason a samurai would even use his sword in battle is because he is without his bow or is on foot. Meaning the samurai is in a life or death situation. the best thing to do is eliminate the opponent asap
Beautiful art of swordsman ship
Triste que nenhum dos dois pode mostrar seu verdadeiro potencial, melhor jeito de ver se você é bom é em uma luta de verdade
Ohh this is really helpful for writing fight scenes
Yes it is. I practice this martial art and let me tell you. In every japanese sword martial art other then kendo, battles are usually ended very quickly. So I hope this helps you make your writing much more accurate.
It is kind of hard to watch anime where they sword fight for several episodes, when in real life it would end in a couple of minutes but never more than an hour
@@joelstatosky1817 thank you! I always aim to write as realistic as possible so I'll use these kind of videos to like, choreograph the scenes ahaha x
@@joelstatosky1817 yup, to engage fight scene you need to draw the body carefully in a way...sometimes they exxagrate this, for sale of enriching the fight in terms of animation
But I would like to know how the body actually moved while swinging swords, it will help, even if you were to exxagrate a fight
And anime is fiction, with aliens ghouls and demon
So don't bother about the length
Not gonna help you much tho, since you're not understanding the context of the techniques and how they were used. They only explained things in details only if you're student of the style
In real life you probably would win/lose in 10 minutes the reason is because they are circling each other for 9 minutes and 58 seconds and the first to blow a strike wins you literally cant block it
It's only in real fights or movies that you nowadays can see a Katana fight that you expected
これ大好き
Is there are full-contact sparring (with protection gear) in Kenjutsu like in HEMA or do you find something like this only in Kendo?
by what i've seen, yes, theu use that kind og gear in some practices.
Yagyu shinkage ryu and others use a "fukuro-shinai" which is a different kind of shinai in a leather bag, largely removing the need to wear armor.
In Hokushin Itto Ryu there is Gekiken (with protection, and without), Is a practice coming from Bakumatsu period. For more see: www.hokushinittoryu.com and ruclips.net/video/SKh5ac4Fk80/видео.html
My shinkage Ryu instructor practiced hema as well and incorporated sparring with hockey and fencing gear (for mobilities sake) and padded bokken. it's pretty uncommon for practical sparring in most kenjutsu schools that dont use foam swords.
Yes, it's called "Gekiken".
All fun and games till one of them shouts bankai.
The ancient Fighter back then are some real warriors.
You gotta have balls of steel to fight with sword.
Now days a bullet will take you out without knowing.
Some samurai had to deal with that too after the Portuguese introduced flintlocks to Japan in the 16th century.
imagine if guns were not invented... bows and arrows, swords and spears remain weapons of war, then I can only imagine how many skilled fighters we would have... no need to worry for nuclear missiles
History fact : samurais love shooting people with guns more than using swords
No chakra , no bankai , no cursed energy , just art
やったことないからわかんないけど納刀の時めっちゃ緊張してそう
What if one of them with the real blade accidentally hits their opponent in the head
I think the blades have no edge so it would just really hurt.
There won't be any accident. That's why they drilled this movements with wooden or bamboo swords for a very long time before using steel for demonstration
It’d be incredible to see any of them actually try
Imagine going to sword fight and the first swipe is your whole neck 😂

😆😆😆 Pretty neat trick! Thanks! 😆😆😆 I enjoyed the iaito sequence more than the bokken one... especially when they passed each other by, and then quickly swerved as if to say "ah ha! I saw you coming you sneaky bastard!" 😂😂😂 The speed 2 made everything more fun and interesting, that's for sure! 😆😆😆👍
They use many wazas, which for uniniated looks like blocks. Its for training, not fight simulation.

usually a real fight last very short if the experience gap is just by 1 year
but a fight between 2 warriors will parry and parry each other until one of them has been cut by the now bloody blade.
I love reading the comments section of videos like this.
Anyone who's read a book or watched a documentary on the videos subject is an "expert".
I'll bet maybe 3 or 4 people in this videos comment section know what they're talking about and the rest....
Well, let's just say they're full of s--t.
they didnt even read a book they just look at anime
Yeah, taking a demonstration as if were real combat and not a display of the styles techniques.
I got scared for them when they pulled out the real swords 😭 itll take me a year of practicing before I'm that bold

Yep all my expectations just faded
