I read a lot of negative comments about combat sports in terms of their effectiveness in street fighting. Well, I will not engage in such a discussion, as I am not an expert in all these types of violence. But when I watch these combat sports shows, I greatly enjoy the agility of movement and the beautiful interaction between strength, speed, and balance. An amazing mixture of physics, philosophy and wisdom. Isn't this enough to enjoy what we see, or must we engage in street fighting in order to know the value of things?
Special forces guy was saying combat sports are just as ineffective as Kata in real combat since real combat also has biting, eye gouging, kicking the balls, etc. to kill with all available means without any restrictions.
@yootoobvyooer I am in no way special forces, but that's an insanely stupid take. You're effectively saying a professional mma fighter would have the same odds against the average joe without their training. Combat sports like boxing, muay thai, jujutsu, wrestling, kickboxing, lethwei, etc, may not train you to specifically block an eye gouge, but they teach you how to defend yourself against many other attacks, and someone who can box well is much less likely to get their eyes taken out, training head movement, footwork, angle and level changes for hours upon hours every week will lessen the chances of you being hit accurately. the same goes for any other art that focuses specifically on combative ability, as well as other arts like like karate, which focus both on art and Combat, although they are usually inherently less effective
Please, camera and edition crew... stop it with the top half takes and closeups. We want to see the whole body movement not the face :/ It is a full body expression, not only the arms...
As a non practitioner of this discipline, I found it hard to choose between these two ladies. I just absorbed all the power and grace of their movements. They both are winners in my untrained eyes.
Very beautiful..thanks for post it..only Just a reflection... I observe that the "kiai" has become... just another "part of the show", simply... and I think that the kiai should be an explosion of energy... not a scream "to scare "... there is a martial art that perfects "kiai-jutsu"... well it was just a note... thank you.
Combat sports effectiveness in street fights is actually pretty good its just people who learn martial arts are more disciplined and know when and where they have to use them or hold back.
Je ne comprends pas pourquoi les athlètes crient si hystériques les noms des katas qu’ils vont exécuter, qui sans hystérie n’est pas possible? Je pense qu’en arts martiaux, il n’y a pas de place pour l’hystérie. Et vous pensez quoi?
When I see a Chantayara Kushanku, it's hard to not compare with Rika Usami's which is perfect, whereas Saeko Azuma's looks great, but FOR ME she puts to much strength and intensity. Maho Ono's kata is way more balanced in term intensity, sharpness, smoothness. That's why i'd choose Ono for the win.
Tai Chi is more like slow Kung Fu than slow Karate. But at the highest levels of the martial arts, they are all teaching a lot of the same moves and techniques. Lower level Karate is strikes, but at higher levels, has the same locks, holds, and momentum redirection as Aikido and Jiu Jitsu (Japanese not Brazilian where focus is on grappling).
@@ViolentCircus, Chantayara Kushanku, also Shito-Ryu, named for Chatan Yara, lived 1668-1756, one of the first to teach Chinese martial arts in Okinawa, which eventually became karate. Shito-Ryu is considered one of the four main foundational styles alongside Wado-Ryu, Shito-Ryu, and Goju-Ryu. It stands out for more extensive use of cat stance.
Wushu taolu / forms are way harder, I don't get why katas' following is so much bigger. And Karate's based on Kung Fu. This is coming from a big Karate fan and practitioner. I tried wushu and it's basically gymnastic, you have to train since young age or you have no chance to do even 50% of it. With kata I feel it is possible to do 80-90% of what these athletes can do even if you start at age 30.
You're a karate fan and practitioner and you think that a 30 year old starting in Karate can do 90% of what these women can do? I taught children and adults for years and I can tell you that no adult, 30 years old with no prior martial arts training can ever attain the level of performance that these women are at. These women have been training in Karate since they were children and hit their stride in competition when they are in their 20s. What McDojo do you train at? Wushu is a sport invented by the Chinese government in the 70s to revive Chinese martial arts. It is primarily a gymnastic, acrobatics based sport with some Gung Fu elements tossed in. Nothing that resembles actual existing traditional Gung Fu. Karate kata is mostly all derived from original Southern Chinese Gung Fu forms taught to Okinawans in the late 1800s in Fuzhou, China, and or Chinese who came to Okinawa and taught Gung Fu, most related to White Crane Boxing. The Okinawans stripped down the original Gung Fu forms to be as simple, direct and effective as possible. Kata is similar to shadow boxing, practicing techniques while moving. Competition kata is purposefully and dramatically slowed down to demonstrate power, speed, directional changing, jumping and switching stances, breathing, exact form and execution of many different techniques, blocks, strikes, punches and kicks.
maho ono... theres shadows of mantis in some of her moves... there was step sequence almost 3step arrow, then the extended spear hand restrike, ofc there is logic from application with all styles leading to many similarities. without a doubt ono discipline has more inyo on top of her excellent presentation.
We could do without the verbal commentary while the Katas are going on. It may be amusing for you behind the microphone, but not for us viewers, thanks.
Is Olympic kata only karate? They all look the same style. When I was a kid and competed, we would go to tournaments where you would have a dozen different martial arts forms competing.
I could do without the commentator going on about what seemed like nothing of any significance. It was almost like he was filling the space, but not saying anything.
I can appreciate the dedication- as far as excitement it’s pretty dull. Imagine years of dedication for just that….??! Seriously? Where are the fancy kicks?
I don’t understand why athletes so hysterically shout the names of the katas that they will perform, which without hysterics is not possible? I think in martial arts, there’s no place for hysteria. And what do you think?

exactly
How about when a band plays live and the cameraman remains on a close-up of the singer's face for the entire song?
Difficult to copy the Katas.

Have not seen any woman Karateka perform a kata better than Rika Usami yet!
Such fast switching movements still body balance is intact...👏👏👏👏
So amazing! Intense perfection!
I just recalled Rika usami 🌺
Shes the absolute best in kata
Thank you , magnificent!

You women are incredibly talented and I have immense respect for y’all. I really enjoyed watching you. Remarkable job ladies! 🥋
I Love JPN Karate.
Браво' ПОЗДРАВЛЕНИЯ ...YES ! , ブラボー」おめでとうございます...はい。 長い間見ていない ブルガリアからこんにちは。
All my favorit Athlete
I thought ms Saeko Azuma JPN had better form concentration though 🤔 ....
Both are very powerful kata practitioners.
awesome,I do prefer the older slow kata, as I say still Awesome
Both were superbly done
Those girls have some serious power! Wow! ❤
It feels like chickens are flapping around.
When she says take the kids to school, do the laundry and clean the house before dinner... that's what you do.
Congratulations sensei 🥋💐🤝

How do you know who wins?
In a few hundred years, these routines would be slowed down and become tai-chi like exercises practiced by many
Noooo😂😂😂

Waouh trop cool elles sont belles et fortes en plus bravo Japon j'ai aimé après cette séquence...

Okay cool? Go watch that then
could someone explain how this is scored? is it subjective?
google it
I don't know what the hell those judges were looking at, the red belt smoked that blue belt moves were faster sharper and more powerful
maho ono... theres shadows of mantis in some of her moves... there was step sequence almost 3step arrow, then the extended spear hand restrike, ofc there is logic from application with all styles leading to many similarities. without a doubt ono discipline has more inyo on top of her excellent presentation.
Ok now fight!
Tenho 54, dois meses de Karatê , só faço o primeiro Kata. Posso ir em 2028.
Why does it say 5 months ago?
Why do they look so similar to each other? Are they twin sisters?😅
Female kata is the best ❤
This is shotokan? What style is this ? I no reconoce the katas
Wow😮
LE karaté devrait être aux Jeux olympiques. Il y a de plus en plus de sports d'origine États-Uniens, est-ce pour obtenir plus de médailles d'Or????
I like to see them fight not doing nonsense moves.
please commentator try to stay in silence when they perform. pleaaaaaaaaaaase!
❤
Why didn't they go super saiyan?
I don't like shito ryu I like shoto kan ryu I had pracriced all My life and now I,m working in many katas of shoto kan and kumite
that's a personal preference
Shitoryu katas better then all
Pos no sabes lo que es bueno.
@@NatsuDragneel-cd5jiIt's better at all.
🎉write NAMES OF KATA🎉
Pir pir baş. Pîrozbahî.
This which style
Locking the arm straight at the elbow on the strikes is bad for the elbow.
We could do without the verbal commentary while the Katas are going on. It may be amusing for you behind the microphone, but not for us viewers, thanks.
I'd really appreciate it if the commentator could withhold his comments to before and after the kata. He's really distracting...
is this in the Olympics because Anime is world popular?
That's supposed to be a Kiai, not the sound of someone stepping on your foot!
Adda rika usami
Should they have to mandatorily shout like this?
Why?
Is it just me or they look like twins?
They have very similar features.
💖🇯🇵💖
Amateur camera person. I went with blue because red style seems a common pick. I rarely see blue style...
Wow, the air guitar version of combative sports. This sport will give wrestling, boxing, judo, and taekwondo a run for its money for sure.
Is Olympic kata only karate? They all look the same style. When I was a kid and competed, we would go to tournaments where you would have a dozen different martial arts forms competing.
🙂🙂
HIKARO ONO is the absalute queen of PAPUREN and does not get the respect she deserves......
So they don't fight.

Why all this kata female have a good face..🤔
NOT the olympics
No. Punch dancing. See Hot Rod.
I can appreciate the dedication- as far as excitement it’s pretty dull. Imagine years of dedication for just that….??! Seriously? Where are the fancy kicks?
These long ass katas bruh shits unreal 💀💀💀
Is this a joke? They both look tough, but can they fight? I doubt it.

I don’t understand why athletes so hysterically shout the names of the katas that they will perform, which without hysterics is not possible? I think in martial arts, there’s no place for hysteria. And what do you think?
I think you have no idea what you are on about, yet still feel compelled to be loud and noisy about it
Is she dangerous?
The woman looks beautiful but shout like crazy woman. I have learn Kyokushin karate since teenager and never seen such behavior.
Don't talk while they are performing ffs!
Please stop talking!!!
