And this was the day the for honor meta changed forever

People in the comments complaining and insulting the match due to not knowing how it's scored instead of taking 2 seconds to search it.

Naginata is the main weapon of the monk soldiers, and during the Warring States period, Japanese Buddhist temples had territories and were armed.  Influential temples have vast territories and many followers, and have begun to have the same power as the landlord.  Rebellion was caused in various places using believers all over Japan.  Therefore, Nobunaga Oda slaughtered the temple and the monk soldiers.  In addition, Naginata became a necessary skill for women who care for the landlord's wife and daughter, and became a means of self-defense.

who else is nobushi here

it looks like they hate each others guts🤣

Watching this at x0.25 speed is both enlightening and surreal, especially with the sound still on.

Violent fighting breaks out, mid-marshmallow roasting competition - Colourised, circa 1897.

Somebody understanding the rules well please explain the staring moment after a contact when 2 competitors just hold their weapon and staring at each other.

SONATA NI SHI WO

nobushi brought me here

日本の武道を絶やさず継承してくれて有難う御座います。

Is it me or the girl with black gloves started winning after the second blow (it seemed like they were talking at the beggining

"Oshite mairu" xD

I really enjoyed watching this. Thank you for posting.

So to sum this up, you can have the naginata blade on your neck all you want, but if you get hit on a pinky its over?

why do I enjoy this so much?

Thanks, KendoWorld.
