These videos make me a sad sexual harassment panda. . . .

I've the Kondo clip in my hard drive since a lot ago. Watching the hair grab - throat slicing FTW at 0:35 makes me happy.

Its just a demonstration of Daito Ryu kata. Beginning level kata from the looks of it. I don't see a problem. Its just a demo, its not being passed off as anything more. Because you n00b nutrider that doesn't believe in "attack the wrist" doesn't mean there is no merit to the techniques. You never have your wrist grabbed during randori?

Virus, everyone of these threads makes you look more like a moron. And Sadly I am not the only one that thinks so.

Edit: I am referring to the second video. If the first video was real Daito Ryu (doubt it) it was done very poorly.

Virus I have 2 suggestions. If you continue this train of thread, make it more critical then attacking. "I found a Daito Ryu clip, what is this?" or just not post of the thread. You used to be a respectable poster, please don't go the way of kickcatcher, who at this point is just laughable.

I didn't think DRAJJ was actually a recognized koryu.

How does one become a recognized Koryu? Does it have to be X years old?

Virus is just having natural Ninja withdrawl's where he's angry about his larping years and is on a mission to find other larping styles to vent his rage on.

I don't blame him one bit
