Wrong. 8th dans are required to know Koshiki no kata, btw. It is part of the Kodokan curriculum, and it was not loaned to the Kodokan by Kano. Kano incorporated this kata into the Kodokan curriculum as a means to preserve the techniques from Kito Ryu that he felt were compatible to Judo.

Also, according to wiki
Some striking demonstrations of it from the 1950s can be seen in the film "Classic Judo Kata," by Hal Sharp. If the description of the kata in that film is correct, it would be the only judo kata that involves attacking the cervical spine---certainly no other judo kata includes that technique.Last edited by Teh El Macho; 8/25/2007 8:24pm at .

The street argument is retarded. BJJ is so much overkill for the street that its ridiculous. Unless you're the idiot that picks a fight with the high school wrestling team, barring knife or gun play, the opponent shouldn't make it past double leg + ground and pound - Osiris -

The yt history has lots of people questioning the autenticity of this. Props to them for trying to try it with armor, but notice the differences between that clip and the previous one done in a Judo setting, as a Judo kata examination.

Katas are learning/training tools. I find Nage no kata very useful, the rest not so much, and generally the opinions vary. There are people, especially from Europe, that went on to win Worlds without bothering much with kata, and there are World and All Japan champions that consider kata crucial part of Judo.

Ask this question on Judoforum.com, there's a couple of old time senseis there that will explain this better than I can.
