    First red flag: video clip of the guy surrounded by hot young chix in Spandex, arching their backs so their chests present themselves and their butts look enticingly available, like a female chimp in estrus (the way comic book super heroines are drawn, come to think of it).

    Second red flag: The lack of martial focus, and his "dead" hands. His mind is elsewhere even when he is demonstrating for the camera.

    Seriously, watching that dude's video reminded me of the demos the local krotty schools do at the mall. There's difference between practicing "slow and relaxed" to avoid injury, and being sloppy with your intent and way you carry your body.

    Third red flag: And the sword handling was... clumsy. I'm a Big Klutz but even I learned how to handle a sword more facilely than that. He grips the tsuka (hilt) like a hammer.

    Won't bother with other red flags (the first one was enuff, IMO).

    Sorry, I don't care what his purple-haired teacher does for a living or what rank he was awarded. He acts on the level of game-role playing, if the video and stills are any indication.
    LMAO @ pointing out "red flags" in this totally awesome video about this definitely SUPER real ninja!

      Lol! Almost anything could be a "real weapon" or at least deadly dangerous if you use it violently. Dan Aykroyd showed us that.



      I think the plural for "staff" is "staves," unless the guy's "biographer" was talking about employees.

        Geez, the MAP posters defending Hatsumi's dan bonanza are really grasping at straws. Why does he have so many uberdans? Pick one:
        -he's a sneaky ninja and doing so is just more sneaky ninja stuff.

        -he's appeasing folks by giving them rankings, like a mom buying a ninja Halloween costume for an annoying brat.

        -he's cultivating drones for financial reasons so he can continue to train an elite inner circle in the real shit.

        -he's doing it to troll other styles where ranks are hard to get.


        I thought this post was on point:

        Hatsumi can do no wrong even when his martial arts association is a random crap shoot of quality that you need years of experience to navigate and even then won't even access without moving to Japan (and not even then it seems).

          Yes, that's what the W stands for after all.

          I am bathing in ninja orgy glory. 15th dan tabloid ninjas, "anonymous" ninjas living in Japan (or are they??), technical ninjas, ninja apologists, ninja haters, ninja humorists. Almost 1,000 posts in 5 days.

          I haven't geeked out like this over ninjas since I bought my first issue of Ninja Magazine.

            The title was a little misleading for me. Here I was hoping our extinction efforts were working and we were down to only 50 left.

              This is not a fraud investigation. Just someone that takes his LaRPing very seriously.

              Merging with the YMAS thread

                I had a ninja character once ..very evil.
                He got his soul imprisoned by the oriental gods for being obstinate.
                Actually, the Dungeon Master just didn't like my character, and that was his way of getting rid of him instead of blatantly killing him off.
                He was a fun character to play. He survived a lot of shit on his own..even got chased by a T-Rex when he was down in the Almeido Jungle. Had to run and scale down a cliff wall to get away.

                  Hatsumi's sword swings straight down, whacking eejits left and right. If you manage to avoid it, you can teach his art. The material of your teachings is another matter though aka "material? WHAT MATERIAL?".

                          Just got through browsing that thread over there... That Please Reality guy, if he's not a troll I've never seen someone so drunk on kool aid.

                            That's why I'll probably never gonna join MAP. Making claims but not providing proof for the sake of anonymity yet asserting some authority by claiming (yet again) connection to authority(without verification) doesn't sit well with me.

                                "Garth" is amazing.

                                "Here's a video of real seldom defence, so you can see how that couldn't work in sports."

                                "That video is fake as shit, dumbass. You're stupid, even by BBT standards."

                                "How do you know that's fake?"

                                "Because it's hilariously, obviously fake. You have magic powers to detect the intent to attack, but you can't see through this dinner theater level pouncing about?"
