Japanese answer -Did NINJA & SAMURAI exist really?- _by Clown_Jack

When the foreign site is patrolled, I often see those who are yearning to the Ninja or the Samurai.
The other side, Ninja and Samurai are criticized as being often existence of only a fantasy. How is truth?

If it reveals, Japanese people does not know truth. Since Japanese people hurried Westernization since Meiji Era, the tradition of its own country was thrown away. I thought this trend is fuck, and have studied various knowledge.

I think that it is not necessarily a lie. Surely, many Ninjutsu and Kenjutsu in fiction was borne by the influence of SF. Actually., I have the qualification of "two-stage 二段" of kendo. However, I can't act like Zatoichi. Kendo is the sport created since the modern period. Moreover, the sham using the excessive image to the samurai also exists. Many of they are dogmatist.
But, you don't need to be disappointed. It is certain that the Ninja and Samurai had special ability.
And there are people who inherit their technology.
Let's watch.

[居合剣術kenjyutu iai]
Long version.
[Kuroda Tetsuzan 黒田鉄山Kenjutsu Bujutsū]

He is Kuroda Tetsuzan. Real Sword-Master.
By using ancient martial art method, he got this speed.It is said that ancient martial art is how to apply wight to speed. It is said that ancient martial art is  how to increase speed by adding one's own weight. Their motion can hardly be predicted. I think that hakama is the clothes for not making others predict a motion.





[三方斬り-甲野善紀-]
Kouno Yoshinori. -The three direction cutting-
Kouno is investigating the motion in an ancient martial art. He says, "It does not surge, accumulate and twist."

[居想会・居合い・玉光・Iaido]
Isoukai iai "laido"

Maniwa nenryu


[タイ捨流剣術(Taisha ryu Kenjutsu)]

As the martial art in the world has a common method, the fencing also has a common method.
[Zwerchhau, absetzen, nachreissen - longsword techniques training]



[示現流兵法-初度篇-]
Jigenryu

This man is not crazy.
This is the vocalization method called Enkyou 猿叫"monkey's cry". This fencing is "Jigenryu 示現流" famous for Kyushu .

[日本の剣術・術技詳解「薬丸自顕流剣術」]
Yakumaru Jigenryu


I am practicing this "Yakumaru Jigenryu 薬丸自顕流".
This fencing is strange, because the sword style is only two. This fencing is specialized in the purpose of killing war and a person, rather than the purpose of protecting oneself.
The same thought as this fencing exists also in the West.
They were called "Landsknecht".
Their swords and the swords of this fencing are alike. How to hold is also the same.
Zweihänder


野太刀 Nodachi

These coincidences are the evidence which has a method and history in the fencing. Moreover Ninja was also using such method.

Probably, now, the Ninja and Samurai whom people in the world imagine is the influence from the Japanese period drama mostly. A period drama and comics of Japan was developed by Koudan 講談 and Kabuki 歌舞伎. [Koudan is Japanese story-telling]. However, they existed and had deep wisdom. This wisdom was lost. How to study has only self-education.

I was not able to make reference mostly about a ninja this time, because it is deficient in data.
Probably the ninja's image has strong influence of the writer "Yamada Fuutarou 山田風太郎". Since it has what should be observed very much also when considering anime and manga, I would like to explain his novel in the near future.
