@@drakemallard1486 any damage done after?

1. Hold the katana with your right hand on top, and keep about two fingers worth of distance between your left hand (that is on bottom). 2. Bring your right foot forward, bend your knees, and stretch out your arm and wrists in front of you (the tip of the katana at about your chest height) 3. Raise your hands as high as possible above the top of your head. 4. Shift your katana to the right by bringing your left hand above your right ear, and slightly turn the sharp edge outwards 5. Swing your katana down to your left waist, as you draw a straight line from above your head. When you swing, imagine you are throwing a fishing line, or an apple that’s stuck to the tip of your sword as far as possible. Relax your shoulders and arms, and from a high position draw a big circle with the tip of your katana. Then let’s try cutting! However, each ryuha style will have different methods, so what I explained is not an absolute answer.

Isn’t the left foot forward typically?

isnt it funny how the shogun 2 soundtrack is used in almost everything historical japanese related? that soundtrack is so good.

@johnevergreen8019

I’m pretty sure at least some of the soundtrack is influenced by a lot of traditional music from Japan so it fits perfectly

Can we talk about how cool that was. He's a blessing

Please dont. Those are made out of pure plastic and will just stay in the sea for thousands of years not decomposing. Permanently ruining the environment just to practice sword cutting on is not the way.

Your gaze, menacing aura, and your intimidating posture makes you a true modern-day samurai. You have my respect

Since you posted this, i have a suggestion: how about making a few episodes showing how you would practice tameshigiri using battojutsu. I think it would be interesting to watch :)

There's something about the first few demonstration slashes that exude a peaceful aura for some reason.

Sweet, now my training arc begins

I like how he's talking like everyone has a katana at home

“Imagine an Apple is stuck on the very end of the sword” Me: *Begins playing Ringo bushi*

From all the training vids I've seen on using samurai swords, i just know that this looks easy but irl it would take a whole lot of skills

Pls do a video on how to wear the hakama and fold it 🙏 I couldnt find one in your channel, maybe i didnt search enough

Very nice description thank you I am blind in both my eyes total and was able to visualize what you are teaching thank you! :-)

Thanks shogo

Fishing line analogy. Brilliant. Its like understanding physics and surfing on it with a large knife.

You looks just like soul reaper from bleach , it's so cool , nice man

Next episode: how to fight Jetstream Sam in real life

The last sentence said saved your honor in my eyes ;D I've been practicing some a little different way of cutting

Thank you. Now my imaginary foes won't stand a chance!

every criminal : "ahh so thats how you slice"

The ‘straight motion’ was actually quite straight. Impressive.

I was under the impression you should "pull" the sword inward towards you (for angular momentum? ) Is this valid?

@OllamhDrab

That's more prominent for closer-in strikes than demonstrated here. Remember it's not swinging like a bat, in any case.

@robertspeedwagon982

By doing this you would lose range, precision and possibly miss the mat. However I've only tried Battodo, so I'm not sure if it works for every Budo/Jutsu related to tameshigiri

Swinging like you're casting a fishing line is the best advice I've ever heard. When we practice with a sword and we try to explain it to newbies, I always have such a hard time describing it. I don't know why I never thought of this. Shogo you are a miracle.

Thank you Sensei for this instruction. The five steps shall be practiced using each of the five possessions.

this man comforts me and also scares me with his strength

Excellent advice!

Thanks shogo, very helpful.

I’m so curious to se you use a European straight sword. I mostly want to know your opinion on the differences between then and Katana

Finally. We get to see the master in action

Really useful, i use this technique everyday

I have a family katana and its really old ,and its hard to open do you know how to fix this problem

i think keep about three fingers (4-5cm) worth of distance between your left hand is better than two fingers, cause it will make your flash more powerful and easy to control.

I'd say, if anyone teaches you, do it their way, then maybe try another way. I learned a little differently, too, but I wouldn't go to SHogo's school to tell them that, I'd learn what they got. :)

This was fantastic

man your moves are smooth as ever

This channel is really cool

That second one was Lowkey clean AF tho

Thanks for the tutorial, my grandpa didnt stand a chance

The first few steps look like some people playing volleyball

that was beautiful

I've been fishing before, I shall practice with my father's Katana. Thanks for sharing

Nice!

So cool 🙏

Learned a single swing in 1 minute So cool

amazing

this got Me the vibe of my karate teacher

The precision

Cool!

Step 1 find a stranger standing around on the street, step 2 test your blade. Step 3 satisfaction.

My face hurt when you swished the katana 😆

Your such a badass bro

Awesome

He turned killer mode in this vid... thay face 💀

I like to imagine that katanas are just really big bananas

Bro I remember doin that in Wii Sports Resort. I've always wanted to do it but I'm a lazy bum 😂

I did that before and it was fun.

Love Shogo...

Bro looks cold than usual

The fishing line tip is the same one I got from my Iado teacher.

This is a great explanation...... when the leftie edition coming out?

I can finally be a samurai

I love how these are the same sounds as in Wii Sports Resorts Cutting party

Would love to see a cat while drawing from the saya 👏

The stand is very important too.

and what i would do with a sword is swing it around like a maniac thinking i look as cool as an anime character who can slice planets with a butter knife

I legit read this as tomagotchi

7 Breath in deep 7 shout"sun breathing 4th form, Onigashima ''

One quick question, how old are you? You have an amazing knowledge, love your vlogs

If zombie apocalypse ever happen, i will come to him

Bro's looking into my soul💀

Now i just want to see left handed styles. Basically the same techniques, but flipped

Now all I need is a Katana

Somehow i missread the subtitle as "man cutting with katana".

Home defense “keeyaw!”

“A useful tutorial!” -Quiet kid

Next time do the senpokku tutorial

This....looks like an execution tutorial.. Until I found out that this was actually how people were executed

I feel bad for anyone who tries to break into this guy's house

Were do you think is going to be a place for a katana

Those eyes are sharp

The Wii Sports resort sounds

I wish you could watch people with katana just fight it out with samurai body armour. Like gladiators 😂

Wow

説明ありがとうございました

It looked so smooth that I thought he broke my phone but it’s just a my phone got has crack screen exactly where he swing the kitana

Where can I purchase the tatami mat ? Where is best online to purchase Tameshigri Thanks great video

You look like my 4th grade classmate

Also be sure to engage your back and torso

Left handlers be like💀💀💀

Step one, acquire beautiful sword.

Do a video about your opinion on ghost of Tsushima

'just parry 5 broo'

When I finally get to Kyoto, maybe you can help me find my katana? I'd be so happy!

I'll go left side, just to be different. 🤙

oh so a slice motion? makes sense
