/jp/ - Otaku Culture

...You mean like aikido?

Reported for not otaku culture.

>>4450244
no, more like Shooto and DREAM.

>>4450251
I can tell you some things about aikido.

Arguably the most powerful martial arts in Japan.

An Aikido practitioner is practically invincible, no one of any martial arts background can ever land a punch or kick on one.

Using the power of the attacker, the Aikido practitioner uses absolutely no energy to knock them down.

A fearsome martial arts it is.

>>4450250
one can have an otaku-like interest in fighting...

>>4450270
Bitches don't know 'bout mah karate.

>>4450283
My Aikido dojo is across from a Karate dojo. We usually get alot of rude remarks from them, such as Aikido being for weaklings.

Well, one of them challenged me, he was a white male in his 20's. I accepted of course, I never back down from a challenge.

He had really good form, but his Karate was no match for my Aikido. He delivered a great kick but it was nothing for me, I easily grabbed it and knocked him down with a kick. This went on for about 10 minutes until he got too tired.

He got frustrated and left, he was about to cross the street but I stopped him from getting hit by a speeding cyclist. He didn't say thanks but it still felt good to save someone.

>>4450272
There are no doubt fight otaku the same way as there are wrestling otaku and military otaku.
Otaku is as otaku does, etc.

>>4450286
You are awesome dude

>>4450283
>>4450286
how lulzy

Do they have fight club? Do they fight club in real life? fight club?

>>4450310
>>4450311
Wow, there are people that don't know about aikido yet.

Explains why the posting rate has skyrocketed as of late.

Judo is interesting

>>4450311
I have defeated countless opponents using Aikido, and they always ask me, Why are you so strong?

I answer, I'm not strong, you are.

Aikido uses the strength of the attacker back at them but 10 times stronger(estimate). Using Aikido and I can probably kill a charging Rhino using it's force right back at it, of course, I'm not going to try it, way to dangerous for any sane person.

I recommend practicing Aikido for every /jp/edo, as you are all physically weak, and Aikido is specialized for the weak to defend against the strong.

A 50 year old man with cerebral palsy doing Aikido, very touch

The fighting scene in Japan is one of the main reasons I want to live there, at least for a little while. Japanese fighters have crazy heart, and the promotions there are a little screwy, but PRIDE was an amazing spectacle when it was around.

>>4450316
Strangely it seems like soulless salarymen would have a lot of pent-up aggression they'd expression in such a manner.

>>4450333
Aikido masters are indeed great.
Like the Kiai masters.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEDaCIDvj6I

>>4450316

Yes. The power of aikido compels them.

Okay, this troll with his aikido is an idiot. Only a few legit teachers and schools are good. You know why? Because they actually teach the concept of sparring and live practice. Gozo Shioda and Kenji Tomiki are badass aikido teachers. Tomiki learned under Jigoro Kano and Morihei Ueshiba.

I train in judo and sambo. 99.9% of aikido-ka are going to be helpless against anyone that's trained in a half-decent judo or sambo school. Those wristlocks and aiki won't work against a leglock or a choke.

>>4450415
You're stupid, and know nothing about aikido.

>>4450420
I've sparred with a few aikido-ka while I was living in Japan for 2 years. They were all a joke except for the guys from Shioda and Tomiki's schools. They actually had some idea of utilizing ukemi and kansetsu-waza.

>>4450332
ORLY? I'd like to see an aikido guy against a Lumpini or Rajadamnern ranked Thai boxer.

>>4450437

They were holding back to protect you, obviously.

>>4450420
I have 4 years of xp in aikido, he's definitely right. the art was softened to begin with, if the user is also a pussy who doesn't practice right he'll be curb stomped. 9 out of 10 aikido people are exactly that, so...

>>4450449
Dude, don't even go there with the "too deadly" bullshit. Judo far excels in teaching combative approach as well as physical fitness and mental strength than aikido.

>>4450437
>>4450448
>my face when you thought Aikido wasn't the greatest of all martial arts.

>Akido

>>4450437
I believe you shouldn't underestimate Aikido. Now I know you may be thinking, "Why take a weakling martial art like Aikido seriously when I am learning Judo?" I can see why you would think that, how can a peaceful martial arts like Aikido beat a powerful one like Judo?

Well, I have a story to share with you.

Years ago, I was a Judoka, I thought I was the toughest kid in high school, I would pick fights, and kick ass. I was full of hate, until I picked a fight with the wrong dude. He was a Japanese exchange student, I still remember his name, Noboru Takeda.

I picked on him because of his hilarious and thick Japanese accent. I told him I was going to beat him so hard, he would go back to China(Yeah, I was a little racist prick.), he never said anything back, made me wanted to kick his ass even harder.

Well, here comes the fight. I threw men and do strikes, he dodged them like I was a mere white belt. I was tiring out and he knew, I saw the smirk on his face that made me raged hard. I put all my strength in one amazing move, and he grabbed past it to my wrist and threw me over. My back smacked on the hard cement ground, and I was knocked out for who knows how long.

When I woke up I was in the school infirmary, I asked the nurse who brought me here, and you guessed it, Noboru Takeda. The next day, he wasn't at school, he was back in Japan, and I never got to thank him, for saving my life and showing me the light. I soon learned that he was an Aikidoka and have been practicing Aikido ever since to show my thanks to him.

I know several of you don't believe in the power of Aikido. I can see why you believe that, how can a peaceful martial arts like Aikido beat a powerful one like Karate.

I put all my strength in one amazing punch, and he grabbed it and threw me over. My back smacked on the hard cement ground, and I was knocked out for who knows how long.

Cool copypastas Suigin.

>>4450474
It all makes sense now.

>>4450468
>Judoka
>hates asians

What?

>>4450474
And that's why it is the official martial art of /jp/.

>>4450468
yes, there are a few badasses out there. but for the average user, whoever has more gross motor movement and practice wins. aikido is deficient in both.

>>4450460

If anyone ever truly unleashed the power of akido...

Well... There would be no one left.

>>4450491
I was trying to be hardcore...I was like 14 and in a rebellious stage.
Noburu Takeda showed me the light though.

>>4450458
It didn't help that Morihei Ueshiba had no business in teaching a modified version of Daito Ryu Aikijutsu without permission and sanction from Sokaku Takeda. Daito Ryu Aikijutsu is a REAL fighting art. Takeda himself was a bit of a bastard and LIKED hurting people with his family's fighting style when he was a young man.

Hello, 50% of this thread, welcome to /jp/.

anyone following DREAM or Sengoku?

>>4450526
Yeah, I am. I was REALLY disappointed with Satoshi Ishii's debut.

Does anyone like K-1?

>>4450541
hes my favorite character in higurashi

ITT: Copypasta tripfag and Aikido

>>4450526
>>4450541
yes and yes.

Great stuff.

So, /sp/,

How does it feel to know that moot thinks even less of you than he does us?

How does it feel to be considered worse than us "directionless pedophiles"?

>imo
Please don't abbreviate your words, this isn't some newspeak bullshit. Stop the commies.

>>4450562
>implying moot gives a shit about /sp/

>>4450531
yeah ishii really disapointed me, he should be fighting at 205

i'm also looking forward to joachim hansen beating up that br fernandes

also dj taiki

aikido is weak and can't defeat a real martial art

>>4450541
No, because no clinching is bullshit. I watch Japanese kickboxing venues like All Japan Kickboxing Federation and Shin Nihon Kickboxing Assocation. K-1 is just entertainment, it's not a real sport venue. It used to be back in the 90's, but now it's just a place to showcase freak matches. K-1 MAX is still good I admit.

>>4450608

how do you feel about Shootboxing

>>4450232
my belts

The fatal flaw of the guard position.

>>4450637
I like it. It's Muay Thai with throws and standing submissions. How can that go wrong? Plus the shootboxing pants are badass. My favorite fighter is Hiroki Shishido.

>>4450643
...Yes?

>>4450232
Gomi needs to head to the UFC. I wish he could have a rematch with BJ. He might actually do better this time.

>>4450648

Muay Thai has throws from the clinch. I see a lot of hip tosses.

>>4450663
Dude, he's in the UFC

He's fighting Kenny Florian at the end of March. And dear god, I hope he wins.

>>4450667
They're not exactly throws. It's kinda of a gray area when you sweep a guy with a leg kick. Hip throws, however, are not allowed in Lumpini and Rajadamnern. They had those specifically because Japanese kickboxers in the 60's and 70's did that against Thai fighters and they didn't like that. Some older styles of Muay Thai which retained the all-round fighting aspects of Muay Boran specialize in throws. That's why Pajunsuk did well against Sanda fighters in a Muay Thai vs Sanda match a couple of years ago.

>>4450683
Oh, yeah I forgot. I was trying to get tickets to that show in Newark, but they were all sold out by the time I scrapped up enough money.

I'm actually somewhat surprised that /jp/ knows about MMA and Kickboxing/Muay Thai in Japan. I usually don't go to this board because it usually has loli threads and other stuff that I don't care for.

>>4450695
ah, i see. thanks for clearing that up.

>>4450648

Umeno the next big thing imo, i heard rumours of him fighting on the next K-1 MAX Japan card

but those are just rumors ;_;

>>4450725

I'm not quite sure why, but it's three guys from /sp/. It's even more bizarre because they have a thread over in /sp/ about this thread.

>>4450725
it's because most of /jp/ are Aikido Masters and don't bother with lesser martial arts

>>4450727
Umeno impressed the hell out of me in his last fight. But I REALLY dislike K-1 MAX. I hate the rules, the BAD referee calls, the judges are biased, and especially all the freak shows that they do.

Aren't styles made purely for killing better? Seems like a more logical choice.

>>4450751
Ah, I came to this thread because I was browsing /sp/ and saw an MMA-related thread. The OP mentioned that he started this topic and had the troll with the aikido posts. I had to go and see for myself what was being said.

sup faggots.

just the greatest Japanese fighter of all time here

>>4450751
OP here. I was honestly curious about the response I would get, and really am a dedicated fan of Japanese fight culture.

And yeah, I am a /sp/artan.

>>4450761
He needs to have fight against Anderson Silva again. That scissor takedown transition into heel hook was epic win.

>>4450749
i'm still unclear about K-1 MAX rules they always change them. is thai clinch still alowed after one knee?

iirc kohi was thai clinching and throwing multiple knees quite recently

>>4450787
>/sp/artan
More like /sp/astic.

>>4450786
Only one knee in the clinch is allowed and then you have to break. Kohi was BLATANTLY breaking the rules and that's why Buakaw's face said,"Oh, it's on now, bitch!"
The rule changes are because Semmy Schilt is so damned tall, he pretty much kills anyone in the clinch. And K-1 prefers more punches and kicks as well knockouts so they don't like the clinch. It's because it draws more viewers that way. I prefer to watch AJKF and SNKA if I want to watch the Japanese kickboxing/muay thai scene.
>>4450787
Everyone in /sp/ is avoiding my question, but is /sp/ really going to be taken down? And if so, why is this happpening?

>>4450803
Quiet you.

>>4450778
Yes, that was one of the best MMA finishes of all time

>>4450814
AJKF dissolved recently? what are they now?

>>4450750
You can only defend so much of your body at any given moment, so different styles and stances place different emphasis on protecting various body zones.
Styles made purely for killing often assume that the opponent is also going for a pure kill, so tend to emphasize defense centering on vital zones. Sometimes this means that they'll end up with too little defense on a non-vital zone that can nevertheless be crippling, especially when it comes to a non-killing style that specializes more in exploiting that zone.
For example, if you're too focused protecting your windpipe from being crushed, you may end up leaving yourself open for a submission or non-lethal choke. Similarly, if you're too focused on protecting against submissions and non-lethal chokes, you may end up leaving your temples or other vital points unprotected. Etc etc etc.
TLDR, there is no ultimate style.

>>4450750
considering the dominance of, of all things, collegiate/grecoroman wrestling in MMA... i would say no.

Aikido does not reflect attacks.
It reverses them, and furthermore: Add more force.

A reversed 9mm bullet is more like a fucking cannonball made of burning suns of rage. It could easily tear through a tank.

That is the power of Aikido.

>>4450854
AJKF dissolved in 2009 because the management had ties with the yakuza as well as other illegal activities. It's that sort of shit that caused kickboxing in Japan to vanish from 1983 to 1993. During that ten-year interim, there was hardly any good events because all the sanctioning bodies were involved in a HUGE scandal with organized crime.

>>4450898
Much as I love MMA, from a purely self-defense perspective it really annoys me that its growing popularity is giving rise to a lot of bad street-fighting habits, especially when it comes to asymmetrical groundfighting (when only one of you is on the ground) and small joint locks.

>>4450995
habits like what?

any fights outside of a sport/recreational setting i see haven't really changed much since i was a kid... but then, mma isn't that popular in my area.

>>4450995
I also don't like how they talk smack about boxing and muay thai. As in, boxers and Muay Thai practioners that don't cross-train in submission grappling.
Seriously, it's a different fight discipline. Where the hell does MMA get it's striking primarily from? Boxing and Muay Thai.

There was this BJJ blue belt that was pretty full of himself at the gym I train. He thought he could get us onto the ground and choke us out. Tim, one of the senior guys who trained for several years, just kept on low kicking the shit out of this blue belt's thighs until he couldn't walk properly and then hit him with a cross. He went down for a while. When he woke up, he went outside for a bit, came back and apologized. Tim welcomed him back and told him that we woudln't talk about it, if he never pulled something like that again. He's now a devoted Muay Thai trainee these past 4 months.

>>4451072
If you want to know why grappling guys feel entitled to talk shit about striking styles, see UFCs 1-5. Strikers got their asses kicked with alarming regularity.

Also
>blue belt
lol.

I train UFC and I guarantee I could take any aikido faggot.

>>4451135

>>4451133
Only under fight sport conditions. I like grappling as much as any MMA fan or fighter, but talking shit about striking is idiocy. Pre-UFC, people DID know about ground-fighting. Hell, this country used to have catch-as-catch-can wrestling and its wrestlers used to tour the world at the turn of the 20th century and fought against other styles of wrestling. It's because of the stupid kung fu craze in the 70's and the ninja phase in the 80's that people neglected grappling was seen as "lowly". Even karate and kenpo utilized some wrestling in its early days, because a lot of the founders did street fighting. Shit, where does BJJ and sambo get a lot of its moves from? Judo, which had everything from strikes, takedowns, ground transitions, and submissions. But judo, wrestling, and other grappling sports just didn't get its due respect until MMA exploded onto the minds of the average person.

>>4451196
>It's because of the stupid kung fu craze in the 70's and the ninja phase in the 80's that people neglected grappling was seen as "lowly".

Pretty sure the rise of pro wrestling also had something to do with it...

>>4451217
That too. But remember in the 70's and 80's, it was all about Bruce Lee wannabes and ninjers.

Go back to sherdog, you fuck-knuckle.

>>4451133

And now grappling has taken a back seat.

>>4451135
I could send your nerd ass flying to the sun

>>4451281
Bring it, bitch

>>4451290
tape

it's tape.

>>4451249
Not true
Look at the UFC champions:
BROCK LOSNOR - collegiate wrestler, all american
Machida - supposedly good on the ground?
Silva - Pretty sick on the ground in addition to world-class striking
GSP - Amazing wrestling ability forms the centerpiece of his strategy
BJ Penn - BJJ black belt, master of the RNC

>>4451249
Because strikes have cross-trained and learned how to defend themselves against grapplers. Pure grapplers can't work in MMA anymore. If you were to bring Anderson Silva in UFC 1, he'd kick the shit out of Royce and everyone else.

>>4451281
Lol you fuggin' with the wrong man, boy. You can't handle my unorthodox style; I got knock out power in both hands and my strikes come in at weird angles. You and your old formal stuff would get outclassed badly by my mixfight style.

>>4451332
Its lunch, I went to my favourite sandwich shop, got a delicious veal sandwich and was on my way back home. There was this thuggish "Nigga" style black dude, he was behind me, I stopped, because he was walking quite fast, and I didn't want to be in his way.
He comes up to me, and asked, “Do you have any money?”, I knew where he was going with this, so I said, “Yeah, but you’re not getting any of it.”, and I walked away. I suppose it’s in his blood, he was going to punch the back of my head but I quickly grabbed and threw him over my shoulder, he fell down and became unconscious. I checked if he had any drugs/money, found cocaine in his jacket and called the cops.
I guess it wasn’t really a fight since it lasted less than 10 seconds, it really shows how effective Aikido is in real life situations.
It feels good to help the police catch drug dealers/druggies.

>>4451332
>I got knock out power in both hands and my strikes come in at weird angles

...Evan Tanner?

>>4451351
>Aikido makes you racist

Oh god mma fags in /jp/. Give me KoG any day over this.

>>4451312

Most of those guys win a majority of their fights on their feet. BJ will occasionally choke a bitch, but that's about it. Wrestling is technically grappling, but they're just using it to punch people in the face more effectively.

I personally love watching subs, Aoki and Sakuraba are the shit.

>>4451366
'Oh god, a single thread I do not like, give me senseless spam.'
Fascinating.

>>4451378
Sakuraba along with Funaki are the two greatest catch wrestlers in MMA. I wish they were both born 10-15 years later. Shit would be so cash if they were in their prime right now.

>>4451378
That's true for Machida and Silva.

However, Penn has as many wins by submission as he does by knockout. GSP spends more than half of his fights slamming opponents and pounding.

And you can't tell me you think LOSNOR is in any way a good striker on his feet.

>>4451351
I was walking to the UFC gym in my tapout shirt when some faggot in a gi stopped me at the door and yelled "I TRAIN AIKIDO." He took up some stiff formal stance and bowed in respect. Fuck dat nigga, dis is for real, so I didn't touch gloves with him. I went into my southpaw stance and started landing leg kicks early just to outpoint him. He tried his own legkicks but I caught it and shot in for the takedown and unleashed my ground and pound. My elbows are like machetes and I cut him up early, leading to a referee stoppage.

>>4451447
I really hope we get to see Fedor fight Lesnar.

>>4451463
Sadly, the part that makes me rage most is
>tapout shirt

>>4451463
>He tried his own legkicks
obviously not an aikidoka
this story is fake and makes me think your fighting style is fake too

a shame, i had thought i found a decent opponent

>>4451481
I'd rather see Fedor retire with no real losses...

>>4451486
I'll take you on standing or on the ground. I got an underrated ground game and a black belt in BJJ from Rolles Gracie.

>>4451516
I'll just reverse your attacks and leave you impaled in the nearest wall (or the roof)

>>4451535
You'll break your own neck trying that shit out when I've got you in a peruvian necktie after transitioning from an inversed triangle choke.

>>4451554
simply by shaking my head a little i send you flying to the closest hospital

>>4451570
You'll shake your head right into my swickotine and get choked out after I demolish you with some overhand rights.

>>4451586
I just move my hips a little to send you flying to the closest aikido dojo so you can learn some REAL DEAL martial arts instead of disney shit

>my face when tripfags were circlejerking near me

I guarantee all you hard talking nerds took karate at age 12 for a week then quit. PROVE ME WRONG

>>4451629
my face when i fucked your mother

Holy balls /sp/ is easily trolled.

They acknowledge they're being trolled and still bite anyway.

This is amazing

>>4451507

Fedor is fucking amazing, but I would enjoy the shit-storm that would ensue were he to lose. The overeem fight will be good.

Aikido is inferior to the original, superior, Corean martial art, Hapkido.

An Aikidoka can only stand and react. You can beat an aikidoka with no effort, simply by doing nothing. If I wanted to rob an aikidoka, all I would have to do is make sure not to attack him while doing so. It would be easy. You cannot redirect any force if none is applied.

But even a mere white belt in Corean Hapkido could defend against a nonaggressive attacker with his striking prowess.

>>4451644
>all I would have to do is make sure not to attack him while doing so. It would be easy. You cannot redirect any force if none is applied.

Aikido can disable you too
you should inform yourself more about the strength of aikido

>>4451610
>I just move my hips a little

Yea, and let me end up right into side control and lock in the D'arce choke.

>>4451647
>implying saying another board is easily trolled implies anything other than that you're butthurt.

>>4451656
then i tenshinage your ass to the ground and leave you disabled since it was time for my daily mystic square lunatic run

>>4451669

U mad

>>4451677
>implying I am mad when in fact, u mad.

>>4451698

U mad.

If Aikido is so good then why do its practitioners carry guns? All I need is my 4 ounce gloves and some Xyience for energy.

>>4451708
aikido is too overpowered and deadly
with a gun you can leave a corpse
now with aikido, you will erase the existence of your opponent
you won't believe how many people got carried away and ended up vanishing their opponents

If Aikido is so good then why did this old man show up on google images? Does it alleviate the effects of senility and arthritis?

>>4451772
He is the creator of Aikido
he is exactly 19853 years old
