  • @RodCornholio
    I have a feeling a lot of historic duels were over very quickly.
  • @spell.5695
    when you go to see someone fighting with real katanas and nobody has powers or fly through the roof doing parkour.
  • @Shutsuenji
    this is reality who ever makes the better decision quicker wins the whole fight one move can change the entire battle
  • @zanir2387
    expecting to see them to release their bankai...
  • @ImADolphin
    I can't move. Their spiritual pressure is enormous.
  • @GustavoEBarriga
    As someone said, these were split seconds between blows, I think the same, in ancient times these duels were quick, real quick. It's impressive the amount of precision they put in every posture, thanks for sharing this video.
  • @GandziaxBG
    They make it look super easy. Amazing skills
  • @SeanCum732
    Knowledge rules. I love seeing older generations showing what they know. Learn from them!
  • @potatop172
    They can never take their eyes off their opponent when facing each other, even when putting the Katana away. That’s why they pull it immediately and pull it up to the sword instead of the sword up to it.
  • @Somegoy
    When you watch anime and it's over in a whiz and a flash, this is what they are trying to show you. Most real duels in the age of swords were over in seconds. Crazy reaction times and years of muscle memory
  • Notice how the taller man takes a high stance with his blade VS the smaller man lower stance! An example of fighting positions that enable adversaries to gain the ADVANTAGE!
  • @groovydon
    Back in the the days when samurai were at their peak I bet that you’d find limbs of human being here and there after a a quick dual, when you’re just taking a walk.
  • @YouTubeLate
    I could imagine an actual katana duel back in feudal times. Those unfortunate to lose must’ve felt a cold sensation on their forearms before realizing their chests have been sliced open. 😮
  • @honestcheetah
    What is the history of the friendship between these two? &| could two practitioners, who are strangers, sync so tightly? What joy
  • @Za7a7aZ
    These duels must have been brutal, quick and bloody...limbs must have been flying around when multiple people involved..
  • Comments section are always fascinating. Better than the actual video. So many experts. Thank you quarantine
