51st All Japan Iaido — 7th Dan Final

B4 Judging me 😊

Red 🍒

Kind of a silly comment. It’s Kata dude😂

Easy moves

How silly - waving swords around - at nobody, in particular!

Not much of a "martial art", if you don't have an opponent.

And would any conflict be solved by moving this slowly.

A lot of pomp and ceremony!

Oh le pauvre, je lui aurais donné un drapeau au blanc

I am pretty certain the timing of the last kata is what gave red the advantage. And I don't even have 1st kyu.

White is better than Red, I am impressed.

totally bound behavior

how do you even judge iado tournament. like what?

Does anybody knows a Link to attend the championships in live transmission?? This year in Hiroshima

judges got that one right.

red was so focused on defeating his opponent

Tokyo style shinden dont take forward steps for shohatto?

Example of that we must achieve in this marvelous Art.

愚挙, 娘心

Amazing

White's nukitzuke are awsome!
