katanas have been associated with unrestrained autism long before autists discovered fedoras

>>663486172
If you are choosing what you do and do not like / like to do based on what other people like, then you need to reevaluate yourself.

>>663486172
Why do you care? Buy a colt 45. Lot more effective than a piece of steel that often breaks when used like a normal sword.

The katana is easily the single most overrated weapon in history.

>>663486779
>katanas have been associated with unrestrained autism long before autists discovered fedoras
This. It is a damn shame though.

>legendary warriors
>not as good as the average European knight

Try harder weeb

>>663487031
Even making such a comparison immediately elevates you to at least medium levels of autism.

>>663486172
Totally agree about the katanas bro I had a set on my wall which I Fucking loved but I've got rod of them since people are associating them with weeboo autists

if you're not japanese you have no reason nor business wielding a katana. This is coming from an asian.

Keep to your own shit, gwailo

>>663486172
>katana
>legendary weapon

Yeah, confirmed weeaboo. Katanas are only "legendary" because of Japanese media. If you weren't such a fucking weeb tard, you wouldn't give two shits about them. Fucking autist.

>>663487452
>wielding
Yeah because blades are so OP compared to guns these days

>>663487327
If you're in shape and take it seriously, it won't be the same. It's not the same as the fat fedora guys showing them off. It is an actual sport as well, if you could find a place to train and spar with other people... it would be a pretty cool hobby to most people.

>>663487327
Learn something interesting. Like a Falchion, Fencing, European Swordsmanship. Katanas aren't all they're hyped up to be. I'd rather have a 7ft claymore than a floppy ass Katana.

>>663487452
That's like telling the entire world to fuck with guns because you're not American

>>663487499
I said legendary warriors not weapons

>>663487632
Thanks man I appreciate that

>>663487452

Fuck off kiddo.

>>663487575
it's a proven fact that a ninjistu can block bullets with a katana or even cunt them in half midair

nobody's even talking about swords vs guns. Of course guns are superior, retard. That doesnt mean swordplay isnt a sport in its own right, like how archery is

>>663487452
Fine with me I saw the last samurai I'll keep my gun you fucking jackass

>>663487499
Checked

>>663486172
Katanas are gay, the celts used the same method of folding metal to make weapons thousands of years before those sneaky japs

Katana is over rated. The European longsword is more versatile imo

Holy shit OP is so fucking fedora.

>>663486172
The difference is they don't master it

>Being this guilo

>>663487814
I doubt that
>>663487859
We are talking about weebs here not sportsmen. There is no one who is going to weild one other than sportsmen

>>663486172
I joined kendo in university, do you seriously lack the self confidence to do what you like just because other people will judge you? Thats pretty beta.

>>663487672
>>663488039
Haha yeah I guess the weapon isn't all its hyped up to be but I enjoy the history behind it reallly

>>663488115
The fuck is guilo

>>663488027
>>663488039
Not OP but I would like to point out that what you are saying is not really relevant. He isn't arguing that it's a superior weapon or anything autistic like that. He just appreciates it and how it has been historically used.

>>663487719
>warriors
>weapons

Same shit, still weeb.

>>663487719
guns are not even invented in america, dumbass

>>663487790
fuck off, white boi. Unless you are japanese, you have no business playing with their cultural toy. I dont sperg out like an autist over a katana or a american indian tomahawk or whatever

>>663488267
I'm sorry I corrected your stupid ass. Don't take it so personally though.

Also, never once have I stated a Katana is a good weapon. I've been the guy talking against getting the Weeabo Flag.

>>663488229
It was used retardedly they mad their armour of of the same material, japs are retarded
>they built planes to fly into shit

>>663488193
It's not like I have any friends or anything to even fear judgement from
I AM CONFIDENT

>>663488232
Ok

>>663488267
No but they're glorified here, dumbass

>>663488229
Thank you for this

>>663488571
its cool

no jimmies rustled, just how i type on 4chan

yeah, i hear ya OP.
a good sturdy club or mace is a lot less messy too.

>>663487672
Have you ever held a real katana? Or a real 7ft claymore? Only shit katanas are floppy and even those have little flop. A 7ft claymore has so much flop compared to a katana because of its size. Also is very annoying to swing around without proper training and even that is mediocre at best.

>>663488710
??
how does guns being gloried in america make them an american product?

why dont you take a look at this cultural arab dance with fucking ak47s, maybe the gun should be an arab thing then

second only to the german tiger 1

I'm a fit 33 year old white male who makes in excess of 80k a year that trains both Kenjutsu and Jojutsu(Shinto Muso Ryu Jo) atleast 9 hours a week as a form of physical meditation.

Feel free to ask me any questions.

Everybody knows ak47s are Russian made though

>>663489271
Why do you feel the need to wack your bag to loli?

>>663489271
In America?? How'd you get into it?

>>663488624
What?

the katana's value is not in how strong it is, or how useful it is, or how cool it looks. the amount of respect and honor that goes into making traditional katanas is astounding, it's a deeper connection than just user and weapon. of course, fuckin weebs with katanas dont understand that either

>>663489439

You know, there's nothing wrong with studying a martial art for its own merit. Nobody will ever argue that a katana, or even a sword of any kind is a comparable weapon today. Even Musashi wrote that the sword was on its way out in his era, and that any warrior who cared about his own survival needed to get and learn how to use a gun. I started taking kenjutsu in college after a teacher started up a club, mostly because it was a small group and I thought it would be interesting. I didn't have a definite reason for taking it, but I don't regret it. I've since gone on to take tai chi, and I don't regret that either. I had one friend criticize me about it, demanding to know if I was turning into a 'wapanese' because I had martial arts equipment in my home. It's like demanding to know if someone is turning Irish for drinking on St. Patrick's day. Just because you enjoy something or find some sort of merit in it doesn't mean you're appropriating someone else's culture.

I'll be brief, but very closely after graduating high school I took on a retiring gunsmith as a mentor who had served in Vietnam as an 11B in the Army. He was an eager teacher for students and I visited every weekend shooting well over 10,000 pistol rounds that first year. Eventually he suggested I read a book called "Zen and Japanese Culture" that he had picked up while in extended working stay in Japan. I read it, became very interested in Budo and over the course of the next 5 or 6 years focused on practicing my meditation through firearms.

I read nearly every book written by old time Samurai I could find after, bought a bokken and practiced primarily at home Iaido style for many years.

A job opportunity carried me to a city which has a very reputable dojo that practices SMR Jodo and Kenjutsu with frequency and so I joined as soon as I heard about it.

Don't shoot as much anymore, but I'll pick that back up as work allows. Also very interested in Kyudo(archery).

Through the course of these studies I've met a significant number of esteemed personal mentors.

Believe it or not weaboos there are many highly professional retired old men leaders of companies, leaders of government, and leaders with military history who study these arts as a personal pursuit, and most of them truly enjoy passing the legacy down to younger compatriots that are serious about learning.

Highly recommend any form of martial arts to those interested in self actualization.

>>663489585
lol, there are a lot of these guys that join up anon, but most only stick around 2 or 3 months before quitting. The people who actually stick to it for years are generally relatively successful people that look like "ordinary" men and women.

Also, his hands are wrong. Your hands are held with the fingers of the left hand resting atop the fingers of the right as if sitting in a basket. The tips of the thumbs should be lightly touching, as if pinching together a butterflies wings. Recommend this weaboo to look into the precious mirror of Samadhi.
