The Kusanagi is a mythical Japanese sword said to be handed down from the sun-goddess Amaterasu. (See above). Kusanagi, it seems, is also a Japanese model and possibly porn star (see above). Unfortunately, we're concerned with the former.
The second month of the Kusanagi Research Project has yielded a curriculum of basic techniques for common attacks, a database of attacks and source list, or 'bibliography.'
The curriculum, which Joey Danu has set out in a chart, resembles a cross between WW2 combatives, Moni Aizik's combat jujutsu, John Perkin's attack proof, and some Indonesian spices and flavourings.
The trick now will be refine, modify, and practice, practice, practice. Drill, drill, and drill some more.
The practice will involve full contact attacks with mats, shields, and mits.
We'll also train outdoors on a variety of different surfaces. This environment training is what is most lacking in nearly all reality programs, I'm told, including the pros, that is military and police. (In fact, it seems from our research that the military and police aren't all they're cracked out to be when it comes to unarmed combat, because they're rarely unarmed. Even the special forces have to spend so much time studying stuff like ballistics and technology, they might not have time to be cutting edge in hand-to-hand stuff).
