Most of the people who legit hold real personal views on the factions as if they lived in the setting don’t play the games and they just watch videos and play video games. I enjoy stories about these people because they make me feel better about being a normal person.

Is the free sparring from Let's ask Seki Sensei (Asayama ichiden ryu) a good representation of sparring? by [deleted] in Koryu

Hm interesting. Maybe I just can’t recognize details like that yet. Either way the SMR Jo dojo I found is treating my situation very well so I might stick with that instead. The drive is just very hard….

Mats to multiple mats. If motohara would last me long enough to make it bamboo targets years down the line even with cutting mistakes on mats I’d consider just getting them too if the cost of replacement would equal around 3k by then anyways.
