I also came up with the martial arts styles that all of the fighters use in the series today.


...I'm listening.

Okay, I was going to be all useful and give you links to youtube videos, but all of the white boys got me down. So instead I'm just going to list them.

Northern Shaolin Wushu

Eskrima

Hapkido

Aikido

Japanese Archery

Japanese Sword

Korean Archery

Korean Double Longswords

Korean "moonblade" (a polearm)

Bāguàzhǎng

Mongol horse warrior(s)

White Crane boxing

Lung Ying

T'ai Chi with a jian

Tae Kwon Do and Kendo (he does competition! not actually a real fighter)

Taekkyeon (traditional Korean martial art. It's on the UNESCO Cultural Heritage list. Check it out, it's cool)

Saber fencing

And one antisocial dude who does MMA and street fighting.

There's also magic and shamans who can summon the trees to smite their foes, but that's it for the actual styles.

What white boys? This thread has like, 3 responses, (including mine and not including yours) at this point.

White boys can't do martial arts now?

Well fuck, sooooooo sorry for the 80's!

If it makes you feel any better, boxing and BJJ outclass basically any martial arts from a practical perspective.

Mighty whitey wins again.

HORRAY!

Don't you think that Dexter Morgan/Jeff Goldblum would make for great pairing dynamic in an omega verse?

As in, Alpha/Omega verse?

I think they'd burn well.

They have dog knots, so like all furries, require the fire.

Well, when you're trying to find a video showing a pure example of the traditional art, having all of your results be from groups outside of Asia showing the ~real world potential for like, aikido or whatever, or super simple demos, is a little frustrating. There are a lot of non-the people of origin practitioners who have done a lot for the different styles, but the various 'and you too can learn a kick from -blah- at home!' videos weren't helping anything.

Also, the constant fighting in the comments was just ridiculous.
