My FATHER was a monk. LITERALLY. He was LINKED to the Warrior Class of History, technically speaking.
I'm a descendant of a man who's linked to real warriors in both the public perception and historic terms....
Man! No wonder everyone wants to fight me! They smell my Eastern Warrior Blood unconsciously and want to Battle without giving it a Second Thought.
But yes, I LOVE fighting, but especially cinematic fighting, with swords.
My fighting style is naturally drawn towards both the Legs (Northern Leg Northern School Shaolin Kung-Fu) and the work and fighting style of Miyamoto Musashi, who invented the Dual-Wielding technique, another one of my favorite fighting techniques. That's why I bought 2 shinai, instead of 1, so I could practice dual wielding. I'm naturally drawn to aerial fighting styles using high kicks, aerial acrobatics, and dual wielded swords and firearms. This isn't necessarily the kind of choreography that I can do in real life. But it IS the kind of choreography I see in my mind, as a choreographer of the illustrated page....
Speaking of Fighting, what happened to DBZ anyway.
What happened to Children's cartoons anyway? These "gaming and strategy cartoons" nowadays (Beyblade, Pokemon, and the like) are TOO HARMLESS. You should really have your protagonist in danger of SOME form of real harm if you're doing action cartoons. Otherwise how are you going to create suspense anyway? Certainly not with a deck of CARDS(!) or PET ANIMALS(!)
