I find this kind of comment interesting because it never seems to apply to language. If culture comes from race/ethnicity then surely there would be languages I could naturally speak. Why can I speak Japanese but can’t speak ye olde languages related to my genetic heritage? 🤔

@bunburyoudoujp What koryū do you practise? Or just gendai budō?

@bunburyoudoujp Seitei or koryū MSR? I practise koryū MSR (juntō included, etc.) and another I can't disclose publicly

@the_patch_dev Both. All my seitei is now aligned with MSR. Also…順刀 (juntō)

@bunburyoudoujp Obviously not at enbu, and my lineage is Tanimura-ha. 😉 The other koryū is kenjutsu. Speaking of which, we consider MSR iaijutsu and not iaido.

@the_patch_dev I just follow what the kendō renmei says it is. 🤣 Nice to meet another actual iai practitioner. The significance of juntō might be lost on some people.

@bunburyoudoujp Ahhh yes, the ZNKR. Koryū-by-committee as we cheekily say 😂
