if you think it's a joke look at the wooden posts they're hitting with their wood swords. you don't wear down a solid wood beam like that with weak swings. these guys were scary back in the days when fights were still going on. a single cut from a jigen ryu fellow would probably chop off your limb. contrary to what you see in movies, normal samurai cuts wouldn't even make it through the bones in your hand. these guys wielded katana like meat cleavers and destroyed everything they touched. probably one of the strongest sword schools in japan.

Jigen Ryu was the official sword school of the Shimazu clan. The clan that ruled southern Japan in the Kyushu area today. Jigen Ryu swordsmen were very feared by the swordsmen fighting on the side of the Tokugawa Shogunate because of the sheer ferocity of their attacks and their disregard for their own lives. Fascinating school and fearsome history as well

Utterly magnificent. This style uses the truth of combat as a weapon. Despite your training in the dojo, despite sparring, you WILL be afraid, and the Jigen Swordsmen cares for nothing but cutting you down. Fear is the greatest weapon.

To answer your question, you must understand Jigen Ryu's philosophy. To the ryu, the best and only strategy is to attack and attack with sheer berzerker like ferocity with total disregard for your own life. If I die in the attempt, so be it. But I must destroy my enemy in the process as well. This is Jigen Ryu's approach to combat and why their swordsmen were so feared.

Nope, it ain't a joke. That scream is the Japanese version of the Rebel Yell: it may sound "funny" when watching it from the side, but when that guy is charging at you screaming like that, it'll take a lot of will-power not to turn tail like the Yankees as the Battle of Manassas. Many also laughed at Confederate veterans doing the Rebel Yell years after the Civil War, but Union Veterans respect that yell. Same with the opponents of the Satsuma Clan: they know the psychological effect of the Enkyo scream all too well, and that scream is one of the reasons why the Shogunate was toppled.

yes every man in the street carries a katana sword and a few nunchakas as well as a few ninja stars - just in case some drunken lout gets abusive while out drinking at the local pub. I'm sure the ninjas and sumurai warriors of old would have just carried a 9mm today - their aim was to destroy an opponent and defend their turf. I don't think Japan attacked and pillaged China, Korea and Philippines using swords!
