One of those “black tank top vanity projects” I dare say this is one of the better ones! Mark Swetland, while no Bruce Lee he tries to act like, can do some sweet martial arts in this.

For a movie made in the late 80s (I imagine) it feels like this was made in 1972. Cause the living rooms filmed in this and the outfits “scream” 1970s.

Blood and Steel has decent action, you can laugh at the acting, and sort of give props to Swetland for trying with the limitations he had.

Tekken 8 managed to flesh out many characters by giving them new animations and gimmicks. Whether it's the usage of weapons such as Nina's pistols or Law's Nunchuks, superpowers like Jun's doves and crows, or simple new in-game voice lines such as Nina's 'Joke!', etc.

I'm not necessarily only talking about things your character desperately needs gameplay-wise to survive T8's mechanics, but more about what kind of animations, audiotory and visual elements you've always wanted your character to have.

For example:

As for Julia, I have primarily three wishes:

1. Parry animation: Julia already has great defensive tools, however, she's currently the only fighter who practices a Chinese Martial Art and does not have her own parry. It could be the most useless parry ever, only working under certain conditions (such as only working with low-left kicks lol) and maybe dealing one point of damage, but it could be used as a round-ender, catching opponents off guard and result in a 'wow'/hype-moment during tournaments.

2. Julia is well-known for her agility and her ability to hit like a truck. I personally loved that alongside these very precise attacks, she gained some flashy and more acrobatic animations during her Jaycee era. It fits her carefree and, prior to T7, very cool and laid-back personality. I'd love for her to have more flashy moves, such as hurricanranas which look like she's pulling them off effortlessly.

3. Auditory and visual: I'd love for her animations to mirror her heritage. I'm not sure if this would be considered problematic, but since her entire shtick is nature-based, I'd love for her animations to have sounds that resemble the wind or maybe have some leaves or butterflies similar to her T5 ending appear for split seconds when she is performing certain moves such as her shotgun spins (3+4) or her lashing arrow (f3~1).

What are your wishes? Anna mains: more heels, booty-attacks, or the usage of bazooka in-game? Lei mains: more references to the legend himself, more 'what the heck is going on' on screen? And for all the other missing characters: Let me hear your wishes and thoughts ❤️

I've been on another martial arts binge lately (Baki, Kengan Ashura, Berserk, Vagabond and Kenichi) and now that I'm with those I just want to scratch that itch. I'm aware of cultivation novels but they just tend to devolve into energy clashes and strays away quickly from actual martial combat. So far I'm aware of the following novels: A Thousand Li, The Combat Codes and The Traitor's Son Cycle. Can you guys recommend other novels that focus primarily on martial combat? Weapons or fists, it doesn't really matter to me. Thank you in advance!

I visited a club today that described itself as a "martial arts" club.

Mostly aimed at kids.

Looking at what they did it was clearly karate: karate style blocks etc and Japanese terminology.

They even did kata.

I caught the names of:

Saifa (goju Ryu/ shito ryu ?) Bassai Dai (shito ryu?) Taikyoku Shodan (shotokan?)

I am uncertain what style would combine these kata? Is there a style that practices all three?

Is this giving mcdojo vibes? Or is it common for karate dojos to advertise just as "martial arts" rather than give their style?

Just curious.

Core Theme:

The strongest martial artist in their worlds from prestigious martial arts families who are kind hearted and wise. But one is a “masculine” gal, and one is a “feminine” guy.

Connections:

-High school students that are the strongest martial artists in their world. They are champions who have proven themselves worthy of this title, and strike fear into others because of their strength and skill (Sakura is given the nickname of Ogre due to her fearsome prowess, Honey isn’t allowed to go all out in public as to not scare the United Nations).

-They come from a renowned, well respected, long-living martial arts family who all practice the art diligently. Their families also run a famous dojo.

-Both are very mature and wise (despite Honey’s more childish hobbies), showing much compassion and emotional understanding of their friends. While they are not quick to anger, they are terrifying when angry. They also both have a love of cute things like small animals and flowers.

-They attend a prestigious, private academy which almost guarantees success in life (Hope’s Peak Academy and Ouran Academy). This school, however, is filled with a bunch of eccentric weirdos.

-They are good friends with the protagonist who is a normal student who is a normal person and outsider among the prestigious students of the academy (Makoto and Haruhi). This relationship helps them deepen their understanding of each other and their feelings, as well as their classmates.

Contrasts:

-Sakura is a woman with a more masculine appearance and a tough personality, making her hard to approach for many. Honey is a man with a more feminine appearance and a cutesy personality, making him easy to approach for many.

-Sakura’s closest friend (Aoi) is a smaller, cute, energetic, caring, sweet loving, and athletic student. Like Honey. Honey’s closest friend (Mori) is a larger, intimidating, stoic, gentle, protective, and athletic student. Like Sakura.

Fight Potential:

In terms of actual combat, they really only have their martial arts, which to be fair, they can get wild with. However, you can still make this work quite well. You could have them be the final match in a tournament, where they face down in a respectful brawl, but still allowing their personalities to shine through, with Sakura being much more serious and frowning on Honey’s antics and Honey being more goofy to start, but they grow to understand and respect each other much more as the fight progresses.

Debate Potential:

As of right now, Sakura wins. However, that’s due to lack of Ouran VS Research. There are scenes that could get Honey some stats to rival Sakura. For example, the Starlight Kick, Honey seemingly blowing up a military base, Honey eating multiple cakes in a flash, and likely more. With proper calculations, Honey could get much closer to Sakura in terms of stats. So it’s up in the air until calculations are done.

I'm creeped out by a martial arts instructor in their mid 30s sleeping with a student who is in their early 20s. Is it just me?

Huge Avatar last airbender fan here. Looking for something similar in any kind of cartoon format. Can be shows from any country if it is good. Political, funny, fantasy something in a countryside\fantasy land setting, something to do with natural elements like avatar\Martial Arts (do not like city based\ sci-fi shows\gun related fights). Have seen Korra, dragon prince, FMA brotherhood, Dragon ball, Naruto, Vinland, One punch man, The legend of Vox Machina etc. Really appreciate your suggestions!
