Man kann über Masaaki Hatsumi sagen was man will, doch seine tiefe Kenntnis der japanischen Kultur, Tradition und Kampfkünste treibt in diesen Büchern wunderbare Blüten. Dies sind nun keine abwertenden Dinge, sondern in einer Bildreichen, zum Teil sehr humorigen Art berichtet er aus den alten Zeiten der Samurai und des höfischen Lebens.
Zwar geht es im Buch über Kampfkunst, doch zwischen den Zeilen kann man viel über das übertragene Wissen der alten Samurai Zeit erfahren.
Es wird die Rüstung beschrieben, das höfische Zeremoniell und dann auch klassischer Schwertkamp mit dem Katana. In vielen Bildern werden hierbei Formen, sogenannte Kata, vorgestellt und in Bildern Schritt für Schritt dargestellt.
Ein recht einzigartiges Werk in der Form, wobei sogar auf die besondere Tracht der Togukawa Shogunate eingegangen wird, die mittels besonderer Beinkleiner rasche, schnelle Bewegungen durch rituelle Kleidung am Hofe verhindern wollten.
Ein wunderbare Werk, nicht nur für Bujinkan Leute von Interesse.

In this book Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi provides a full overview about the art of swordsmanship and the spirit of martial art in general. Distinguishing between the titles of swordmasters and swordsaint, he comes to explain the deeper philosophical meaning of living with Bufu Ikkan, the "wind of martial arts". The book is filled with excellent pictures of Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi and his Japanese Shihan, performing the art of the blade and a lot of Densho-Scrolls, from a great variety of different Sword-Ryu. A lot of known concepts are explainend in a much deeper way (e.g. Muto Dori, Sanshin, Shingitai ...) In my opinion he tries to show the reader the path of "Budo of tomorrow" and a way to preserve a clean heart, whatever might come. In any case a must-have for each serious martial artist.

Samurai as a spiritual warrior
11. Februar 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Acclaimed samurai of old would while away their elder years writing scrolls to impart their wisdom unto the next generation. These scrolls, a mix of martial arts technique and personal philosophy, would then be the foundation for the various fighting schools. The most famous and acclaimed of these are Musashi Miyamoto's "The Book of Five Rings" and Tsunetomo Yamamoto's "Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai."
Hatsumi Masaaki is determined to continue in this tradition, walking as much as possible in the path of the Sword Saints, the near-mythical warriors of the warring states period. This latest book, "Japanese Sword Fighting: Secrets of the Samurai," is a blend of martial arts photography and technique, ancient scrolls showing the heritage of this kind of work, warrior philosophies and ruminations on the Japanese language and how one can use it to unlock the fighter's path.
One thing this book is not is a history lesson. Anyone seeking further insight into the authentic samurai would be severely disappointed. Hatsumi's interpretation is not one of facts and dates, of reference books and University lectures. He is more interested in the spiritual and allegorical warrior, one who sharpens his soul so that it is straight and upright like the sword that is his symbol. Those who have read other of Hatsumi's books will know more or less what to expect, but its probably not the best book for a new reader.
What you do get, is heavy doses of how to be a warrior with your entire life, not just in the dojo. An inheritor of shared wisdom, passed down from his master Takamatsu Sensei, Hatsumi seems to want to share this with a wider audience and continue the link. Along with this are some striking photographs, a collection of ancient scrolls and photos of Hatsumi and his partners, wearing impressive sets of full samurai armor, demonstrating fighting techniques with a variety of weaponry.
Much of Hatsumi's wisdom comes from the Japanese language itself. The use of Chinese characters, where each individual character has a different meaning, is heavily tied up with what he has to say. One instance of this is his ruminations on the word shiki, which can alternately be read as "wisdom," "to respect the manner of death," or "the importance of determination." Hatsumi brings these together to mean that a warrior finds wisdom by respecting the manner of death, and through personal determination. While not necessary, those with Japanese language skills will be able to read "Japanese Sword Fighting" with a much greater depth.
Followers of Hatsumi will definitely find some insight into their sensei in this book, as will those who see martial arts as more of a spiritual path than a fighting technique. Casual readers, or those interested in the historical samurai and their fighting arts, would do best to seek elsewhere.

The best Bujinkan book yet
10. Februar 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is the best book yet about Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu. The main subject as you may have figured out already is about sword fighting.
Soke is wring about true understanding of a real budoka, religion and budo, the real meaning of bugeijuhappan, what is gokui (the secrets), the meaning of kyusho, between densho and kyojitsu, and many many other things.
Many many pictures from old scrolls Tsukahara Bokuden, Yamaoka Tesshu, Saburi-ryu, Kashima shinden kage-ryu, Yagyu shinkage-ryu, Muso itto-ryu, Hokushin-itto-ryu, Oishi shinkage-ryu and many many other old schools. Also many paintings by Takamatsu Sensei.
There is also many techniques explained with pictures and text in both english and japanese names (with kanji). For example the Muto-dori techniques from Gyokko-ryu, many different sword kamae (many new ones I've never seen before), and the Kukishin-ryu sword techniques, and the kodachi techniques.
There is also many pictures and illustrations, for example fighting in yoroi (samurai armor), and nagabakama (the hakama with very long legs).
Also in the appendix the whole book is in its original language which is of course japanese.
If you are into Bujinkan this is the best book published. And Amazon have a good price, I payed 5600 Yen for the book (approximately 56 USD) and I think it is worth every penny. Buy the book!

Rich in biographical surveys and cultural insight
27. April 2006
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Relatively little has been written covering Samurai sword fighting techniques: here ninja grandmaster provides both a history of the art of Japanese swordplay, rich in biographical surveys and cultural insight, and a survey of classical techniques used in two-sword fighting. Vintage and modern black and white photos and illustrations pack an account that blends step-by-step how-to photos with calligraphy, description, biographies, and background history. A 'must' for any serious not just about Japanese sword fighting, but Japanese culture and history as a whole.
