Subayai Kitsune Posted January 8 Report Posted January 8 To aid my learning, I’m trying to find a resource that describes/defines the characteristics of the gokaden, preferably a book but website is good too! Can anyone suggests such a resource? Quote

Subayai Kitsune Posted January 9 Author Report Posted January 9 Oh how embarrassing, this book is on my bed stand. I’ll check the edition and then maybe I should read it ☺️🙏🏽 1 Quote
Cola Posted January 12 Report Posted January 12 I read the Connoisseurs book, and I was wondering, has someone ever made a table to summarize this? Ie. one column for each of the schools and a characteristic (Nie vs nioi, Hamon shape, Hada etc.) in every row. Quote
