So 'evasion' is a wrong translation because... -Toptomcat 04:38, 16 January 2007 (UTC) wrong wrong all wrong[reply]

Style[edit]

I'm not sure, but it seems the language style of this article needs some adjustments to be more "encyclopedic". --212.251.182.150 (talk) 01:32, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think everything after the first couple of paragraphs has been copied from an Enshin or Ashihara karate website blurb. It reads like an advertising text, as though Ashihara invented the concept when it was established in the article introduction that many martial arts use the concept. I suggest deleting much of it - any objections? Shinji nishizono (talk) 08:19, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No objection, especially as pertains to the last bit about the "difficulty" of translating 捌き which is a perfectly normal word meaning something like 'handling.' Body handling. Wow, how mystical. --Sauzer (talk) 01:40, 9 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
