Is he talking about a Ka-Me-Ha-Me-Ha?

there wasn't a shred of sophistication in that weapon... just pure, unadulterated savagery and animal instinct🙂

Karen Sanchez19 said:Jamie Cox48 is out here claiming they aren't banned, while the engine guys swear they totally are.🤔

Personally, I’m leaning toward them being banned too.🤔

But how would they even enforce a ban on those? Do they have some kind of energy sensor for that?😁

I'd love to see where that's actually written down...

Karen Sanchez19 said:I’m still a big believer in those niche martial arts techniques... I’ve even seen it in documentaries.😁

I remember watching this video once about an Aikido master taking on seven guys at once. They were all trying to grab his arms and couldn't budge him. Then they all rushed him at the same time, and he just sent them flying across the room without even breaking a sweat. The crazy part? The little guy was barely five feet tall.😁

Karen Sanchez19 said:That’s just nonsense...

If a cop catches you with a kitchen knife, what are you gonna say? "Oh, I just picked this up five minutes ago"? And if they find a small switchblade on you, you're headed straight to jail. 🤔

And if someone gets stabbed in a public plaza in the middle of the night... personally, I don't see that as some kind of "public demonstration." 🙂 🙂 😁

I mean, if you're out wandering the streets at 3 AM, you're probably going to look suspicious regardless. 😁

But even if it's a legitimate pocketknife, at most you'll get a slap on the wrist. Besides, a 2-inch blade isn't exactly a weapon of mass destruction. If we're really splitting hairs, a rock is a way more dangerous weapon, not to mention cars. 🤣

At the end of the day, it all comes down to intent. Someone walking around with knives and blades on the street likely has the same intentions as someone carrying a baseball bat—it's just that when things actually go south, that's when the legal system finally cracks down on you. 😁

But let’s be real: in most scenarios, those kung fu stylists just can't handle a full-contact fighter,

Once they get hit with one of those "energy strikes," it's game over.🙂 🙂

So, I'm asking again: is anyone actually heading to the Shaolin Kung Fu exhibition at the Madison Square Garden arena??????????

There’s zero craftsmanship in that weapon... just pure, unrefined savagery.🙂

Look, weapons are designed to kill, not to be some museum piece you admire for its fine detail. Honestly, this looks like one of the more effective 😁

Baphomet said:Ka-Me-Ha-Me?

😁

👍 🙏 🙏

😂😂😂

I've been waiting for this from you, Baphomet:

Can you actually believe I still haven't managed to track down a damn Dragon Ball (not the Z version) just to watch it one more time?

First, I check Netflix, and they won't even show me the last 20 episodes. Then I try Hulu, and they don't even have half of them available.

P. S: Dodon Val is somehow much more refined. Just sort of... effortless.😂

Man, that’s exactly how those Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu guys operate too... but honestly, UFC is where it's at. It's been the best way to see which styles and types of fighters actually hold up when things get real.

Kamehameha? 🤔

I need to see where that’s actually written down somewhere...

Yeah, they totally do. Before you step into the ring, they run you through an energy check, and if your levels are too high, you're barred from fighting. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Pretty sure that's tucked away in the official rules for Ultimate.

Kamehameha.
I can't recall the specific name.

So, you aren't exactly a Dragn Ballo enthusiast, are you?

If you actually watched how they fight... in my view, anime offers a level of detail that’s unmatched. The Japanese creators produce something truly unique. It’s leagues ahead of that repetitive American superhero garbage, like Batman or Superman.

Kamehame?

It’s not "Kamehame," it’s Ka-me-ha-me-ha.

Come on, get real... just look at how much info kids have access to regarding Dragon Ball Z. There are thousands upon thousands of websites and forums out there. Everything from Ki levels to power scaling—it's all right there at their fingertips.

Oh, they absolutely do. Before the weigh-in, they check you against an energy meter. If your levels are spiked too high, you're disqualified from competing.

I'm pretty sure that's explicitly laid out in the official Ultimate ruleset.

They basically take a Kirlian photograph of them😂

It's probably nothing serious, though. I assume that when you're talking about "authentic" skills like Kung Fu or Tai Chi, using those kind of energy techniques in a sanctioned match is strictly off-limits. What’s your take on that?

It’s just like how the Vulcans do it in "Star Trek." They grab someone by the neck and they just drop instantly. 😁

I also read somewhere that there's a specific strike in certain martial arts aimed at the chest area designed to cause immediate cardiac arrest upon impact.

Not being too serious here, but I’m guessing "real" martial arts like Kung Fu or Tai Chi don't actually allow you to use those weird energy techniques during a match. What do you guys think about that?

Oh, for sure. Just imagine some tiny guy, maybe 4'11" and barely 100 pounds, just knocking out Phillips with one single hit! 😂 😂 😂
