Talk:Hakuda

Shouldn't WW be on here?

WW? Also please sign your comments. Ltjuno (talk) 19:36, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Are you referring to Wonderweiss Margera? That is the only person I can think of you could initialize as WW. If so then actually yes he should. He has Expert Hand-to-Hand in his Powers and Abilities. Ltjuno (talk) 19:47, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Hakuda and Hand-to-Hand Combat aren't necessarily the same thing. If it was, then we'd have Arrancar on the article. Wonderweiss isn't the only Arrancar missing; they all are. Neither him nor any other Arrancar is going to go on the article. Arrancar109 (Talk)  19:53, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I noticed that, I am actually going to ask Salubri about it and see what he says. Ltjuno (talk) 19:55, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

I remember him telling someone else this answer. And the reason being is that Soifon, Yoruichi, and especially Yamamoto have demonstrated that Hakuda is a specific form of hand-to-hand combat, not just all-around unarmed combat ability. Soifon and Yoruichi have shown that they fight in a specific discipline, and Yamamoto has demonstrated two named hakuda-specific techniques, so it is a specific style, not a classification.

Well yeah I didn't really look at it that way, Hakuda is a fighting style not just Hand-to-Hand in general. Well hey I am going to start another discussion below then about a related subject. I will close this one. Ltjuno (talk) 20:06, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Confusion about Hakuda.
In the above article I noticed where a lot of confusion regarding Hakuda is stemming from. Hakuda is a Hand-to-Hand technique used specifically by Shinigami. It is not Hand-to-Hand in general. But, in the list showing the Masters, Experts, etc... We refer to them as "Masters/Experts of (Hand-to-Hand) Combat. Not as Hakuda. This page is specifically meant for Hakuda combatants only. To help get rid of this confusion I would like suggesting that we change their titles from Masters/Experts of "Hand-to-Hand" and change it to Masters/Experts of "Hakuda". I think that this would help prevent everyone from being confused as much, as I personally also thought that everyone (including the Arrancar) fell into this category when they did not. Please tell me what you think. Ltjuno (talk) 20:12, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

EPIC BUMP! Anyway, to anyone else that should have this confusion, this is what I think and, is most likely true: Hakuda is the "Style" that the Shinigami use, not hand-to-hand in general. Arrancar use their own style of hand-to-hand combat which is not Hakuda, and has not been explained. So I would say Arrancar don't use Hakuda and because of that, I would recommend changing it to Hakuda. Thats what I think, a mix of facts and common-sense.

Sokotsu
In the fight between Genrysai Yamamoto and Wonderweiss, the attack Sokotsu was used to effectively destroy the latter.

But there was more to it. As Sosuke Aizen describes it, he claims that Genryusai Yamamoto had cracked or destroyed his soul entirely. Any reconsideration on the description? Please take this into consideration, and correct me if i am wrong.

The current description is fine. Don't forget that Shinigami, Hollows, and Arrancar are all spirit beings (meaning they're already in soul form), so Aizen stating that he "destroyed his soul" doesn't really mean much. A change isn't really necessary. Arrancar109 (Talk)  19:26, January 8, 2011 (UTC)
