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. Hazama (talk) 02:29, December 27, 2010 (UTC)
