Trivia

  • Hissatsu: Chiten (必殺:知天) can be translated as Deadly Technique: Knowledge of Heaven, referring to a technique or state of mind that involves deep insight or mastery of a high or superior power. The additional effect of Kuzushi (崩し) is the concept in the Japanese martial arts of disrupting an opponent's center of gravity. It is typically the first step before executing a throw or takedown, ensuring that the opponent cannot resist effectively.
