Why were Asians able to develop the best martial arts in human history?
Literally the most effective forms the world has ever known.
Muay Thai alone is among the most favored disciplines for modern MMA/UFC fighters.

too dumb to invent weapons
>>57220294
because they had terrible weapons, like the katana
>>57220294
Every country has viable martial arts for their own populations.
you're from fucking thailand, you're the one supposed to tell us
>competitions with excessive rules to stop people from killing each other
>best examples of how effective certain martial arts are
Come on now Ryan
now listen here, I believe you shouldn't underestimate Aikido. Now I know you may be thinking, "Why take a weakling martial art like Aikido seriously when I am learning Kendo?" I can see why you would think that, how can a peaceful martial arts like Aikido beat a powerful one like Kendo?
Well, I have a story to share with you.
Years ago, I was a Kendoka, I thought I was the toughest kid in high school, I would pick fights, and kick ass. I was full of hate, until I picked a fight with the wrong dude. He was a Japanese exchange student, I still remember his name, Noboru Takeda.
I picked on him because of his hilarious and thick Japanese accent. I told him I was going to beat him so hard, he would go back to China(Yeah, I was a little racist prick.), he never said anything back, made me wanted to kick his ass even harder.
Well, here comes the fight. I threw men and do strikes, he dodged them like I was a mere white belt. I was tiring out and he knew, I saw the smirk on his face that made me raged hard. I put all my strength in one amazing tsuki, and he grabbed past it to my wrist and threw me over. My back smacked on the hard cement ground, and I was knocked out for who knows how long.
When I woke up I was in the school infirmary, I asked the nurse who brought me here, and you guessed it, Noboru Takeda. The next day, he wasn't at school, he was back in Japan, and I never got to thank him, for saving my life and showing me the light. I soon learned that he was an Aikidoka and have been practicing Aikido ever since to show my thanks to him.

My Dad is a master of many martial arts- Taekwondo, Kendo, Sudoku, Go... you wouldn't, no, COULDNT believe your eyes.
He always told me his true power was due to his learning of aikido(he has a black belt but doesn't consider himself a master of the true art, as everyone is a student forever in Aikido). With Aikido, he can end conflicts without hurting anyone, by redirecting their own energy into a armlock or trip that is inescapable(because how can u beat yourselff...?) and he just asks the defeated person if they have calmed down before he lets them go... very beautiful martial arts, aikido is. They say you can even reverse direction of an entire car if you know how...
>Haidong Gumdo is original style of ken jitsu
>Yudo is original style of judo.
>Guhapdo is original style of iaido
>geomdo is original style of ken do
>Hapkido is original style of aikido
>And
>Tang Soo Do is original style of Japanese karate (not a ryukyu karate)
Gongkwon Yusul is Korean jiujitsu.
People would say Those things are original style of jap martial arts
Yes it's true
But actually Not so. it's just Korea and japan is almost exactly the same culture . . Or very similar culture. Thats not a original style but both Korea and Japanese culture is exactly the same things which copied from great china. That is why they are look similar.
>>57220294
Yeah, so is boxing, kickboxing and BJJ
>>57220436
>let's practice martial arts to immediately kill each other
Okay edgelord
>>57220464
holy shit you too met Noboru Takeda? Happened the same thing to me, except the day after he disappeared i was woken up by this noisy little girl (Akane Takeda) who said Noboru whispered he saw the eyes of the dragon in me and he knew i was going to join the local dojo, so she'd have to look after me. Many things happened since then, i got kinda close to Akane (nothing much really, oral is as far as we got) so i decided the next time i see Noboru i'm going to fight him, beat him and tell him i'm going to marry his sister and i just won his approval.
See you soon, Takeda.
lol at these buttmad crying whites itt
literally pathetic lmao

Wouldn't that be the definition of an "effective" martial art?

If we're going by popularity then macs are the best computers. Pound for pound kyokushin karatekas destroy muay thai boxers.
I hate Kendo, serious.
>>57220430
Pedo tourists don't know jack shit
>>57221670
Good, Kendo hate you!!
I love taekwondo, and I hate kendo.
>>57220294
Stole it from the Chinese, like most of their classic culture.
>>57221670
Yes, Kendo is shit. But aikido is great, I practiced Aikido for several years. My dojo was across from a Karate dojo, who would often give us rude remarks, such as Aikido being for weaklings.
Well, one of them challenged me, he was a white male in his 20's. I accepted of course, as I never back down from a challenge.
He had really good form, but his Karate was no match for my Aikido. He delivered a great kick but it was nothing for me, I easily grabbed it and knocked him down. This went on for about 10 minutes until he got too tired.
He got frustrated and left, he was about to cross the street but I stopped him from getting hit by a speeding bus. He didn't say thanks but it still felt good to save someone.
>>57220667
I never knew that. I always thought those were Japanese.
>>57221670
Take up fencing then

>>57220294
because they were manlets
in europe it was always burly dudes fucking up small dudes with as much violence as possible. That's why Japan has Judo and Medival Germany had the Mordhau (tl: murder hit): taking your sword upside down and smashing your opponents skull in with the hilt
Don't need refined techniques if you can just literally fuck your opponent up.
>>57220464
is this the plot of some vietnamese drawingsbook?
>>57220294
Everything you said is wrong though. MMA proves this every single day. The original form of MMA (pancratium) is thousands of years old.
Karate was invented by the Indians and the east Asians turned it into a martial "art" that's mostly for show and works theoretically when pitted against other martial arts that don't allow for performing outside the confines of the style.
The most effective forms come from grappling styles that pepper in brawling like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Russian Sambo (both of which have versions for military use) and the best striking style comes from the Thai.
>>57236936
Actually that nonsense just came down to adapting to a problem. It's not that the "murder hit" was more effective than a blade, because it's not. But if you're fighting someone in armor and you just can't pierce the maille or find some flesh to slash, bludgeoning was still highly effective and even exploited the shortcomings of wearing armor. Rather than having soldiers use their weapons improperly though, they just started carrying around things like war picks or lucerns.

What? Europeans were only bigger than the rest of the world in the 20th century. Europeans were notoriously short throughout. They were towered by aboriginals and natives of all countries. Alexander the Great was 5'0'' and Julius Ceasar 5'4,'' and that was considered average at the time. Europeans were literally 5'4''-5'7'' male height for most of history.
Plus that wouldn't make sense because a manlet in a manlet civilization wouldn't be a manlet, dumbass.
>>57220294
Europeans had martial arts they just stopped using them since warfare changed . do you honestly think knights didnt know how to fight?
>>57237324
>the best striking style comes from the Thai
Of course.
>>57237182
N-no.
>>57220294
Because the rulers banned people from having weapons in fear of rebellions.
They developed a way to use their bodies as weapons.
Wonder if Americans develop some crazy martial arts when Shillary bans all guns?
