word on kanji readings<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most Japanese kanji have more than one reading, and so do the kanji for rope (\u7e04) and capture (\u6355). As a result, the kanji combination for\u00a0\u6355\u7e04 (arresting\/capturing with rope) can either be read as \u201chojo\u201d or as \u201ctorinawa\u201d.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To further complicate matters, the kanji for rope (\u7e04) within the context of the Japanese tying arts as described in this book can sometimes mean \u201crope\u201d in the physical sense as in hayanawa (\u65e9\u7e04, literally meaning fast rope \u2013 the relatively short rope made for an initial arrest and temporary bondage) and as in honnawa (\u672c\u7e04, literally meaning main rope \u2013 the relatively longer rope used for more long-term and elaborate bondage). But, the kanji for rope (\u7e04) often also stands for describing a certain technique or type of bondage, such as in taishonawa (\u5927\u5c06\u7e04\u2013 a bondage meant for higher ranked samurai officers\/generals) or in ketsujo (\u5091\u7e04\u2013 a kind of special-purpose bondage).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About the author<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fujita Seiko (\u85e4\u7530\u897f\u6e56), the reputed 14th soke of Koga-ryu ninjutsu, is not only known as a legendary martial artist but also for his research on the ancient warrior arts of the Samurai \u2013 not unlike Nawa Yumio (\u540d\u548c\u5f13\u96c4), another \u201clast ninja\u201d and martial arts historian.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other books by Fujita Seiko include:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zukai Shurikenjutsu (Illustrated Shuriken),\u00a0\u56f3\u89e3\u624b\u88cf\u5263\u8853<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zukai Kenpo Gokui Atemi Sakkatsuho (Illustrated Secret Kenpo Killing Strikes),\u00a0\u62f3\u6cd5\u6975\u610f\u7576\u8eab\u6bba\u6d3b\u6cd5\u660e\u89e3<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zukai Shinto Muso Ryu Jojutsu (Illustrated Shinto Muso-ryu Jojutsu),\u00a0\u795e\u9053\u5922\u60f3\u6d41\u6756\u8853\u56f3\u89e3<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Note:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to the different readings of the kanji combination\u00a0\u6355\u7e04 the title of this book is sometimes also translated as Torinawajutsu.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The guys over at\u00a0hojojutsu.com and\u00a0hobakujutsu.com must have caught on to something.
