What combat knowledge from the TV show Human Weapon (2007) will you take with you to get isekai'd

[Generic.Archdemon]

You are about to be isekai-ed. to a world of minor magics and fighting! It's a world where life is cheap and you must know how to fight to live longer than a week!

Lucky for you, the goddess of transmigration will grant you combat knowledge!

Beamed directly into your brain and gives you some small-scale body sculpting so you can use said knowledge.

Unfortunately for you, the Goddess is obsessed with the 2007 TV show Human Weapon. And will only grant you 1 of the 16 fields of martial arts covered in the show. And will only optimise your body to fight in that style of combat.

Which one will you choose and why?

Spoiler

1. Thailand - Muay Thai
2. Philippines - Arnis
3. Okinawa (Japan) - Karate
4. France - Savate
5. Japan - Judo
6. Greece - Pankration
7. Israel - Krav Maga
8. United States - Marine Corps Martial Arts
9. United States - Mixed Martial Arts

If the movie logic is in then chinese kung fu is 100% the choice.


have you seen what those mfs can do wth.... they have innate slow falling and parry everything like water. Safe to say my enemy will die of high blood pressure from their anger before my hits kill them

 

[ArchlordZero]

If it's anime logic, definitely ninjutsu.


Because that is my ninja way! Believe it!

Arnis is cool, an actual fast demonstration makes it look like they're really trying to tear each other's throats. but since both know how to arnis, it's usually blocked. They use can use medium sized swords, daggers, and even barehanded. what more can you ask for. Also dual wielding is an option in this martial art. Actual practical dual wielding, so that's more Chuuni+ points to me.

American Gun-Fu.

My hands are already enough.

German Bureaucracy! It only didn't make it into the list because of its too-high lethality! Nobody survived the Fist of Legislation that destroyed whole cityscapes without even trying.

Or Castration. The greek one.

I'll stick with what I already know.
Drunken Monkey.
I learned it because it actively teaches you to ignore your inner ear and learn how to keep your balance by the swaying. When my skull was put back together the strips of metal they used caused my two ears to become slightly out of synch making me constantly dizzy. I had nonstop vertigo. Drunken Monkey taught me how to ignore it and focus on the feel of gravity when you sway to keep your balance.

I'm not good at it, I just have the basics so I can walk without puking, but if I get to be a free expert at something, I'll stick with what I know.
So... I guess mixed martial arts?

Who the fuck chose san da 散打?

Just because Jackey Chan, Jet Lee, Bruce Lee or even Donnie Yen is your idol doesn't mean that san da is your choice.

San da like karate and taekwondo, is a sport and used in competition. Slightly useful IRL compared to the common dweeb, but still not as great as Muai Thai or Krav Maga.

If you picked it for Kung Fu, make sure it is either Northern Shaolin style that actually has practical fighting moves instead of posing stances, or Wing Chun or Hung Ga.

Mma its the closest to jiu jitsu so mma it is im going to beat the isekai shit of everyone and prove the superiority of jiujitsu to the world

 

[Peter3135566]

Krav maga is more usefull for its close contact focus, self defance and defusing a faild knife attack and such. Given sword and magic, eny of the 16 would likly be starting point and fallback rather then main combat method beyond the first while.

Otherwise mixd matirial art is a close second for me, but i only know of it second hand and third hand of meny of the others so idk

American Gun-Fu.

You should have seen that manga

 

[Seren]

i think everything is possible; it makes one seem like the strongest main character

 

[LORD_SHAXX]

Whatever shit they were using in the raid

 

[CarburetorThompson]

MMA is probably the best choice because it's a combination of striking and grappling.

But if I actually had to learn something without magic isekai I'd pick Maui Tai or Savate because I feel personally I'd get more use out of learning striking
