I don't know how to write in Japanese characters on the web.
But Mega Style Katana Do is really something more akin to (in my more precise word-for-word transliteration) "The way of the Long Katana Style". In other words, we prefer the longer length of the katana prescribed by Mahamuto Musashi, vs. the more popular shorter length. This is often a moot point nowadays, since katanas aren't quibbled over by length. But we're more tradiitional in our approach.
GM Takeshi Ukeno did not know much English. He also did not know how to translate very well, and so some of his translations are imprecise. But if they sufficed for him, they suffice for me. I know their Japanese and Chinese names, so it's no big deal. English is unimportant.
