There is a time limit for edits on how long after you post. Complete can explain in more detail.

Oh, I don't like that feature

[complete]

I didn't even know about the time limit but it's possible.

Can you try editing your old post and let me know what it says.

[sannin227]

No, it just takes away the button that gives me the option to edit, it doesn't say something like "you cannot edit this at this time."

Atleast, I thought there was a time limit. It might be until someone else posts.

They used ropes...

That and jumping arts, but as my old sensei used to say "Allot of ninjitsu is smoke and mirrors, look the wrong way or don't see the attack and it doesn't matter how good you can fight."

My neighbor's kid has all these books on ninjitsu, and goes tree climbing in his ninja-gi (he's 14). One day he was telling me about his newest ninjitsu book and how great it was, and when he showed it to me I was surprised it was mine! lol

Haven't told him I wrote it yet, or that that I know ninjitsu. As for shooting the ninja out of trees, watch out some ninja use guns! lol

The two last practiced styles of Koga Ryu ninjutsu in Japan were Koga Ryu Wada-Ha Ninjutsu as practiced by Seiko Fujita. In 1937 Seiko Fujita was the instructor to the Japanese Special Forces at the School of Espionage in Nakano Japan. In the beginning of World War 2 Fujita lead a 2000 man guarrilla operation with no support in Southern China & Burma. These commandos were so effective they lead to the birth of the US Army Special Forces. Only 17 of Fujita's 2000 survived including himself.

Seiko Fujita was a Soke in Shurikenjutsu, Jojutsu and Nanban Sato Ryu Kenpo, was well as cross training in several martial arts such as Okinawan Karate, Judo, Aikido and various styles of Jujutsu/Taijutsu. Seiko Fujita reformed his Ninjutsu system upon his return as instructor in Nakano and called his new system Koga ha Sato Ryu Ninjutsu. A former commando under Seiko Fujita's charge and one of the orginional students at Nakano by the family name of Kawagashi (sp?) repalced him as the chief instructor of the Japanese Special Forces.

Seiko Fujita left all his material on Martial Arts to the Japanese Musiums and reportedly left his Ninjutsu secrets to the Japanese Government as the docturines set forth at Nakano. More so, when WW2 ended the allied forces studied allot of the Japanese Experiments with martial arts and intelligence gathering to add to their own knowledge.

It is from Seiko Fujita's Ninjutsu system that the Japanese Special Forces and Spies draw their knowledge and experience, these lessons adapted by the Allied is where the British SAS first claimed their status as the first westerns to study Ninjutsu.

Would you tell me the title? I'd like to read your book.

Draven actually has his own online publishing company. I am unsure, but I don't think his books are in stores (although Drave would be a better source on this). Look at his signature for the link.

[Militis]

The link doesn't work.

Strange... the link used to work. I've seen the site, but now it doesn't even show up on google searches. (In fact, the only reference to those exact words link back to a post on this forum.) Draven, care to shed some light on this?

[Draven]

The site is down, need money to keep it up and don't have any. I'm in a court battle right now. As for the book, I wrote Black Dragon Ninjitsu, Street Focus Jujitsu, and several others. Some of my books are sold at from my company (still running just not on the net for a while) and at Dojo Press .
