Do you think sparring like an cheesy anime character is lame. I said yes, but he says no.

[chinzovsmarth]

Uhh, NO.

Well, that all depends. SPARRING is completely forgivable, if you've trained with weapons and/or unarmed combat. But sparring like Naruto peeps is kind of pointless. :/

Like, I've taken martial arts classes, so if I use those to spar at least I am making correct movements and actual attacks. I mean, Naruto or Dragonball Z? XD Their "attacks" are just magical, scripted battles. In a real battle, you have to improv. So... Sparring, as said, is pointless if you don't know how to fight.

Completely lame. However, really entertaining. And if you're entertained, who cares if it's lame?

lol, I'm a first degree black-belt in Songham Taekwondo, so I've done real sparring, and I have to say, much more fun than anime style sparring (I do that with my brother all the time)

[kazuken]

Yeah, I meant sparring like Naruto.
