hello there everyone,
bassically i just love samurai, and there this manga called Samurai X
in this manga theres this one character called Seta Sōjirō and As a master swordsman of his own style, Sōjirō's abilities have earned him the nickname of Tenken (天剣 Ten meaning Heaven and Ken meaning Sword, "Tenken" means swordsmanship of natural endowments). bassically because of his speed.He has this specific technique called shukuchi. His shukuchi utilizes such powerful speed that, to an observer, it appears that the distance between the two fighters has shrunk (hence the name shukuchi, which means "reduced earth").

Sōjirō states that theres "three steps below shukuchi. While moving at the speed his shukuchi utilizes, the only thing that can be seen is Sōjirō's footsteps ripping through the tatami mats.
Which can be seen here:

a little more explanation on the technique:

During "one step below shukuchi", he is able to attack from an omni-directional angle, utilizing not only horizontal but veritical space.

and here:

While performing true shukuchi, he completely disappears and cannot be seen, even by Kenshin.When performing the true shukuchi sojiro Combines the true speed of shukuchi with the Battōjutsu (which is the same thing as Iajutsu , iado), he has created his only named technique, Shuntensatsu (瞬天殺?, lit. "Instant Heaven Kill"), meaning "immediate killing by heaven's sword". It is named this because the speed behind the attack is so swift that the opponent dies instantly before falling to the floor.
which can be seen here:

3)http://image.onemanga.com/006/mangas...0134/10-11.jpg

Any ideas on how this can be stat?
