How many of you beside being toku fans are also fan of Kung fu or
Wuxia
fan? For those of you that don't know what Wuxia is, how many of you watch Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon or any Shaw Bros kung fu film?
That video above is from Shaw Bros's 1981 film,
Sword Stained with Royal Blood
(which in turned was based on
a book
by a very famous Wuxia author, Jin Yong)
I know some people that have compared Toku to Wuxia because of the fantasy martial art fighting like in the case of
Super Inframan
from Shaw Bros.
But is it really fair to compare this fight scene from Zyuranger:
to let say this fight scene from the 2006 TV drama from China,
Return of the Condor Heroes
:
Yeah, Wuxia and Toku do share a lot in common when it comes to costume fighter, and fantasy martial arts.
Would any toku fan considered these fight scene from Wuxia TV drama from China as toku also, like these:
So what do you think, do Toku and Wuxia be considered under the same umbrella term when it comes to fantasy martial arts?
