When you Google "In what films has Sonny {Sunny} Chiba appeared ?" ~~ the first is "The Street Fighter"-- above the action shot are the words : "If you gotta fight, fight Dirty" . I smirked when I read it. I hammered this into my Students : >>Above all else, Our Study of Sword generates 'Weapons ConsciousNess' -- if you find yourself about to be assaulted LOOK FOR A WEAPON ! << By Definition, if you are in a `Street Fight` THERE ARE NO RULES OF HONOR NOR INTEGRITY . Self Defense has as its `Primary` SURVIVAL;;; here there can be NO Advantage to Fighting "Fair". Martial Arts Cinema is laden with innumerable "Street Fights" where hostiles seek not just submission but Destruction, a Destruction [that] does not end with "hobble" but with "Cripple"---a Destruction that may cause LIFETIME immobility {and don't forget the Death thing}.
