You can't help but trip with medial femur rotation.

thing is though your hands would probably calcified er whatever it was which would probably help with sword catching- but, what do i know? i haven't even heard of this anime before so, go fig.

I'll give you that they didn't test with a Chinese broadsword, but still, the downward force and edge of the blade, the limited strength of the wrist from that position, and the fleshy sponge texture of the palm simply doesn't allow for it.

The theory is to catch the blade for a split-second and instead of stopping the force, to revert it in another direction and disarm the opponent, but even then that's not realistically possible.

The way Chouhi is blocking the sword is more realistic.

Of course, Guan Yu was a man, and there were no french maids in ancient China, so my argument is moot.

Mythbusters don't prove everything to full extant. There is chances of catching swords if your experienced enough.

You can't catch a sword with your hands, they proved it on Mythbusters.

But regardless, Kan'u is epic, Bachou on shrooms is epic too, and Chouhi is my loli of the month.

Any anime where someone trips shrooms is automatically a winner.
