Tsunami is coming, but maybe we won't have big damage.
I really want to know the follow-up report of this news "Samurai helped cops in London". I suppose he just had a wooden sword (if he has a real one, it could be a weapons violation). So he learned "Kendo"?. Hmm mystery.
I don't know if he learned Kendo or Japanese Budo/Bujutsu. But sometimes foreign people who learn it have a good spirit which Japanese guys lost, I think. "Eigo de shabera night" (Talking in English tonight) is an English learning TV show. Last time, a Japanese lady and foreign guys talked about "Japanese guys". (this link will break soon, let me know when it happens. I will fix it) Those discussions are called Kurofune remix (Black ship remix) which is named after the Kurofune episode in Japan's history. They had such a discussion before, they are all interesting, check it out. Kurofune 1. Kurofune2.
Hi there
I didnot have any follow up info. Anybody has?

Probably some Kill Bill fan who grabbed his replica and tried to be a hero.

I think it was a wooden sword.
I don't think somebody who has a real samurai sword would help the cops out or something.
