Darnit so close again. Come on Hino-san, kiss the girl already. Man this manga is such a tease.
And what kind of logic is: "What's the point of practicing self defence techniques, if you don't use them"? Imagine if people thought that way about nuclear weapons!
It’s perfectly good logic. Just because you know self defense techniques doesn’t mean you’ll be able to make use of them in a dangerous situation. Most people panic and can’t think straight. Martial artists train until their techniques become instinctual so that they aren’t distracted by trying to think about how to perform them mid fight.
The ideal mind set for defensive martial arts, nuclear weapons, and hand guns, for that matter, is to hope to never need to use them. You're suppose to exhaust every other possibility, before resorting to violence. To have the mind set, why have them, if you're not going to use them. is just looking for trouble.
As for martial arts training, sure you want to train to the level that the moves become instinctual, but I don't think M.A. instructors are sending there students into actual street brawls, to achieve that.
I think we’re understanding what she said in different ways. As I understood it she essentially said that just having the knowledge is pointless if you can’t actually make use of it when you need to. An hour isn’t enough to time to be able to effectively learn self defense techniques to the point of being able to put them to use in a dangerous situation. Sure being able to solve the issue without violence would be ideal, but every situation is different. Sometimes self defense is necessary. M.A. instructors don’t send their students into street brawls, but they do have spars.
