What's an Izuna Drop?

Izuna Drop

The Izuna Drop's origin began in the 1969 manga called Ninpu Kamui Gaiden OP (The Legend of Kamui). Kamui learned this move from watching birds attack each other. Many fictional ninja and/or video game characters use Kamui's move to this day, such as Vega (Street Fighter), Ryu Hayabusa (Dead or Alive / Ninja Gaiden), and Kage-Maru (Virtua Fighter).

For those of you out there that have always had a thing for Guy, but didn't know why... maybe it's for the same reason you hate Vega? Regardless, it must be because of their mad Izuna skills!

Do you still find yourself constantly asking, "Did Rock Lee really whoop Sasuke that badly, in the earlier episodes... how did he do that again?"

Well, ask no more. Marvel at the pure amazement, and again if you don't already know, enlighten yourselves all about the wonderful world of Izuna Drops!!!

Man, seriously, I really wish I could see someone do this in RL. Just think about how awesome it'd be to see a drunken bar brawl end with one duder giving the other duder a rundown of his Izuna technique!
