It would seem that WKO has a good PR and Advertising team backing the organization. Does WKO have a contract with a local advertising/pr group in Japan? Or Do they have their own team within WKO?

I think Blitz is really bad. Yes, every now and then there is a good article, but mostly it's just a place for people to advertise martial arts equipment. I had about five issues of Blitz (2006 issues) and in every one of them the same advertisement appeared, which went something like this:

"Hi, I'm _______ and I've finally developed a method of combat that is truly effective!!! Forget karate, TKD and all that other traditional garbage, I teach you what really works! Anybody who's ever done karate knows its weakness: that you only learn to fight people from your style. Go to a different dojo and your skills are worthless!

That's right, I'm calling all you so called "masters" nothing but phonies! Now I know I'm stepping on a lot of toes here but I don't care! I fear NO MAN!"

This guy literally went on for a page like this, because he crammed a full page of tiny text into his little ad slot. I threw away all my copies of Blitz in disgust so I can't reproduce the ad word for word, not that I'd waste my time in doing so. My point is consider why a martial arts magazine would allow an ad like this into its pages, and don't say revenue because Blitz has plenty of it.

Blitz is a popularity contest, not a magazine to be taken seriously by anyone over 13 years of age.

World Karate October



The special theme of this issue is "Gedan Mawashi Geri". Fighters interviewed include (all Sensei/Shihan):
Ichimura Naoki, Tanaka Kentaro, Yamada Masatoshi (the teacher of the legendary "Josai" fighters), Tamura Yoshihiro, Aoki Hidenori (looking at gedan geri from a medical point of view, how to toughen the shin safely and how to treat the pain).



There is also a report of the Sohonbu summer camp.
