逆稲妻 Gyaku Inazuma (Reverse Lighting)

Osayo senpai (this woman samurai) first cut diagonally down up the right, then cut the mid-air mat in half diagonally down. After that, she cut one or two more cuts up and down.

Being able to get this many cuts accurately is proof that you are capable of maintaining a good posture as you swing, and you are able to cut where you are aiming for correctly. If you lack these skills, you will either fail cutting, or not have enough mat left to do multiple cuts.

With that in mind, let’s watch it again.
