		Kyujutsu (classical combat archery) was honed to a fine art during Japan’s feudal era.
		In addition to being experts at hitting stationary targets, Japanese warriors were also adept mounted archers, able to nail a target with pinpoint accuracy while in full gallop.
		In the 16th century, firearms were introduced and the military art of kyujutsu declined and eventually evolved into a sport called kyudo.

		It was during this time that the kyujutsu ryu, the schools of archery technique came into their own.
		He is credited with standardizing the training of kyujutsu which no doubt assured its continued growth and development, even into modern times.
		It was during the Feudal period that the construction of the Japanese bow reached its peak.

		Kyujutsu is the art of the bow as practiced by the warriors of Kinlu, and is usable with the Kinlu Yumi or Daikyu longbow and also with standard Alusian bows (Short, Long, etc).
		Kyujutsu ranks as Warrior for time and EP.
		It is not possible to add both Warrior and Kyujutsu bonuses at the same time, but should any bonuses from both skills be applicable the character gains the benefit of the greater.

	Kyudo
		Court nobles concentrated on ceremonial archery while the warrior class emphasized kyujutsu, the martial technique of using the bow in actual warfare.
		With the introduction of firearms the bow as a weapon was neglected and almost died out all together until Honda Toshizane, a kyudo instructor at Tokyo Imperial University, combined elements of the warrior style and the court ceremonial style into a hybrid style which ultimately became known as the Honda Ryu (Honda martial school).
		There were dozens of traditional schools before World War II and many of them survive today provoking endless debate as to the superiority of one over the other.

	Gaijin Ryu Jiu-Jitsu
		Kyujutsu (techniques of the bow and arrow), Kenjutsu (art of the sword), Bajutsu (horsemanship), Sojutsu (use of the spear) and Kumi-Uchi (grappling in armor) were among the basics.
		Kyujutsu became Kyudo, Iai-Jutsu became Iaido, Aiki-Jutsu became Aikido, and Jiu-Jitsu became Judo.
		There was a shift from warfare techniques to everyday life principles, with the spiritual side of the arts being more emphasized.

		As such kyudo is an amalgam of kyujutsu and ceremonial archery.
		During this time, kyujutsu briefly came into its own due to the genius of Heki Danjo Masatsugu (1443-1502).
		The practice of kyujutsu was the first to change; it became Kyudo, “the way of the bow,” and it was unique in that it was available to men and women.

	Kyudo
		This style found great favor with the general public and he is generally credited with saving Japanese Archery from oblivion.
		With the American occupation banning of all martial art instruction, traditional kyujutsu schools declined further.
		When the ban was lifted, Kyudo, as opposed to kyujutsu, became widely practiced and the Zen Nihon Kyudo Federation (All Japan Kyudo Federation) was established in 1953, publishing the standard kyudo textbook called the Kyohon, and overseeing Kyudo development both in Japan and internationally up to the present time.

		As in the menkyo system of licenses, titles were not standardized in the martial arts of Japan.
		Arts like Kyujutsu and Kenjutsu used these titles more and have kept them till this day.
		The truth is, there is a revival of these terms in the last century as a means to establish recognizable hierarchy in schools that have many dojo spread out over distances.

	BUJUSTU, BUDO, & BUSHIDO
		From the twelve century onwards, martial ryu developed mainly concentrating on sword (kenjutsu), bow and arrow (kyujutsu), spear (sojutsu), and halberd (naginatajutsu).
		This refers to the training in archery (kyujutsu), horsemanship (bajutsu), spear (sojutsu), sword (kenjutsu), swimming (suieijutsu), sword drawing (iaijutsu), short sword (kogusokujutsu), truncheon (juttejutsu), knife throwing (shurikenjutsu), halberd (naginatajutsu), jujutsu, rope binding (hojojutsu), espionage (ninjutsu), long and short staffs (bojutsu and jojutsu), sickle and chain (kusurigamajutsu), gunnery (hojutsu), and strategy (heihojutsu).
		It can be seen that the their training was intense and arduous, reflecting the fact that if their techniques failed on the battlefield, they would lose their life.

		Also, AFAIK, kyujutsu is not included in the Shinkage Ryu curriculum, so its presence on a purportedly "Shinkage Ryu" website is puzzling, to say the least.
		Regarding the kyujutsu shown on the website, I have been training in kyudo for 30 years, and I have made it a point to do my best to research traditional methods and schools.
		These schools are extremely well documented in Japan, if one cares to do even the most minimal research, and the modern masters of many of the recognized branches of the traditional schools still extant have contributed heavily to various books written about kyudo/kyujutsu and its development.

		These soldiers had mission to serve their feudal gentleman protecting the feudal in which he lived.
		The Bu Jutsu included a series of arts (kenjutsu, Kyujutsu, Jujutsu, etc.) in those that samurai was trained from its childhood in addition to painting, handwriting and much more aspects.
		He is doubtless that the art that it had supreme importance for samurai was the Kenjutsu or art of the swords (katanas) with which he fought in its battles.

	Alderac Entertainment Group :: View topic - Doubt about multiples attacks and I need an official answer
		I thought kyujutsu's "reach out and touch someone" ability was a great enough offset to not have techniques apply to it in the two previous editions.
		Thus applying the same logic to the Wasp School, if all techniques worked with a bow, there would have been no need to specifically state that the Wasp school techniques are specifically usable with a bow.
		Simply put, Kyujutsu uses reflexes and is an intuitive discipline.

		Kyujutsu is archery with a short Mongolian bow, and Bajutsu is a horse-riding martial art that involves archery, javelin, sword and naguinata.
		In Taiwan, we occasionally do Kyujutsu at our dojo, but have no chance to practice Bajutsu, because it entices trained horses and large open space for riding.
		Yoseikan Iaido draws its style from the Katori Shinto Ryu and Kashima Shin Ryu, two very old major schools in Japan.

		In 1919, Nishibuko became head of a major martial art college (Bujutsu Senmon Gakko) and immediately after taking charge, he ordered its name changed to Budo Senmon Gakko.
		Shortly afterwards, Dai Nippon Butokukai publications also began talking about budo, kendo, judo, and kyudo rather than bujutsu, gekken, jujutsu, and kyujutsu.
		The Ministry of Education followed suit in 1926, and in 1931 the word budo began to be used to describe compulsory ideological instruction in the Japanese public schools.

		Japan by that time had an advanced political and military structure and it would stand to reason some fighting systems of their own - not 100% unique systems, but ones that could be said to be Japanese.
		The bow - kyujutsu or kyudo in the modern period - has been documented as becoming more than just a hunting tool aroudn 250 BC.
		I woudn't have any problem saying the introduction of Buddhism had some sort of impact on Japanese arts.

		Kyudo, literally the "way of the bow", is the traditional Japanese form of archery.
		The roots of this martial art come from battlefield archery (kyujutsu) and from ceremonial court archery, which was formed by neoconfucianistic thought via Chinese influence.
		No further encompassing definition shall be attempted here, as there is a variety of schools and groups with different traditions and shooting techniques, and a large number of ideologies and viewpoints.

	[L5R 3e] 3e Shinjo Bushi School conversion! - RPGnet Forums
		I'm setting my recently started 3e L5R campaign right after Toturi's coronation, so, although I haven't any Unicorn PCs, quite a few NPCs (I'm using the "Code of Bushido" adventures as a kickstart for the campaign) are members of this school, which means I can't wait for the Lotus Book version.
		The skill list is the 2e one converted to 3e.
		I was torn between Yomanri and Horse Archery as the school's kyujutsu Emphasis, and ended up choosing the former because it's uniquely Unicorn-y.
