The white one I got when I was 16.

Cool, I love swords. Yours look good.

Thanks. If you want to I can show you myself in a few fighting positions?! :D

Uhh, ok sure. :)

Nice swords.. How much did they cost? Are they actually real swords !?! :o

Yeah, I'd think so...... :ohwell:

That'd be grrrrreat! ;)

Awesome! :) Now can we see you in a pose? Heck why don't you do the ones like Ryu does in Ninja Gaiden Xbox version?

He's awesome..

What does Ryo do? I am going to make some more with my best friend.
Here is one..

Oh and yes my swords are real :)

The white one costed 120 DM and the black I bought later 120 Euro

Cool I likes.

I do alot of things... Atleast I'd like to think so.... :P



Very nice swords, Leo2!

I love the black gi too! You look really cool and badass in that pose!



I have a black gi as well! :D

What art style do you do, Leo2?

Woah, that's awesome. I wish I had a sword. I have three pocketknives :tlol: but unfortunately those aren't as cool.

My friend has what I think she said was a katana. Its handle is black and red, and it rocks.

cool swords guys! Ryo please show us a pic of you in your gi wielding your swords!! we wanna see it!! :D

Hehe thank you all. I didn't notice that you already posted. Ryo I do ninjutsu. :) and your outfit looks cool. Please show a pic of yours if you want to.

Here are two other pics. If you want to see.. ?! :D

You look incredibly awesome, Leo2!

You make Leonardo proud. ;)

Did you take these pics today?




Oh, and NeoBix, that's still something I have yet to do.

Thank you Ryo, very nice :)

I made them last friday with my best friend and have many others.

I can show you my favourites if you want to and if it's not to boring?!

MN I am sure a black and red handle looks great, too. Mine are blue because it's my favourite color and usually these tapes are used for tennis rackets :P

Leo the 2nd, I don't mean this to be offensive in any way, but are you a boy or a girl? It's just kinda hard to tell because the photos are kinda small, and the long hair is throwing me off. :P

She's a girl obviously.

I think you need to get a new monitor, NeoBix.




I would love to see more pics, Leo2! You look really cool. :D

I feel honored Ryo *bows* Thanks.
Don't worry Neobix. Yes I am a girl. Didn't ya know, I am the female clone of Leonardo?! :) And I thought, too the pics are a little bit small, but if I don't shorten them they are too big.

I will try...

Cool, I got to get me some swords. I got a pair of Sai for 15 bucks.

Sai are great, too but I think they wouldn't fit me. Please show your sais Weapon X, if you want to.

I would If I had my digital camera. :ohwell:

Ooh :( Perhaps a friend has got one and could make some photos of yours in fighting positions, too !?

No, unfortunatley... :|

Very cool photo, Leo2! You have that "Leo" stance. :D


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...Leo2andLeo.jpg

BOAH you are right Ryo :D I stood like that automatically because the swords became very heavy after a while holding them in the air. Looks very awesome.

I will post more pics soon :)

I loooooove swords! They're so gorgeous. (And I love Leo2's hair ;) )

Ryo, what style do you use?

Leo2 and Ryo, have you guys tried other styles and if so which do you like best and why? Do you work primarily with swords or do you do a lot of bare hand/foot work too?

I've wanted to get into martial arts forever, but my parents wouldn't let me....and when I got to college there wasn't anywhere to take ANYTHING! Gah... but I have student teaching my last semester in a different town and am hoping to finally get some training. I'm not sure which style I want to go for.... although maybe there will only be one place to learn and I won't have much of a choice ;p

Two of my friends did kenjitsu and really liked it, but I think that was primarily sword stuff and as much as I'd like to learn that I want to learn more practical stuff as well--since I don't always carry a sword around ;p

My katana, it's sheath, and my bokken. I have a few daggers and knives too--my rollock is my baby!

I also have an elite ninja force. :shredder:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...Room/elite.jpg

Ooh! That sword is beautiful. I love the bokken too. I absolutly adore bokkens. I have quite a collection of them. :D

Yes, swords are very beautiful weapons.
It's really awesome that Leo not only has the deadliest weapons out of the four, but the most beautiful too. They really give Leo a presence of elegance and power. ^_^


What style do I do? I train in the art of Budo Ninpo Taijutsu. It's quite versatile. There's hand-to-hand combat, advanced movement training, weapons training, ki training, survival training, first aid, and some espionage training too.
It's quite a package. :)

I did a bit of karate in summer camp when I was a kid. It was good, but I very much like the style I practice in now. ...Though I wish I was able to do it more often. :ohwell:


I suggest you try to find a dojo that teaches Budo Ninpo Taijutsu. You'll get exactly what you want. :)



Oh, and awesome Elite Ninja Force! I so wish I had something like that in my room! :D

I present an innocuous query and you insult the quality of my monitor, Ryo? You presumptuous fool! How dare you? I used to think you were cool, but now I see why certain people despise you and your immaturity on these boards. Grow up... please.

Moreover, I've known lots of males with long hair who could easily be mistaken for girls from far away, so bite me, Ryo. It was in no way an insult to Leo the 2nd, and you took it upon yourself to assume too much and try to defend her from something that she didn't need to be defended from. So congratulations, "hero", you just made yourself look really dumb.

As a side not, my monitor is an $800 21" Sony... better than yours I'm sure, Ryo.

By the way, Leo the 2nd, thank you for posting that bigger, up-close photo of yourself. You are VERY pretty, and I'm glad that you are at least mature enough to answer my harmless question without insulting me, unlike Ryo.

You look badass in that gi and wielding those sweet blades. You got the Leonardo pose down pat! :) Keep up the sword practice! 8)

Sweet! Those are cool, L2. I want to get myself a pair of katana one day, and take martial arts training to use them.

Neo, was it really necessary for you to attack Ryo like that?

NeoBix, You're taking what I said far too personal. Some people would simply lightly laugh from my response and take it as just innocent wit.

You however seem very sensitive of how people refer to your hardware.
That or you have some problem with me and felt the need to attack me and used what I said as an excuse to do so.

Oh, and I had no idea that certain people dispise me...
I'm intrigued to know what the reason or reasons could possibly be.
Apparently, one of the reasons may be "immaturity" as you said... :roll:

"Thou art not allowed to ask, Ry-oh, thou shalt feel despised and sorry for thee" :evilgrin:

;) :lol:

Yeah, well, next time Ryo you should make it crystal clear that you're joking when you say something like that, instead of trying to make someone (in this case, me) look like the proverbial bad guy.

I pointed out that I meant no offense towards Leo the 2nd in the post where I asked if she was a boy or a girl and then you go and make some crack about how my monitor is broken, as if I had trouble seeing the photos in the first place.

Next time, try to find a more tactful way to make a joke, because the person you make the joke about might not find it as hilarious as you apparently consider it to be.

Please don't argue you two :( You both are so nice.

Thank you all for your nice comments.

And Ryo I do exactly the same:Budo Ninpo Taijutsu and at first we learn hand-to-hand-combat to get a basis. Later as soon as we are safer in these techniques we do more with weapons.
Because I trained karate many years ago I am a little bit stiff but my sensei said in the course of time it will be better.
He meant I would be dedicated to do ninjutsu and it was an honor to me. :)

Oh and Zelda, very beautyful sword. I like it.

I'm scared of swords...I don't trust myself not to be stupid with them and hurt myself haha That's awesome though ^_^ props for learning how to use them

I guess I should have put one of these " :P " in that post, huh?

Eitherway, I'm glad you understand. Yeah, it was a crack, and I certainly didn't say it because I dislike you or anything like that. I thought that I could joke around with you. I'm sorry. Some people are more sensitive than others, and I need to be aware of that. Not that sensitivity is a bad thing. I'm quite sensitive myself.



Hey, hey! That is awesome! I don't think I ever knew anyone from the Technodrome who does that style as well. Totally awesome! :D

That totally exlpains why you have a black gi and why you train with swords. ^_^

Real training with swords will be a little bit later and i can't wait to train with them :D

Here an other one I like :lol:

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y21...r/SIMG2304.jpg

Look in my eyes, baby. Please don't take notice from my askew nose ;)

Another great pic! :D

You look like you're ready to kill. ;) :P


Now, how about one with you slicing pizza? :lol:

Looking at them closer, you really have nice swords. They really look like the swords Leo has in the new series. Awesome. :)

Yeah right or a watermelon :D
I am going to make more pics so I can show you my nice japanese cards hanging from the wall with the swords under it.

Radical, L.II - these red eyes make a spooky "possesed warrior" effect.

"BLOOD!" :lol:
