Raoh's statement quite literally means that the stance and Tenha Kossatsu are one and the same, he calls the stance "the hidden secret technique", the translation for the stance's name is "stance of celestial destruction" and the beam-shooting is called "EXECUTION of celestial destruction", saying that the stance could exist by itself without the tenha kassatsu part is ridiculous, why would they have a stance that does literally nothing as an hidden secret technique?That's the Tenha Stance, not the Tenha Kassatsu. The tenha stance has a different finality than the Tenha Kassatsu.
yeah but it looks nothing like Ken's, it also doesn't come from the stance, soooo?Kasumi literally says "This is a secret technique of Hokuto Shinken: Tenha Kassatsu" and does the exact same thing that Ken's tenha kassatsu does which is striking the opponent's pressure points without needing to touch them, the only minor diference is that Kasumi choosed to only use one finger instead of them all but the techniques still the same.
what I'm saying is that, we have pretty definitive evidence of Tenha Kassatsu already being a thing way before Kasumi, we see Kasumi use a variation of the technique and like, if they wanted to show that Kasumi invented Tenha Kossatsu, why the hell would they have him use a variant and not just the original thing (it's not just a different name, it has a whole additional step)? If this scene didn't exist then maybe I'd agree with you.Ken should absolutely be able to use that version Tenha Kassatsu, and Kasumi can do Ken's version as well, they are absolutely masters of the same martial art for God sake. If we start to nitpick minor differences bewteen the mangas we will end up with no scaling whatsover. things like we never saw Kasumi use the Kento Shadan or the Toshin no Aura, so he shouldn't have it, he should not have Nanto as well since we never saw him using, we also never saw Ken using Hokuto Shinhozan so shouldn't have it, or Ken and Kasumi MT are portrayed different from each other so they should not share the same abillities the same thing with their Ujo Mosho Ha, or their rituals are different so Kasumi should not have imunnity to pressure points and Ken should not have summoning. If we do this we are ignoring the fact that the WOG said they're are equals.
I'm whatever on Kasumi knowing Nanto or not.
Them being equal doesn't mean that they must know the same shit, the statement is strictly about strength
no, the guidebook says that other lives ARE CONTAINED but Ken only EXPERIENCED Shuken's, which is coincidentally what's also stated 2 times in the manga itselfif it includes the other successors too he saw thei lives as well. and yeah in the OG manga they only mention Shuken, that's why i'm arguing that it was retconned
