Yeah, but I'm actually talking about a real philosophy of physical and mental training for combat to do the one strike, one kill. Like, it's literally the reason why samurai of old dress and wield their katana the way they do. War time had them wear the heavy armors as the infantry, outside of actual war though, most wore things like hakamas to conceal their footwork against their opponent. A stealth practice designed to hide your advancement until it's too late for your enemy to notice (makes me think the same train of thought with THF or NIN/ROG, except you're actually visible to them as a whole lol).
