Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto Ryu is one of the few old bujitsu schools, it is a national treasure in Japan
You don't do it for sports or competition nor for selfdefence
It really is a BU jitsu in the sense that a lot of the techniques are battleground techniques and keep in mind the armor worn by samurai
their Kata are very dynamic and are almost all sword agains either also sword or one of the other weapons
The Iai jutsu is fast and effective compared to ZNK Iaido

Now do you think that someone interested in that would instead go for GJJ?


Personally, I don't think so
