The Ramen Girl


Currently showing on Tubi, I believe the movie “The Ramen Girl” comes closest to what I believe was taught for old time Okinawan karate. The movie is not about karate. It is about a young woman’s journey to become a traditional Ramen Chief.

 

Her journey is compounded by her life being a mess, and of course she does not really understand Japanese. There are many ways to interpret the movie, however to me it touches the essence of the old journey to understand what true karate should be.

Best movie on waza that ever existed without one karate move.
