"The exercising of weapons putteth away aches, griefs, and diseases, it increaseth strength and sharpeneth the wits, it giveth a perfect judgment, it expelleth melancholy, choleric, and evil conceits, it keepeth a man in breath, in perfect healthe, and long life." – George Silver (1599)

I think it is great that, just as Americans do kendo and Asian martial arts, here we have Japanese fighting in plate-mail. Avalon an Japanese offshoot of the SCA.
The sword freeing itself from historical and ethnic boundaries will lead to a functional art (at least that’s what Mu Ryu wants).
