Karate Kata Applications
If you are looking for your first book that introduces you into the applications (Bunkai) and meaning behind the techniques in your (Shotokan) Karate Katas then this is it. But the emphasis lies on ‘introduction’.
It is well described and clearly documented with pictures. The introductory nature come with the basic application scenarios and techniques that are covered. Mostly simple block/counter-attack scenarios.
This is not your book if you are looking for advanced Kata applications, but good if you are on your way to black belt.
