Tenkaichi Budokai


"Tenkaichi Budokai" is written completely in kanji; if we separate the romaji according to each kanji, it would look like this: "Ten Kai Chi Bu Do Kai"


For those with even rudimentry Japanese, you should be able to recognize that "Ichi" means "one." Here's a word-by-word translation:


Ten - Sky, Heaven
Kai - Beneath, under
Chi - (Number) One
Bu - Martial Arts, fighting technique
Do - Way of
Kai - Meeting


"Tenka" (Under heaven) is used to refer to "the world," as everything in this world is beneath the skies / under heaven.


"Budo" means martial arts, or "the way (art) of fighting."


Putting the rest together, a fairly concise translation of "Tenkaichi Budokai" would be "The World's Best Martial Artist Tournament."
