This really should require no explanation: It's boxing, plain and simple.
Caster
Casters are an unusual projectile weapon that Jake Hazuki created. Casters come in a variety of numbers and uses.
Crane Kick
This technique was taken from "The Karate Kid." If used properly, it is impossible to block. The user lifts both arms out to the side, leaving the wrists dangling, and brings one leg perpendicular to the body, curling it. He then brings the other leg out to a head-height kick, sending the other leg down to support himself and snapping both arms down then back up for power.
Dai Ryu Satsu Ha
A Tatsu no Toki Nokoe Ha technique, the Dai Ryu Satsu Ha combines the power of fire and water to create a forceful whirl-wind in the shape of the dragon. It has moderate power compared with other techniques of the school, but requires precise, experienced handling.
Dobu no Kami Ha
The Dobu no Kami Ha is one of the most powerful techniques of the Tatsu no Toki Nokoe Ha, assuming it is used by the right person. It is used to dramatically increase one's battle aura by drawing on the energy of his excitement. When used, the user is engulfed by potent, green ki.
Earth Stance
This is one of the four stances of ninjutsu. It is used in situations where one must fight many, or must prevent passage. The user stands erect, arms hanging limply at his side. The eyes must focus on nothing. Techniques launched from the earth stance are brutal and are designed to disable or kill any assualter in minimal time. It draws power from the earth element and is based in the emotions of determination and ignorance.
Explosion Spell
This spell is what it sounds like; it causes an explosion.
Fire Stance
This is one of the four stances of Ninjutsu. The user spaces the feet shoulder length apart, one in front of the other. The forward-most foot faces forward, while the back foot faces to the side. The body is at a slight angle from the forward direction. The arms are crossed over the chest, fists facing upward, hind arm over forward arm. This stance is used for when a relentless charge is in order. It is associated with the element of fire and the emotions of anger and pleasure.

Happy Yen Punch
The Happy Yen Punch is based on the tenents of motion, power, and knuckles. In otherwords, it's a strong punch given a fancy name.
Heaven's Wrath-Quake with Fear
Heaven's Wrath techniques are exclusively the power of demons- and Quake with Fear is one of the most powerful ones. It uses the pure rage that demons have inside of them, and increases that rage ten-fold with the fires of hell. The resultant inferno can melt through any known metal.
Heavy Fist
The Heavy Fist is a technique that boosts the users aura. It is fueled by stagnant emotions such as depression and loathing, and acts by transferring the ki of these emotions to the target. Visually, it looks as if dark light or shadows are flowing from the user.
Hogwarts

Horseback Stance
The horseback stance is based in karate, and differs little from the earth stance of ninjutsu. Feet both point forward, a little more than shoulder-length apart. Wrists are placed next to the waist, hands balled in fists. The horseback stance is for preventing an opponent to pass. It's element is earth and it is based in the emotions of determination and ignorance.

Kenjutsu
The Japanese art of fencing. This is the combat style that the samurai used. It is very rare to find a school of actual kenjutsu now, but they do exist. Usually they are very selective in who they take on as students.

Tatsu Ken
This is one of the Tatsu no Toki Nokoe Ha's ultimate technique. While it is similar to the Dobu no Kami Ha, it differs in that it relies on stored energy, turning the body into the embodiment of effeciency.
Tatsu no Toki Nokoe Ha
Tatsu no Toki Nokoe Ha is a little-known school of martial arts that holds many powerful techniques. It is handed down from generation to generation, taking on no non-familial students. For this reason, there are very few practitioners of this art.

Tiger Stance
This stance is featured in pretty much every Japanese martial arts. For example, it is also one of the four Ninjutsu stances as the Water Stance. The user places his feet shoulder-length apart, putting one in front of each other at somewhat of an angle. The arms are bent so that the fingers face forward, and the hand are held palm-open, facing each other. This stance is a mix between defense and offense, and lies in drawing out an opening in one's opponent. It is based on the element of water and the emotions of flexibility and contentedness.
