Uchidachi:
tombo – kirisage – torii – tombo
Shidachi:
mukei – massugu – mukei – kiriage – menuchi – massugu – mukei
In Ranko we chose to use seigan no kurai, to await the attack and give uchidachi a target for his attack. In Matsukaze we choose to take mukei no kurai, with the sword pointing under uchidachi's knees. Here uchidachi gets his entire upper body as a target and when he launches his strike from tombo no kurai, shidachi steps diagonally to the right with his right or left leg and simultaneously slashes kiriage towards his unprotected body.
At the end of the step, shidachi follows with the other leg so that the feet come close together, rotates the body counterclockwise and quickly steps forward towards uchidachi and slashes menuchi (nikiri) towards his head, which is intercepted with torii no kurai.
Uchidachi returns to the starting position in tombo no kurai; shidachi in massugu no kurai and finishes in mukei no kurai.
