White Demon Kempo/Trivia

Influences
There are several martial arts that influence White Demon Kempo. These style are all well known and powerful real life martial arts that i consider my personal favirotes, these styles are:
 * Tae Kwon Do: Known for it's devastating and dynamic kicks
 * Hapkido: A fusion of Aiki-jujitsu and Ancient Korean martial arts such as Taekkyon and Tang Soo Do. The style is known for it's powerful and effective joint manipulation and throws as well as the iconic kicks of most Korean martial arts.
 * Chinese Martial Arts: Kung Fu to the adverage joe, Zero mainly uses Five Animals Kung Fu which includes Tiger, Crane, Leopard, Dragon and Snake. But he uses almost all the style under the name Kung Fu to make the style hard to predict.
 * Capoeria: A Brizilian Martial Art know for it's dance like techniques and acrobatics. The style was made by African slave who were banned from practising their native martial arts by their Brizilian owners so they used their native music and turned their fighting style to what looked like a dance. The style while the original style doesn't feature many punches it does use slaps to shock opponants. Sparring in this style is light to no contact.
 * Ninjutsu: The martial arts used by The Ninja of Feaudal Japan, this style invovle strikes similar to karate and the application of stealth and distraction to kll the target. However most modern styles have lost the old traditions have become more like karate focusing on either the unarmed (Taijutsu) techniques or armed techniques (Kenjutsu, Sojutsu etc).
 * Aikido: A style made famous by the actor Steven Seagal. The style was created from Aiki-Jutsu and utilizes subtle but effective throws and joint locks to subdue the opponant. The impressive thing about this style is that a experienced practitioner can throw around up to 5 opponants aroundw ith little effort.
 * Muay Thai: A brutal style of kickboxing made in Thailand. It uses knees, fists, feet and elbows gving it the alias The Art of Eight Limbs. The style is known for being very direct and brutal leaving the unlicky victim with multiple broken bones and painful bruses.

The style also has element of aspects of Karate and Judo. But as these style as similar to Ninjutsu (in taijutsu standards) and Aikido (throws) they are hard to spot.

Weapon wise Zero uses a fusion of classical fencing making good use of the accurate thrusts and slashes as well as the parries and deflection capabilities. He also uses chinese sword techniques used in chinese martial arts allowing for a high amount of acrobatic and dynamic attacks. On top of those style Zero uese Kenjutsu for it's direct and basic techniques allowing for swift and powerful two handed cuts.
