I was under the impression that budo referred specifically to the modern martial arts, while the traditional ones were bujutsu and the "way of the warrior" was bushido. Gwalla | Talk 23:23, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Gendai budo is the term for the modern budo arts. Some people stress that the old arts are "jutsu" and the modern "do" but others see the distinction as fairly newly invented and exaggerated.Habj 13:35, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Thinking about it, we could alter "koryu" to "koryu bujutsu". Habj 13:37, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
And thinking again, these two sentenses sounds more like bushido than budo to me: 'Budo more correctly represents a discipline and way of life specific to the idealized Japanese warrior. It is distinguished by many terms from the actual technical skills and techniques of the warrior, such as Bujutsu ("Warrior's Artistry" or "Warrior's Skill") Kyudo ("The Way of the Bow"), Kendo and Kenjutsu ("Way of the Sword" and "Sword Artistry" or "Sword Skill").'
As far as I know, there is indeed a distinction between budo and bushido; to define budo as the Japanese term for 'martial arts' is, I think, not correct. Budo is more about the ethics and morals, the way of life of the Japanese warrior class. Kars 21:07, 21 Nov 2005 (GMT+1)
Not sure what I would like to replace them with, though. Habj 22:12, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I attempted to fix the problem. Still feels a bit clumsy to me.Peter Rehse 06:06, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
