Embrace Halberd Superiority. (Even a Kenjutsu Master Did)

People have asked for this video response, and I can see why. Seki Sensei experimenting with a halberd from a Kenjutsu perspective is fun and interesting to watch. Quite impressive too, to see how quickly he adapts to this weapon based on prior skill in the use of a staff (and I'm guessing Japanese polearms like naginata and yari too).
