Japanese anime kabaddi : https://9anime.to/watch/burning-kabaddi.lwqz/ep-1
Have you hear about Kabaddi Sport? If you haven't , this is also my first time hearing about the games when i was watching its anime in 9anime. At first , i thought it just a kid sport because , yeah anime is suppose to be watch by the kids. And when see the anime sometimes i feel ewww when their holding hand to do the chain defends , and to see man holding hand is something make me uncomfortable. That is also what happen to main character , Tatsuya Yoigoshi feeling when he saw it . That feeling make he dont want to become defender for the team.
As the story grew , i realize that kabaddi is not just a simple game. Its seem simple but my imagination show me that this is the pure game in term of fighting as raider and defender . The rules is simple , the raider has to touch the defender and reach home safely . While the defender prevent for being touch / they call struggle in so the raider didnt get any point or if they being touch , they have to make sure the raider didnt get home.
In this game i see there is a lot variety of raider and defender . The wild movement show how the fighter suppose to be . This games actually has been modified into many game that we have play since childhood but not as wild as kabaddi. As i read through internet, i found out this is real game that has been play in international sport.
