Shiranui-Gata (不知火 (しらぬい) (がた) Shiranuigata?) is a taijutsu technique used by Maki Zenin.

Description

Shiranui-Gata is a stance normally assumed by sumo wrestlers during the opening ceremony. The user assumes the stance by squatting with their head forward and arms extended outward in both directions.

Usage

Maki attempted to use this technique to stop Naoya Zenin's supersonic movements. She provoked her opponent to come at her head-on, willing to withstand his attack even if it broke her ribs. However, Naoya saw through her tactics and decided not charge her straight on.[1]

Trivia

  • The specific posture of Shiranui-Gata is a traditional and ceremonial pose with specific movements and gestures. Performed mostly by Yokozuna, the highest rank of a sumo wrestler, Shiranui-Gata consists of offensive moves and is said to symbolize aggression.
  • The main elements of the Shiranui-Gata are as follows:
    • Hands on Knees: The wrestler bends his knees slightly and places his open palms on the upper part of his knees.
    • Bent Body: The upper body is slightly leaned forward with the back slightly arched.
    • Head Tilt: The wrestler tilts his head downwards, often with a serene and focused expression.
    • Slow Movement: The wrestler moves deliberately and slowly, with a dignified and elegant manner, maintaining a solemn atmosphere.
  • The Shiranui-Gata is known for its refined and ghostly appearance, which is also derived from it's name ('Shiranui' being a term for an optical or supernatural phenomenon and 'Gata' meaning stance).
