Kata # 4
Enemy from behind. 

Feeling an attack is imminent from the rear the swordsman looks and turns towards the rear drawing his blade at the same time. While turning the blade protects his head, but is quickly moved into yodan no game from where the swordsman performs a single handed kesa cut to the right supported by a step backwards. Immediately the swordsman steps forward again and performing a deflective action towards the center cuts hidari kesa giri followed by chudan no gamae, chiburi & noto.
