Hironori:

=== Thoughts ===

The first Kyu-Grades should be very easy. The 5th Dan should be at an extrem high level like [[Kendo]] 8th [[Dan]] or like 1st [[Kyu]] Instructor in [[Wado Kai]].

The System should be simple and logic.

There will be no one person [[Kata]], and only the necessary [[Yakusoku Kumite]].

So, the Yakusoku Kumite is as follows:

* Kumite no Ura 1-6
* Idori 1-7 (from second Otsuka-DVD)
* Kyusho no e Kogeki 1-5

These are total 18 Yakusoku Kumite.

From 2nd Kyu to 4th Dan there are 3 Yakusoku Kumite per Grade, but the 3 Kumite from 2nd Kyu are distributed to 4th to 2nd Kyu.

4th Kyu: Kumite no Ura 1 
3rd Kyu: Idori 1 
2nd Kyu: Idori 2 
1st Kyu: Kumite no Ura 2+3, Idori 3 
Shodan: Kumite no Ura 4, Idori 4+5 
Nidan: Kumite no Ura 5+6, Idori 6 
Sandan: Idori 7, Kyusho no e Kogeki 1+2 
Yondan: Kyusho no e Kogeki 3-5 

=== Examinations ===

* Each Person with a Dan can take gradings alone, up to 3 Grades below his/her own grade.
* Three Persons together can take Dan-Grades up to 2 Grades below the lowest Grade among the examiners (example: 3th Dan, 4th Dan and 4th Dan can take together gradings up to 1st Dan).
* The board of directors elects a technical comitee of 3 to 6 members for every 10 years.
* The technical comitee can take gradings up to 5th Dan.

Timing:
* Minimum 3 years between 2 dan gradings.
* Failed Grading can be repeated after 1 year.

=== Technical Level ===

* 5th Kyu is like Wado Ryu 9th Kyu.
* 4th Kyu is like 7th Kyu in Wado Ryu.
* 3rd Kyu is like 5th Kyu in Wado Ryu
* 2nd Kyu is like 3rd Kyu in Wado Ryu.
* 1st Kyu is like 1st Kyu in Wado Ryu.
* 1st Dan is like 1st Dan in Wado Ryu
* 2nd Dan is like 3rd Dan in Wado Ryu
* 3th Dan is like 5th Dan in Wado Ryu
* 4th Dan is like 7th Dan in Wado Ryu
* 5th Dan has to be almost like Hironori Otsuka.
