[Moto Shikizu]

cool !!

Mais y a pas ceux des Licornes ?...

[Bayushi Ryumi]

Qu'entends tu par adaptation des katas en 3ème ?

De mémoire les katas sont dans la 3ème à moins que tu ne reprennes ceux de la 2ème non encore modifiés ?

@ Shikizu : Normal qu'il n'y ait pas la licorne, les katas c'est pour des samourais

[Kakita Inigin]

C'est scandaleux comme discrimination ...

[Tetsuo]

Okuma, tu peux préciser quand le post est en anglais stp ?
A chaque fois je me fais attraper par le titre alléchant et paf c'est un truc inutilisable pour moi.

[Okuma]

En 3e je post qu'en anglais pour l'instant. Sinon, ce sont les katas de la 2nd qui n'existaient pas encore en 3e (et tous les katas Licornes ont ete adaptes).
