Description: Perfect Ki Fist? or Perfectly Dangerous

Watching both Gekiranger and History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi made me think about Haruka's martial arts style.
Since there is no real Pakiken style I find on the net I parsed it based on sylable.
Likely Pakiken is another fictional style Ken Akamatsu made like Shimeiryuu and Urashimaryuu.
Ki - Qi is the enegy produce by a living being.
Ken - means fist or sword
Some Kendo terminology
Ki-ken (n.) Something dangerous. / The high probability of loss, injury, or harm.
Ki-ken-tai-icchi (n.) Mind, Sword, and Body as One. The flow of Ki from a person into a sword resulting in a technique. This process completed without interruption. / Synonymous to Shin-ki-ryoku-icchi, Shin-gi-tai-icchi, Shin-gyō-tō-icchi.
Kiken as a word means Danger.
But as a two words means Ki (mind) and Fist or Sword.
Thus we come to the sylable Pa.
The only sensible meaning I can find in the Japanese online dictionary site is that Pa means perfect.
Pakiken either means:
Pa-Ki-Ken - Perfect Ki Fist
Pa-Kiken - Perfectly Dangerous
Given that Haruka can do a desvastating Tekken at Seta for peeping.
Tekken - iron fist or (punishment by) striking with fists.
Tekken involves hardening Ki to break things.

Wow. Leave it to the AQS Forums to be the largest repository of over-analyzed Ken Akamatsu data. Impressive.

Heh, and here I thought LH couldn't be analyzed anymore than it had been.

That's pretty impressive, I didn't even remember the name of the fighting form much less know enough Japanese to seek out its roots.
Do you think she'll ever surpass her older sister?

I think your thinking of Motoko. And yes I think it's possible for her to surpass Tsuruko.
