Not quite as pure lineage as some of the others (like matayoshi), but still very nice. I know the first one is shown online here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ3hAzm1fgA. I don't believe anyone has uploaded Ni at this time. Yes Odo Sensei’s crane forms have an interesting background.

I had the good fortune to be shown a crane form by Odo sensei many years ago in Greensboro, NC. Without a support group to help me understand it (I was training primarily on my own), I let it slide out of my memory. I will always be disappointed that I did not give it more time and dig deeper. Thanks for sharing.  I enjoyed the video and the stress you put on understanding the historical context.
