Is Kuyoshin Karate dying?

[Fat Donkey]

Form reading the links posted by the KK guys on this forum it seems that KK is being fragmented pretty badly from within. How bad is it? Will KK survive the next ten years or will we have dozens of competing schools all disputing who are the true heirs of Mas Oyama?

Meh, it's not dying. Truth is, the split up of all the organizations is really annoying. When Mas Oyama died, I guess there was big arguments as to why Kancho Shokei Matsui was given the honor of taking over the organization. So there was a lot of political reasons as to why other people started their own branch of Kyokushin and wanting to do things a bit differently. IKO is the intended Kyokushin organization in my opinion... because Mas Oyama chose Kancho Matsui to run it, and therefore put his trust into him.
