Hakkyokuseiken is a fictional fighting style and martial art used by Terry Bogard.
Origin
Hakkyokuseiken is an ancient martial art that was recorded in three ancient Chinese scrolls. The first of which discusses fighting techniques, the second scroll teaches how to heal and grow physically stronger after a fight and the third and final scroll gives the user the secrets to immortality. The skills of Hakkyokuseiken are passed down from master to disciple and the final techniques are taught from master to student. The fighting style of Hakkyokuseiken blends techniques of Bajiquan, Tai chi, and karate techniques, and Terry uses this and his acrobatic abilities to create his own style of the art.
