In Indonesia Pencak Silat already developed from a thousand years ago or even more. But in Kenichi series, It was developed to ward off UN suppression and succeeded at one point in driving invaders from Tidat, via a resistance led by Silcardo Jenazad. The style has a plethora of moves that could be considered "dirty", like the "Jurus", a set of 18 combo attacks meant to go for vital areas like the eyes, throat, and groin for kill. At least in the Kenichi series, there seems to be a large number of moves preceded by a jump, as well. It is a formidable martial art, showing strength against Karate, and being praised as "difficult to fight against" by Hayato Fūrinji. Likewise, Shō Kanō said that the style could adapt to anything, was freely changeable, had a large amount of techniques, and was complicated and bizarre. But in the same breath he also pointed out that the moves were so complicated that sometimes they couldn't deal with the straightforwardness of other martial arts. Pencak Silat moves have a lot of rhythm and rhyme. Usually jurus in Pencak Silat are demonstrated with music during training. Schools or places who train Pencak Silat are called "paguron" or "perguruan". Each perguruan has their own signature music with unique colour and tempo. For example, when performing a slow move at the beginning there is a music theme called tepak dua, when performing a fast move at the end there is a music called padungdung. Each region in Indonesie has its own style of Pencak Silat and its own music during performance.
