It can not be learned, taught, nor refined through training and practice. Drunken Fist fighters are not simply drunk: they become human powerhouses who'll strike unpredictably with an explosive fury and without any second thoughts about their actions. Once drunk, the user will lose their ability to know friend from foe and attack whomever is in their vicinity. The Drunken Fist is not a reliable option because the 'drunken frenzy' that alcohol induces does not hold for prolonged periods of time; Lee is easily awakened from Drunken Fist with a simple scratch from anything which draws blood, sobering him up almost immediately. If he has not overcome his adversary by that time, Lee may be left at their mercy, as shown in his fight against [[Kimimaro]]. Lee also seems to have no memory of what happened while he was drunk. In the anime, Lee developed and mastered a variant called {{translation|'''Seasick Fist'''||}}, where he makes use of the nausea caused by [[Wikipedia:Seasickness|seasickness]] to overcome the fact he can't drink alcohol. == Trivia == * The Drunken Fist is based on the 8 Immortals [[Wikipedia:Zui Quan|Zui Quan]] style of [[Wikipedia:Chinese martial arts|Chinese martial arts]]. However, in the actual martial art, intoxication is not a factor; rather, the characteristic "drunken" movements are actually feints that are made to confuse the opponent for a period of time. * In the English versions of the manga and anime, the [[Wikipedia:Sake|sake]] Lee drinks is referred to as either a "''potion''" or "''elixir''" to avoid references to alcohol (as Lee is underage). ** Despite the change to "''elixir''", Lee would still have had alcohol in his drink, as elixir is a type of medicine made of 40-60% alcohol, usually vodka or grappa. Being a medicinal item would also explain why Tsunade would have some while in the hospital. * Drunken Fist Lee is playable in ''[[Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 3]]'', ''[[Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja 4]]'', and ''[[Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja 5]]'' as a transformation character. Though for the sake of gameplay balance, Lee, unlike in the anime, does not get sober immediately when hit, but instead sometimes acts as a time limit. == References == <references/> [[de:Suiken]] [[es:Puño Borracho]] [[fr:Technique de l'homme ivre]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
