I may be wrong, but I thought Funaki was japanese. Last I recall Kung Fu is chinese.
I dont mean to sound ignorant, but isnt that kinda racist "oh hes asain, give him an asain gimmick."
I know for a fact japanese martial arts is different then japanese.

Well there are many, many types of Kung Fu. I wouldn't be surprised if a fair few of them were Japanese. China and Japan were kinda an historical 'big pair' in the development of lots of martial arts.
