Testes / groin
Central lower-body target
The groin and testes are preserved as the lower-body target named in the self-defence and jujutsu kata tradition. The point is placed on the front-view midline as a broad anatomical region, not as a claim that the historical manuals give a single coordinate. It is included with an explicit warning tag for historical classification and safety awareness.

The Goshin-jutsu technical specification, in its lower-body unarmed attack-and-defence series, documents the groin target represented here; the mapped point is an anatomical projection, not a source coordinate.
Jigoro Kano, Kodokan Judo (primary_canonical)
Kano’s Kodokan Judo, in its discussions of kata and self-defence, documents atemi as an auxiliary striking element within judo’s broader throwing and control curriculum; it does not supply the normalized body coordinate used here.
