The trope description seems to be mostly about Actual Monks, or at least highly diciplined martial artists, but the examples seem to include anyone who likes punching people. Don't we have Good Old Fisticuffs for that?

And I have a hard time thinking of someone in a Humongous Mecha as being "unarmed", even if the mech does punch other mechs.

Pulled the quote:

"I could see that Lee had no aptitude for Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, so we skipped them and focused all of his time and energy into developing his Taijutsu. That way we turned his disadvantage into a blessing. Now he doesn't need those other things to win because he's transformed himself into the world's greatest Taijutsu specialist."
Might Guy talking about Rock Lee, Naruto

Quotes aren't supposed to have potholes, and without the potholes the quote is gibberish to anyone who doesn't watch Naruto. Even with them, Good Old Fisticuffs is being misused, and that's the only one even slightly pertinent.

Why is there a separate folder for MMORPGS? Shouldn't those be included with video games?

What, no love for Josef?

Come on, the man even goes so far as to die to make sure the main characters in FFII finish their quest! I know that you can customize all the characters to be anything you want them to be, but when you first get Josef he's actually better at fighting unarmed than anything else and he had a high beginning strength and stamina. If THAT doesn't say bare fisted monk I'll never know WHAT does.
