Will this interpretation be a power based form like Djem So or Shii Cho, or a speed based form like Ataru and Shien, or something entirely different? The combined concepts of the previous forms into one powerful form?

Now that we've done the show are there any questions we did not get to that you'd like to ask?

Will there actually be any technical aspects? I haven't watched the whole show yet (50 minutes in), but canonically, Juyo does have some manuevers and velocities like Twin Suns.

I don't believe there is actually a FORM to Form VII. You can probably combine multiple forms to use it, but it's generally extremely random and spontanious. At least from the research on it that I've done and witnessed.

As we said, the technical aspects will not be different. It is how they are applied and the theory behind them. Concepts llke the "assured strike" and "swift flank" are concepts rather than moves.

Twin Suns is not a juyo method but a special type of sparring. According to Wookiepedia.

I think I understand now. Thing is, Assured strike always struck me as an actul manuever, but thn again, this concept could be appied to any saber form. For Makashi, assured strike could be an extremely fast shiim strike.
