Ran and karate

[Ranchangirl]

I understand there are several styles of karate. I wonder what kind would be taught in Baika City, so close to Tokyo. Karate is Okinawan. As I recall, there are Goju, Shotokan, Ishinryu and Kyokushin. I've got a yellow belt in Goju.

There's no way to tell unless it's stated in the manga, her movements aren't really derivative of anything in an overt way.
