First, when I trained shotokan karate (long ago) bunkai was the understanding and explaining of among others kata's. I do not remember any connection to finnishing techniques other then those that where part of the kata's.

Second, wanting to train finnishing techniques clearly indicates that your understanding of the context of aikido is lacking and that you have no understanding of the philosophy and ideas of aikido.

Third, maybe you should spent more time in the dojo instead of playing Mortal Combat all day.
