The dance-drama war[4] between kesatria (Bambangan) against raksasa (Cakil) could also be used as a place for a dalang's judgment in moving a puppet.

Philosophy

In Javanese culture, kesatria always considered as a good figures, willing to defend the truth, to help others, etc.[5] The kesatria title is given not because heredity. For example, in the Mahabharata story, Kurawa does not has a kesatria title, even though he has the same ancestors as the Pandava.

In other hand, raksasa is a rough, violent and dynamic-character.

Characterizations

In the Bambangan Cakil dance-drama, Arjuna depicted as kesatria, while Cakil depicted as raksasa.[6]
