"If you have a reaction like Mr. Naka's, I feel like I could do anything." (Tetsuzan Kuroda)

Tatsuya Naka, a karateka who sincerely pursues the path of martial arts, deeply respects Tetsuzan Kuroda, a master of ancient martial arts whose teachings have changed his own martial arts perspective.

In this DVD series, Master Kuroda's "Kuroda-style training method" (*), devised by Master Kuroda himself, is experienced by Master Naka under Master Kuroda's direct guidance, spanning two volumes.

Will this training session also leave him with no recourse?
