In my five years of reporting, there is one thing that made a strong impression on me. It was the appearance of Mas Oyama when he spoke about the match between Rikidozan and Masahiko Kimura. It was a Sunday. "Could you please recreate the scene at the ringside back then...?"

Mas Oyama had his arms folded and was looking up at the ceiling for a while, when suddenly he banged the table and stood up. "What's with you, Rikido...!" he said, and so it began. (From the author's afterword)
