Introducing the second installment of a new series, featuring the invaluable video archives left by Aikido master Sadateru Arikawa.

Based on materials left behind by Arikawa, who inherited and evolved the essence of Aikido from Morihei Ueshiba, this series resonantly guides us through Arikawa's pursuit of Aikido's origins, entrusted entirely to Tozaki Enku Shuho.

Sadateru Arikawa, a master of Aikido, quietly supported the Aikikai organization behind the scenes. Renowned for his rigorous training methods, he was revered as a formidable practitioner, known as "Oni" (demon) in Japan and "Killer" overseas. In his later years, he was regarded as the last martial artist of his era due to his dignified presence. Despite personifying the essence of Aikido learned from his master, he shunned the limelight, revealing for the first time the true nature of this lesser-known adept. Using preserved voice recordings, photographs, and films, this series aims to elucidate Morihei Ueshiba's martial arts legacy.

Sadateru Arikawa (born January 14, 1930, in Tokyo) showed interest in martial arts from a young age, studying Matsudaikan karate under Yoshitane and Yoshitaka Funakoshi. He joined the Aikikai Hombu Dojo in 1947 and became a direct disciple of Aikido founder Morihei Ueshiba, progressing to become the dojo's chief instructor in 1959 and attaining the 8th dan in Aikido in 1970. Renowned for his exceptional skill and rigorous training regimen during the post-war chaos, he earned the nickname "Killer Arikawa," resonating even internationally. Beyond his prowess in combat, he was a dedicated researcher who collected numerous materials, including photographs and films of Morihei Ueshiba. As a pivotal figure in the Aikikai, he devoted himself to the propagation and development of Aikido. He was awarded the 9th dan in 1994 and passed away on October 11, 2003.
