Wow what a great interview. I am going to Japan this March. Right now I am a sparring partner, for a low level pro fighter. I plan on joining a gym in Japan. This makes me all the more excited. Thanks for the interview Tofu, it was really interesting.

This is quite interesting. Really shines a light on womens' restling in Japan. So when are you interviewing Chiaki Kuriyama? : )

Don't be silly. As long as you keep your comments relevant and not too drawn out (i.e. treating the comments like a forum) we're more than happy to have you here! You really don't have anything to worry about!

I felt a little weird too at first. But I'm sure he won't be mean. Seems like a nice guy. ^-^

Because Japan is the only place with like 20 brands of tofu on one shelf.

Is "don't mess with my" up at the top a typo for "don't mess with me"?

Wow, very interesting! I have been to a couple of local amateur fights (combatants who are not compensated, but do get placed and receive awards) in my home town, but I’ve never seen professional combatants. It must have been exciting for you to interview such a fascinating person!

BTW, this is my first post ever, on any blog, so…greetings fellow posters and Koichi!

Nice interview. I have a friend, an American, who has been a pro fighter in Japan for the last 10 years. His name is Ryan Bow. Maybe you can do an interview with him as well!

o__o Thats super awesome. She seems like a really strong person since she travelled to such a distant place on her own and was able to make friends & kinda blend in with the culture :]. Not only that, but she is physically strong too.

When i saw the first picture i thought she was the one with the leg up high! but when i saw the second picture it all became clear.

Anywho, shes awesome! You should have asked her "Why Japan?!"

Wow! That's great that she was willing to do an interview. It was really great getting to see what she had to say about her life in Japan.

Cool and different article! Nice! Cool to hear from people currently in Japan and doing different things!
Also, when I read the teacher part, I thought "やんくみ!?"
