Manga

My formal introduction to Meifu Shinkage Ryū was at the 2016 autumn training camp in Sasagawa. Dōzen Ryokan, where we stayed, has a couple of bookshelves in the lounge room with a heap of books on kyūdō as well as other budō. One book I really enjoyed looking through was マンガ.武道のすすめ : Manga - An introduction to budō by 田代 しんたろう Tashiro Shintarō.

The front cover shows a variety of characters doing budō and was the inspiration for the drawings on this site. I tried to use a similar drawing style, but of course depicting Meifu Shinkage Ryū arts.
