Single(Hardback ) Shinchosha / December 22, Showa 29----。 Masahiko Kimura, who switched from professional judo to Pro Wrestling, was at the height of his popularity at the time at Rikidozan and the "Showa no Ganryu Island Decisive Battle" held under the pretext of "competing for the best in Japan". The match was predetermined to be a draw, but Kimura was one-sidedly crushed and KO'd. Even though there were only two stations, the TV ratings that were broadcast live together were 100%. Indeed, Kimura, who has exposed his miserable appearance in the eyes of the entire nation, is 37 years old at the time. He lived to be 75 years old, and it was a humiliating event that occurred at a turning point in his life. During his active judo days, Kimura regarded judo as a martial art for killing each other, and on the eve of a match, he always practiced seppuku with the tip of his dagger on his abdomen. If he loses, he will cut his stomach, and it is this determination that makes Kimura a regular winner. Unable to forgive Rikidozan for breaking his promise, Kimura grabbed the dagger he had once used to practice seppuku and took Rikidozan . Trying to kill him. However, this was not the case...... What's the depths of it? Based on the "Iwaryu Island Battle", which is considered to be the biggest mystery in the history of postwar sports, the life of Masahiko Kimura, the strongest judoka of the rare era, is depicted in detail!
