Description: This is a translation of Fujita Seiko's book on Shurikenjutsu, the Japanese art of the thrown blade.Fujita Seiko was said to be the last head of his family's branch of the Koga-ryu, famed for its ninjutsu. He was convinced after the war, when the allies instituted a ban for a few years of martial arts, that they were trying to wipe out Japanese traditional culture. To counter it, he started several books on martial arts themes to pass along to the next generation. This is the result for shurikenjutsu.Aside from shuriken, this book also deals with things such as uchine- throwing arrows, modern uses, and even the best way to throw rocks. The original text is included along with the illustrations.The translator is someone who lived in Japan for well over a decade, studying various martial arts, including that of ninjutsu. As such, he brings a depth of knowledge to the subject that many contracted translators lack.
