wish you could have asked me that in person. That way you would see the immediate no thinking no hesitation answer.
Toshio Sakai of Isawa!
second son of the starter of Matsunosuke bllodline, he had nothing handed to him and worked for everything he has. Brought the original carp back into the bloodline for renewed size and health and vigor. Brilliant man. His son is studying with Sakai of Hiroshima.
noted for go sanke, this man breeds all kinds of koi varieties. He is one of the best teachers. I think some of the first words in english i ever heard him say was "shaddup"....( shut up ) when some of his students weren't paying close enough attention!
my favorite koi in the world, my own "kimiko" was bred by him.
