Good for him! He looks sharp! It would be nice if he adopted the kilt as everday wear too. ;-) Wonder if he would.

A Japanese wearing a kilt "almost unnoticed" in Edinburgh?

Anyone in a kilt gets noticed there due to rarity!

the youngest person to be given the honour of 10th dan at the young age of 72 one of only 7 alive today from what i saw of him on telly last week he seemed a very humble down to earth man

i reckon George Kerr might`ve been the main reason for that he`s not too well known here but in Japan he`s almost as famous as the kilted Japanese man Kosei Inoue from what i gathered in the judo circles
