This is my collection of books by Matsuda Ryuchi (松田隆智) sensei.
The entire journey started with the 拳児 manga series. This is the original 21-volume set.
And this is the republished 11-volume set.
He has also written books about his quest to find the strongest punch.
His later works also include two books about the results of his years of pursuing martial arts. I actually summarized the contents of one of them previously.
His earlier works are instructional books on Chinese martial arts at a time when they were still not well known in Japan.
Of course, talk about Matsuda-sensei and you cannot avoid talking about bajiquan, and he has instructional books on that too.
Plus an overview of Chinese martial arts, more like a research compilation.
And he was also featured in Japanese magazines that focused on Chinese martial arts. Here are some of those issues that I have which featured Matsuda-sensei.
As you can see from his Wikipedia entry, he has written many other books, some of which I do not own. Maybe someday...
