When he was a little kid, Fumio Manaka thought ninja were �very cool.� The legends of their superhuman feats of espionage and almost magical ability to become seemingly invisible to pursuers filled his comic books and ignited his imagination.
At that time he had no way of knowing that, by the time he was a teenager, he would be introduced to and become the student of a headmaster of several classical Japanese martial traditions... or that some of those traditions would include the last vestiges of ninjutsu, the techniques of invisibility and stealth practiced by those Japanese warriors popularly referred to as �ninja.� And he probably had not even fantasized that, by the time he was fifty, he would have been granted licensure in these martial traditions, established his own dojo and international organization, or achieved such a level of skill that he could then pursue �a freedom of movement and lifestyle that is restricted by nothing.�
It is in this spirit that the man who is now Japan Self Defense Force Lieutenant Colonel Fumio Manaka has taken the martial name Unsui. Composed of the characters for �cloud� and �water,� the term is used to describe itinerant Zen monks whose life of wandering and constant study, �... is characterized by freedom, spontaneity, humility, and inner strength, plus the resilience to adapt... to changing circumstances without strain or anxiety.�
��Unsui� is a monk or priest in training who is seeking the Way. I think that I will never be complete or perfect until the day I die,� Manaka Sensei asserts. �I took this name with the intention of studying and training for as long as I live.�

Lt. Col. Manaka possesses full licensure in Gyokko-Ryu Kosshijutsu (a ryu-ha, or tradition, of unarmed combat primarily based on soft tissue and pressure point attacks), Koto-Ryu Koppojutsu (�koppojutsu� literally means �bone breaking art�) and Togakure-Ryu Ninpo (ninjutsu). He has also been granted teaching licenses for Kukishinden-Ryu Happo Biken (a branch of the Kuki family martial traditions that includes several weapons systems in its teachings), Takagi Yoshin-Ryu Jutaijutsu and Shinden Fudo-Ryu Daken and Jutaijutsu (which include a wide variety of unarmed combat methods).
