CHARACTER PROFILE
Karate Master
A Japanese karate master who, in 1977, agrees to a fight with a bengal tiger organized by Yoshio Kou in Haiti. He is said to have been stronger than even the famous Masutatsu Oyama in his prime. He is brimming with confidence, but right before the fight, he remembers Oyama's advice about the ferocity of tigers and begins to panic. The show is cancelled at the last minute after Brigitte Bardot and animal rights groups contact President Carter. The news shocks Kou, not only due to its suddenness, but also due to their concern being greater for the tiger than for the man who would have fought it.
