## Bio

Sasaki Kojirō lived during the Azuchi–Momoyama and early Edo periods, known also as Ganryū Kojirō. On April 13, 1612, he met Miyamoto Musashi for a duel that would define both their legends. Musashi killed him that day. The loss and the death might have erased him, but instead Sasaki became revered in Japanese history and culture — a warrior whose skill was so undeniable that even the man who cut him down proclaimed him the strongest he ever fought.
