Me too, he was such a big part of our childhoods & our 1980's. Utmost respect for this man & his kids that we got to see grow up. I remember the feeling back when he made Black Eagle alongside somewhat newcomer at the time Van Damme & it was Sho that was the far bigger star & we were all like, who's this Van Damme guy? Sho's gonna kick his ass lol.

Cant even think of a ninja movie without this man. What a legend

I grew up with the Sho kosugi movies. He is such a legend 😃. His movies inspired me to start martial arts. He is one of my favourite actors

Sho Kosugi is a living legend! I idolized, imitated and emulated this man since I was 6 years old growing up as a little Black kid on the west side of Chicago. He saved my life!

I think Sho Kosugi would be the perfect mentor character for Daniel (Karate Kid) in the new Cobra Kai series. Sho Kosugi is the best.

I AM A SHO KUSUGI FAN SINCE CHILDHOOD I AM 46 NOW AND STILL LOVE THE GUY I CAN WATCH HIS MOVIES OVER N OVER LOVE YOU SHO YOU ARE FOREVER MY FAVORITE NINJA.

Sho is my child hood movie star,I also lived right down the street from one of his shops in LA.My mom bought me a ninja suit for halloween from there when I was 11.i use to see Sho and Kane there.Sho is a Legend!!.

I love Sho Kosugi. I want to see more of him like this & would love to meet him! I grew up on his movies.

I was 5 years old when I watched these movies... they are sacred to me now. Like, frozen in time. Thank you Sho!

I started stuying Ninjustu when I was 9 years old, along with Bruce Lee, Sho become my reference when I was a Kid!! Awsome Post!!! Thank you so much!!

My childhood hero. I love you Mr. Kosugi. I wish you the best of luck in everything you do. Thank you so much for all the great memories.

What a beautiful speech! Respect this man! First Kosugi movie I saw was" Black Eagle" with Van Damme, also who got his big break wth Cannon films. Rest in peace Menahem!

Sho Kosugi was what started it all for me. 30 years later, here I am, a fifth degree ninja. Don’t regret nothing. One thing I loved about Sho’s movies was that he did get hurt in his movies. Determination through pain.

Thank you Sho for your contribution in the movie scene. 😘😘😘😘😘

This man is my favorite martial artist

Ninja posters all over my wall when I was a kid, all because of Sensei Sho Kosugi. Back then, I studied and became fluent in the Japanese language and studied Karate-do too because of Ninjitsu. I was even a Ninja for every Halloween until I got too old to go trick-or-treating. Thank you, Sensei Sho Kosugi, for inspiring so many youth who could find courage, determination and self-esteem through your movies and the study of martial arts, especially its code of ethics. 小杉先生ありがとうございます。

Amazing how fit this guy is. I'm going to watch all his movies. The world needs more Ninja movies, and hopefully we get more with Sho Kosugi as an old Ninja Master.

LOVE Sho Kosugi!! He was a big part of my childhood. Every Halloween I was a ninja. I still watch Revenge of the Ninja and Ninja 3 the Domination. Both movies will ALWAYS be in my collection of favorites. I think Sho should do a remake of Revenge of the Ninja but only if he has a lot to do with the movie. Gotta find the right guy. Rain was pretty good.

I grew up watching all of his movie's and his Ninja skills and martial Arts is what inspired me to training in the Ninjitsu style and while I was still very young in the U.S. MILITARY I would go out on the military bases fields and mimick and re- illustrate every fight scene that he was in and even to this day I still follow the ways of his Ninja teaching, he will always be the true Sensei/Master Sho. Thank you for inspiring peoples like me, Master Sho.

Master Sho Kosugi, thank you as well for all of the encouragement getting me through the high school bullies!!

When it comes to martial arts action heros, Sho Kosugi influenced me in my own practrice up there with Bruce Lee and Jean-Claude Van Damme. I also liked Chuck Norris, but more for his actions movies.

Sho Kosugi is a legend, amazing Martial Artist, would have love to see Sho Kosugi in movie with Chuck Norris during their prime.

Sho Kosugi was one of the best parts of my 1980's. He was one of the best action hero's at the time.

I love his films. 73 years old and amazing shape.

Sensei Kosugi is by far the greatest martial arts movie star ever along with Toshiro Mifune.

Love Sho Kosugi

Thanks for uploading. Sho is a great martial artist and ambassador for the arts. He was the one that inspired me to learn the art of Ninjitsu and Shinobi..

Happy Birthday to the Agent of Missionary Shogun. Represent from [Nippon] Tokyo, Empire of Japan. Sho Kosugi. A man who has the Art of Invisibility and the atomizing strength of the warrior is here to prove himself to be the outstanding event that no one shall have what ti takes to outsmart him and his ninja skill in the adventure of Assassins Master Quest. Sho Kosugi make incredible impact to be amazing in many events that makes him 100% famous for the Emperor Shogun which admire his judgment to be a Martial Arts Hero.

I have been watching every single films of Sho Kosugi and how he inspired me of his best, amazing skills as a true, Legendary Ninja🥷🏿⛩️☯️🙏🏿

I watched every Sho Kosugi movie. I didn't care if they are good or bad. As long as Sho was in it, I watched them. What are your favorite Sho Kosugi movies? Mine are the first 2 that made him an international success. Enter the Ninja and of course Revenge of the Ninja. I can see those 2 over and over again!

He's a real legend. And a nicely humble man

Sho Kosugi single-handedly made the Ninja popular in every way and is solely responsible for the huge success of Ninja movies in the 80's and 90's. When anyone says "Ninja" everyone thinks of Sho Kosugi. He is the reason I started studying Ninjutsu in 1984 at age 10 (started the martial arts at age 7) after seeing my favorite TV show "The Master" which was way too short of a series, and all of his films as well and I am still going strong today because of these films. I was also inspired by Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee followed by Van Damme, Steven Seagal, Jeff speakman and many others as well. But Bruce, Chuck, and Sho inspired me the most back when I started in the early 80's and still inspire and motivate me today.

Just for rol leaders as you Kosugi-san I decided to learn martial arts!! Thank you from my deep soul

Sho will ALWAYS be the Quintessential NINJA - he isn't just the Greatest ninja ever...he created the "Ninja" Archetype itself. Sure the idea of ninja existed long before...but historically ninja are not well known...he combined elements from his martial arts and the warrior spirit of the samurai and mixed in some super badass abilities and the world was in awe!!! I will never forget watching Revenge of Ninja when I was 7 years old. My family was to poor to afford cable so my friend had recorded it from cable and let me borrow the tape. I couldn't tell you how many times I watched that movie from the age of 7 to 10...Literally 100s of times. I begged and pleaded for my mom to buy me a ninja suit and after a year I finally got a fairly authentic one down in China Town...even had the tabi shoes. I practiced with my wooded boken for hours in our backyard till I had blisters on my hand. In my mind I was a ninja...and I'm sure there's lots of guys in their 40s right now that were doing the same thing! Lol Sho was my biggest hero...and because of him - I [secretly] still want to be a ninja when I grow up! Lol Here's to you Sho! Your Biggest Fan! - David D.

Love this guy, class act!

Mr Kosugi is a real Ninja.Thx for the Video.

Can we petition somehow to FINALLY get an official Sho action figure(s)?

To be lucky enough to be in attendance to listen to and see the great Sho Kosugi is a once in a lifetime opportunity! A true legend and icon to all of us that grew up in the 80s.

he was legendary.i loved his Movies.Must see Movies all of them.

That was the first one I ever saw. After that first fight in the beginning with all the ninjas, I was glued to the screen and couldn't get enough.

When the master and the legend speaks...I listen.

I like his confidence and attitude. Mr Kosugi has went through a lot and he started as a extra .Eight years as a extra! That part I never knew that part about him.

Sho, you are a god of ninjas. We all love you. Love you.😎👍

Thank you so much. I always wondered what those hand movements represented. Fascinating and awesome.

I got into ty quan do because of sho but always have loved his martial arts, I wish I could meet him in person and get some tips in the field, he's always been a ledgend in movies and martial arts 👍👍👍👍

an absolute legend, nothing but respect for sho. even if he didn't give keith vitali more fight scenes in revenge of the ninja!

He is and was one of the best Ninjas

The original "Ninja" the Shinobi legend "Sho Kosugi" 🗡🙏🗡

I'm so thankful for Kosugi - San many blessings!

Still the best and my favorite. Great stories. Inspiring. I kind of miss the trademark 80's medium length hairdo! But he's looking well. Didn't know he went to PCC! Not a bad CC for film stuff.

Absolutely FANTASTIC! Thank you so much for sharing this video.

I look up to this guy so much as a kid US Martial Arts Hall of Fame Donnie Dunn

👺👍I studied Tae-Kwan-Do an my experience in the martial arts is some what knowledgeable, Ninjitsu is very crafty an I for one love the art, Shoalin Kungfu is my other love an Kenpo but Master Kasugi has shown he is the ultimate Ninja an his son's are awesome to follow in his footsteps!!!! 👊😎Bless them an may he continue to keep strong in his ways of the All mighty God... 😇👍👊👺

This is so awesome. I watched all his Ninja movies when I was a kid. I used to rent at least one every week. I imagine that most of the people commenting here also watched his movies as kids too.

Great martial artist..

I'm really fan of sho kosugi 👍

one of my heroes for sure.

If you email Sho on his website, he'll send you an autograph pic. Sho is awesome. Brought ninjas to the big screen.

The host looks like one of the Red ninjas in Enter The Ninja, the one in the beginning around 12:50 (min/sec) with the big slash across his face, seen when all the ninjas assemble together before the "beheaded" master who asks Cole to show him the Nine Levels of Ninja Power. Besides Franco and Sho, he's the only one of the red ninjas who removes his head cover.

True Story Great place to tell it Short version Growing up like most of you in the 80s My brother and I loved his movies mimicking his moves taking lessons Many years later As a struggling actor working as a gymnastics instructor working with special needs children and training as an assistant to a great stunt man and martial arts teacher After some time I happened to be dropping off a script and noticed Kosugi Office in the same building. OMG I was shocked it couldnt be I figured go check it out I did It was him right there in his office 2 months later on a plane on my way to Japan to study train and instructor for gymnastics acting English singing and dance I was trained in several martial Arts learning things I couldnt possible imagine gaining a concept and goals for my self I was trained worked for studied from living in his school working at the school. I loved it so much. His assistant instructors master Okada James He and so many others were amazing people Thank you master Sho for the life experience and thank you to your family amd staff for that wonderful time in my life 2000-2001 SKI Tokyo Japan Ross Strauss PS. No harm no regrets. Pretty sure Master Sho never liked me. He was usually quite angry and said some pretty hurtful things but im so glad he did and wouldnt change it for the world Because of this experience ive open my own gym/school that is doing splendidly ✌

Sho kosugi desde niño vi tu serie de el maestro hi soy admirador tuyo por que tu heres un ninja orijinal siempre me ha gustado la diciplina ninja saludos con todo respeto

Mis respetos al gran Sho Kosugi, gran maestro ninja, yo también soy ninja, hice Ninjutsu, Togakure Ryy, en la Bujinkan, pero hoy el Ninjutsu, solo se usa en legítima defensa, y ya no para matar, eso era antes.

Sho Kosugi was so cool ! Who cares if the ninja movies were all fantasy, that's what movies are anyways !

Weird! I had a dream there, at the beginning of this video!
