On August 31,1931 "Japan Times" noted that bojitsu, or stick art, was neglected by the samurai but was not inferior technically to kendo or jujutsu, and could be learned faster than either. Koei Akimoto was the leading living exponent, and he had just started a new school.

Anybody have further details?
