About us

Owner / Head Writer

I am Charlie, the owner and writer for Sogo-Kaku. As a passionate fan of the combat sports, I have been following Japanese combat sports since I was in college. Now, some 15 years later, I am still passionate about it and have written for several websites over the years. Understanding that there can be a significant language barrier to enjoying Japanese combat sports, I started this website when I moved back to Japan in order to help introduce people to it. In addition to this site, I also appear regularly on Shu Hirata’s podcast to discuss Japanese MMA.
