During the first three films, no one wondered what his first name was, something that got an initial reaction in 1989 with the animated series of “The karate kid”, which it got its name from Yakuga, although five years later, in The Next Karate Kid was renamed and known as Keisukealthough that name clearly raised more doubts.
