Koike would later report that he had been puzzled by the intense sword-wielding figure on his doorstep. Wakayama told him, "I really want this role," and hazarded a guess as to what Koike might be thinking-after all, the hefty actor was hardly the spitting image of the physically fit main character of the Lone Wolf manga. Wakayama said, "If you're hesitant to let me play this part because I'm too fat... look at this!" And with that, the forty-two-year-old veteran of the kabuki stage and numerous yakuza and chanbara pictures proceeded to dazzle Koike in his yard with a ferocious display of swordplay and somersaults. It sealed the deal: Wakayama got the author's blessing to play the lead in what would turn out to be only the first of six Lone Wolf and Cub films: Sword of Vengeance.
