Outlook - Makoto Oishi has been one of Kaientai Dojo's best products. His background in sambo and time spent in BattlARTS led to him having a shooter gimmick. The blend of submission holds, strong strikes and a touch of highflying were a good combination and Sambo Oishi was pushed hard. Although working as a mini-shooter might have worked in 2002, that trend has passed and luckily Makoto Oishi changed accordingly. He dropped the "Sambo" handle and began concentrating on a more traditional junior style. Oishi also picked up a capable partner in Shiori Asahi and the two became a one of the best tag teams in Japan. His style is more refined now and while he is less unique than he was, but Oishi's look and presence have improved to make up the difference. Makoto Oishi is now one of K-Dojo's best talents and he is doing regular gigs with a variety of outside companies where he has showed a wide range of abilities.
