  He enrolled immediately.
  Ever since that day, Naka has been dedicating himself to follow the path of master Nureki.
  He’s committed himself to the precision and accuracy of this formal hanging, tightly knit style of bondage.
  Naka has also been evolving his own unique offshoot, called the ‘Naka-Ryu’ style, intended to break new ground in the bondage of beauty and torture.
