[edit] Story

Todoh is the creator and main teacher of Todoh style kobudo, which derives its style from Aikido and Kendo. Todoh had a long standing rivalry with disciples of the Kyokugenryu school of karate and considers them a threat to his style of teaching in terms of profits as well as personal animosity dating back to a rivalry with Takuma Sakazaki from when both men were very young.

In his quest to find his abducted younger sister, Yuri, Ryo Sakazaki blatantly attacked Todoh at his school and fought him to interrogate him about the whereabouts of his sister. After Ryo easily defeated Todoh, he was humiliated and saw his school's finances as well as his attendance at his schools suffer. After the loss, Todoh went into hiding and hasn't been seen since. Due to his disappearance, his daughter Kasumi went on a personal quest to not only try to look for her father, but to gain revenge on Ryo and all Kyokugenryu disciples to try to reclaim her family's honor.

[edit] Personality

In Art of Fighting, very little of Todoh's personality was shown. In later games, he became comic relief for SNK, cheering for Kasumi and often crying when she accomplishes something. But during in one of his cameos he is always seen hanging with Duck King and Heavy D! must of the time, so it shows that he's carefree sometimes.

[edit] Cameo Appearances

For some reason, there's a running gag to make him unplayable and limit him to cameo appearances. He used to share his appearances with Eiji Kisaragi. He's usually in the background of stages.
