We're excited to offer these tosai (koi less than 1-year old) from famous breeders for 2021. This is a great way to affordably access many different varieties of koi all in one spot. Normally full-grown koi sell for high prices, but with the Study Tategoi program (where koi are randomly selected for you) you can affordably get young koi and watch them grow and develop in your pond.

- Over 1,100 individual koi
- 19 tosai varieties to choose
- 9 excellent koi breeders
Prices currently range from $49–$129. All are at great prices and randomly selected. These koi will likely sell out fast; so select your favorites!
These koi are all pre-selected by Taro Kodama and are top-quality koi, so requesting to select individual koi is not an option.

Featured Koi Breeders
We're happy to share Taro Kodama's expertise below about these hard-working breeders. Enjoy!
Mr. Shigeru Mano
Dainichi Koi Farm
In the Koi world, it is hard to find somebody who does not know the Dainichi name. It is synonym of champion quality Koi. As a matter of fact, he won the grand champion at 2020 All Japan Koi Show, the world's no. 1 Koi show.
Because of the quality and the highest demand for the limited supply, we feel very fortunate to be able to obtain Dainichi Tosai and share them with you.
Dainichi are always the first to get sold out. So please do not wait 'till the last minute.

Grand champion Kohaku at 51st AJKS (All Japan Koi Show)
Grand champion Showa at 43rd AJKS
Mr. Mitsunori Isa
Isa Koi Farm
I must say that Isa Koi Farm and Dainichi are the two most popular breeders in Japan.
Isa's Showa has many features to enjoy, but my favorite quality is their strong bodies. Even males can build such powerful shapes, just like the Kokugyo prize winner.

Mr. Hisashi Hirasawa
Marudo Koi Farm
Being the chairman of All Japan Nishikoigoi Promotion Association, Mr. Hisashi Hirasawa leads breeders in Japan for a brighter future and higher quality Koi for people around the world.
Though he breeds many different varieties, his Kohaku and Sanke are especially popular. Recently he has won several grand champion titles with his Kohaku.
We are very happy to share his Kohaku tosai with you. Please experience and enjoy what his bloodline can do in your pond.

46th All Japan Rinyukai Superior Champion
Mr. Takayoshi Omosako
Omosako Koi Farm
There is no question that Omosako Koi Farm is the very best breeder of the Shiro Utsuri variety.
Taking the highest quality as granted, the body of his Shiro Utsuri is very hard to compete with. No Shiro Utsuri from other breeders can have the quality and the size in one. This is why his Shiro Utsuri surpasses everybody else's and always wins at the All Japan Koi Show.
It is very appreciated that Mr. Omosako consistently helps us obtain his valuable tosai and makes them available for you, our clients.

Best in Variety for 46th All Japan Koi Show 85bu
Mr. Kazuhiro Hirasawa
Kanno Koi Farm
Mr. Kazuhiro Hirasawa is one of the young leaders among breeders in Niigata. Goshiki from Kanno Koi Farm are definitely of top quality and highly demanded.
The amazing beauty of Kanno's Goshiki that won the mature champion over Gosanke at the recent All Japan Koi Show is still refreshing!
The tosai available for this study tategoi is from an outstanding female parent. She is 85cm (or 34 inches). She had never been shown at koi shows, but she would definitely have won Best in Variety at the All Japan Koi Show for sure.
Mr. Hirasawa says, "Her body and the high quality and bright beni are the reasons why I picked her for my breeding." We are very fortunate to obtain the first generation siblings of this All Japan class Goshiki. Let's share the dream with Kanno Koi Farm.
Ochibashigure and Ginrin Ochibashigure—these are his new variety additions. Last fall, I saw his 2-year old Ochibashigure. The body and the distinctive coloration were outstanding. I am sure these young siblings will grow big and beautiful.
Kanno's Ochibashigure and Ginrin Ochibashigure are still very new to the market. You should not miss this opportunity.

Mature Champion at All Japan Koi Show 2020
Nogyosai Special Award Winner
Mr. Masanori Shinoda
Shinoda Koi Farm
Because there are so many Koi varieties and so many breeders in Niigata, no breeder can breed all the varieties that exceed other breeders. To survive the severe competition, they need to specialize in certain varieties. For example, when it comes to Dainichi, we know Kohaku and Showa are excellent. When it comes to Izumiya, he breeds better Ogon than anybody else.
When we talk about Shinoda Koi Farm, Hi Utsuri, Doitsu Showa and Ginrin Showa are the reason to visit.
His Hi Utsuri is especially second to none. Just like Omosako Shiro Utsuri, no breeder can touch Shinoda’s Hi Utsuri. His Hi Utsuri is a regular winner of Best in Variety award at All Japan Koi Show. As a matter of fact, he won the title for the last 3 consecutive years.
We also raise his Tosai Hi Utsuri at our farm. This Koi was Tosai in 2018. She is now 24+ inches at our farm. Every Hi Utsuri in this program has the potential
His Ginrin Showa are descendants of the famous one that won grand champion at the 39th Nogyosai Koi show over Gosanke about 16 years ago. Before nor after that Koi, have I seen any other non-Gosanke beat other Gosanke for the title.

Mr. Hironori Hirasawa
Maruhiro Koi Farm
Being a brother of Marusei Koi Farm, it's no wonder that Mr. Hironori Hirasawa likes JUMBO. He loves any Koi that grows big.
When you go to his farm, you can feel his passion. His facility is always full of Koi, especially large ones regardless of the season.
Mukashi Ogon is one of his many specialities. I can say his Koi just grow BIG. Just put his Koi with others in your pond. His Koi will easily outgrow others. It is always fun to watch Koi with big appetite grow big and of course, beautiful.
Mr. Yoshikazu Otsuka
Otsuka Koi Farm
Mr. Otsuka always has a wide range of unique yet high-quality varieties in stock. Goshiki, Goshiki Sanke, Kage Shiro Utsuri, Aka Matsuba, Shusui, Asagi, etc.
For this Study Tategoi, we are proud to offer beautiful collections of his Shusui, Asagi, Benigoi, and Aka Matsuba.

Mr. Yasuaki Kaneko
Kaneko Koi Farm
While Kaneko Koi Farm is famous for Kujyaku, Shiro Utsuri and more, he is also known as a developer of Tamasaba goldfish. As a part of his passion for goldfish, he wanted to breed goldfish that koi hobbyists can enjoy with Koi in Koi pond. That is how Tamasaba came to birth.
Enjoy his high quality Tamasaba grow with your Koi in your Koi pond.
What is the “Study Tategoi” program?
There are many ways to study koi. A lot of videos and articles are available on the Internet. You can have knowledge on the koi variety, breeder, how they may develop, etc.; but you can never get the experience online.
In order to fully understand koi, nothing is better than raising them yourself in your own pond. Only by raising these koi in your pond, can you see the color, quality, and how they will grow and develop their beauty. As a hobbyist, you want to get this experience with minimal investment.
Study Tategoi program offers this experience at an affordable price. At Study Tategoi program, we select the breeder of a group of fine quality tategoi (future koi). By offering them randomly picked, Kodama Koi Farm can keep the cost low for you; and you get to enjoy a high-demand bloodline with confidence in quality.
