Fighting Spirit depicts a fantastical scene of a tattooed samurai being besieged by a group of modern-looking men armed in traditional style with fierce beasts. Not shy about nudity, the figures are depicted with expressive masculinity whereas it is the beasts that are clad in armor and decoration. Most of the periphery of the deliberately composed painting is filled with the troop and the clouds of dust they bring, while negative space in black is left around the main character and in the lower right corner as his line of retreat. Although he is standing with his back to the audience, it is clear that his valiancy goes without saying
