Talk to the man in front of Chitose Provisions. He’ll tell you the dojo where Takechi is located is in the part northeast of Tosa. Head there and the guard will refuse to let you in. Run back to the main street and go east towards the wooden gate. You’ll get into a fight with a group of ronin who are bullying a shopkeeper and claiming to be from takechi’s dojo. Defeat them and a cutscene will play where someone from the dojo sees your actions and this unlocks access to Takechi.

You can now run back to the dojo you previously visited and Takechi will ask the guard to let you through so that you can meet. Pay attention, because lots of lore and backstory is talked about here.
