KIZUNA:The Samurai's Legacy

He was deeply inspired to pursue a career as an action film actor and director after watching Project A, directed by and starring Jackie Chan, when I was in my first year of junior high school.

While still in high school, I began performing in action shows and stage productions. In 2017, I joined Gekidan 4 Dollar 50 Cent, an entertainment troupe produced by Yasushi Akimoto, and have been actively working as an actor both within and outside the company ever since.

In October 2019, I screened my short film Himajin no Asobi at United Cinemas Toyosu, which became the catalyst for my deeper involvement in filmmaking. Since then, I have directed a variety of projects, including music videos and short films.

In 2020, I co-founded Tokyo Cinemas with composer Naoki Tani, focusing on the concept of “creating music from screenplays.” As a director, I handle all aspects of production, from writing and filming to editing.
