[15] The final day of performances for the stage play "Kinkakuji" in Osaka!

2012-01-22 18:18:20



[Picture]

After our triumphant return to Japan, the stage play "Kinkakuji"

in Osaka

as of today we have finished our final performance


without any problems~

at all!





Our performances after returning home


was definitely


really deep





For about a year

regarding this play

and with "Tsurukawa," coming face to face with both



Including Amon-san
I've often discussed this with the other cast members but


With our first performance,

after our experience performing in New York,


clearly,
I think that we have powered up





Things that I'm finally coming to realize now

I feel like there's a lot of it







Probably
everyone feels the same


And through our performances,
I can really feel that on stage



That feeling of nervousness





is just so amazing




The happiness of being able to experience that
is absolutely the best





To this extent,
with my role

and with this play

and with myself

no matter how hard it is, being able to come face to face with all of that,

to "Kinkakuji" that allowed me to experience that


right now
having met such a work in this point in my life

I'm really grateful for being able to immerse myself in such a work


With our first performance

our performance in New York

And this time, our performance in Osaka
of "Kinkakuji"

and of Daito Shunsuke
to everyone who came and saw and experienced this


I just

want to convey my feeling of appreciation



That's how I feel




As well I just wish

that with our final performances in Tokyo
I would love it if you guys would come watch



That's how I feel



And I want to fully enjoy it to the very end!



That is how I'm feeling






Well then
as for myself




Today,
"Taira no Kiyomori",


I myself look forward to it every time but,



please check it out~






And

as for the last meal in Osaka, of course it is,



takoyaki!

&

akashiyaki!!

[14] It's almost time for "Meringue no Kimochi"!

2012-01-21 11:42:54



[Picture]

Well, well


Until the photobook goes on sale


there's less than a week now





Just thinking about that

makes me nervous!



And speaking of myself




Today is

the broadcast of "Meringue no Kimochi"~


This and that

bottom line, it was fun~


So Daito Shunsuke is this kinda person...



I'm a bit scared that people might think that











And on the 23rd



"JUNON" will go on sale~!



For this


I, myself, is excited






Before the photobook goes on sale

They did a special for me that could almost equate to a mini photobook


JUNON seriously has always been
such a big support for me since my debut

So this time, especially,

I feel like I was able to talk about really deep things




So please

take a look~





Today is


"Kinkakuji's"

second performance!




I will put in my best effort!




The BGM is

Kokubo Junpei's

"Contact"

Now I will be heading to the

feels just right






Once again

I will enjoy it!






Alright then

[Picture]

Well, well


Yesterday


on "Taira no Kiyomori"



finally, played by Daito,

Heiji made an appearance







And speaking of myself







I went to go see it!



The musical
"Monty Python's Spamalot"





Well~


I laughed!



They made me laugh



But anyone would laugh that much


It was that kind of play.




Of course there was the fact that Kaku-kun was acting in it too


But originally
I really like Fukuda Yuichi-san's work


So I was looking forward to it~




Well~This time it was also 100% Fukuda-san world






The music they used was great too







Aa~it was so much fun!





Thanks to them I had such a great time












However



It is so cold today

[10] Shitaya Mannencho Monogatari

2012-01-12 12:26:09



[Picture]

I went to go watch a stageplay



Stageplay
"Shitaya Mannencho Monogatari"








After you finish watching a great stageplay

that undesribable

heightened sense of feeling


I can't put my finger on it







You really get high on your emotions then it resides

This stageplay was just so so amazing




And I was able to see Fujiwara Tatsuya-san whom I haven't seen in a while





As for Nisshi

Even though it was just after the stageplay

and my emotions were running so high

we chatted with much passion in the dressing room



To the ever so kind Nisshi



Thank you







Well, well, well


with this feeling intact


I'll work hard during rehearsals~

[Picture]

I'm in the midst of rehearsals for "Kinkakuji" ~



I haven't worn these KINKAKUJI sneakers for a while









This heightened feeling of nervousness in rehearsals feels just right




I'm submerging myself into this world again


It's during those times






I come to fully realize

that this stageplay is really interesting





So that's what its like for me these days






How's everthing going for everyone?




In the Kansai area



"Shin Minami Teio" will be starting soon~






And tonight is

"Kokoro"

Happy


New Year!






The year 2012

What are you all up to?






As for myself

on New Years, for the first time in a few years

I went back to Osaka and

THE typical New Years!

esque

was the type of New Years I was able to take part in and




after quickly getting over my "New Years-lag"


I am now spending day after day rehearsing for the stageplay "Kinkakuji"




Starting with the opening of the stageplay at the Kanagawa Arts Theatre

then New York


and then

this time we'll be performing in Osaka and Tokyo


I don't often get a chance to work on one work for this long


but it made me realize what a great thing it is



I've seen the script over and over again but

The new side that I can see now
the ways that I can express it, I still come across such findings often


The rehearsals are really fulfilling






And that very

"Kinkakuji" will be starting and


so will the taiga drama
"Taira no Kiyomori"!




And so with that said





Including this year as well


This year


Starting from this year


Daito Shunsuke


Please support me!

[6] Bye Bye, 2011

2011-12-31 18:24:31


The last day of 2011

So it is





This year
A lot of things happened



In the world

and Japan

and myself







Through all that






if I had to say one word


It really was






a "thankful"






year




For being able to be in an environment that helped me grow all this time



For all the people I've met in my life



I'll probably come to really realize that as time goes on.





Right now

To every single
person I meet or the work I get to do


I just feel so much happiness


And for making me really feel all these emotions


For being the way it is right now



I'm thankful






So with that said


Next year


Even more than now!



Shun-soku!

I'm planning on running through at full speed so


Please support me!




Thank you 2011.

For the filming of "Zip!"*


I've always loved



that




dream world,







Toys "R" Us

I got to go there and









I ended up finding something amazing there...!




The name of it is

"The Strange Umai-bou Stick Party"*



What this is, is




The name itself is self-explanatory


It makes the umai-bou into sticks and its a strange item that makes you want to have a party







Not only that!





It actually


You can cut it into a spiral shape

and you can put it together with a different flavored one

and you can create your very own original flavor!




Amazing




It's a fresh breath of air in the world of umai-bou




If I had come across this when I was still a student

without a doubt, I would've been the popular one in the class








I want to take part in a


Stick Party

I went to the preview


one step ahead of everyone

and watched it






If I had to describe it in one word then








Awesome~!





It really was




While keeping the essence of the game world

there's still the really cool world unique to Director Miike's works



Well~


I really want you guys to watch it






The picture,


is of Detective Itonokogiri



Brings back memories






I hadn't seen for a while

but I was able to see Miike-san






Oh, what a good day it was!
