It would have been nice if he could have been in the new one in some capacity. However, he seems quite understanding about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a strange choice of attire. Motoki Masahiro was a favorite of current director Suo Masayaki, who featured him in Sumo Do, Sumo Don't, Fancy Dance, and a cameo in Shall we Dansu opposite Masayaki's wife, the ballerina Kusakari Tamiyo. One of his last major roles was a rare portrayal of Emperor Hirohito in The Emperor in August (2015). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
