When i've done camera test, after we've shot and I've seen the monitor with the glasses (wearing a Kimono) and looking by myself in 3D. Oh my god. Especially for a Samurai film. I've never seen that. It's kind of a culture shock.

This is almost the most famous story The last samurai - Samurai story - in Japan.

I saw a lot of 47 Ronin on the TV, in the films, and I've done Chushingura Gaiden Yotsuya Kaidan [Crest of Betrayal, 1994] directed by Kinji Fukasaku.

I think it's very hard to direct foreign language actors, but Carl Rinsch found a great way. A special super visional way.

I was a child actor, so when I started filming when I was five years old, it was a long time ago.

Action is just one of my skills.

It's very difficult to introduce the world to our culture.
