Kato Shigeaki's last comment!
We safely did the crank up of Troubleman! When the filming started I decided in my heart to be myself and to do my best to not fail in this drama where I had for the first time the main role. Of course I felt some pressure. Now that the filming is over, I'm full of satisfation and liberalization.
The thing that makes me happy is that I didn't cause any trouble at all and we could end the drama. Last year in my private life I went to pray at the temple and I went to many "power spots", maybe it went well for this (lol). Since at that time it was all already decided for Troubleman I wished: "To do a good, safe drama". Well, I don't know if it was thanks to this or not but the filming was amusing and the atmosphere with director SABU and all the team was really the best. I think it became a drama I would recommend to everybody, family and friends. It is without doubts interesting so please everybody, watch it until the last episode. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
Report of the crank up!!
-In suit, on the river bank, Kato Shigeaki has a wound and blood on his left cheek. In what trouble did he end up this time!? ...No need to worry! It's only the last scene of Troubleman and the blood was made by the make up artists. Secrets after secrets, the story of this drama slowly came to an end. Until the very end Tokuda had to run without rest and who is the one waiting for him when he crumbles down...!?
-On the location, Kato-san was joking with director SABU: "When I first read the script of this last scene I was shocked (lol)".
The crank up went on from the beginning to the end in a very quiet mood. Suddenly the song theme of the drama sung by NEWS "Be Funky!" started to play and all the staff surrounded Kato-san shaking his hands "Otsukaresama deshita!", it was moving.
"I'm happy that I was given the opportunity to do Troubleman. To me it will be a treasure I'll cherish for all my life. Thank you so much!" - said Kato-san showing his wonderful clear smile.
