The only condition for employment was "work location in Ginza" The Ginza I longed for This is how I lived through the "winter of my life" Aytago-kun also helped me Hostess scoutman yielded zero results My only dandyism The strange connection between malnutrition and the training school Ten years have passed, one way or another I wanted to stay as far away from the Haiyuza theater as possible It's not interesting, talking about family Random thoughts on "Taketori Boogie" ◉PART② Shall I Talk About My Passionate Feelings? Fights and Hiroo The "last Nikkatsu" where the heat was fading I want to cherish encounters like this I'm always wanting, but it doesn't come to me The movie set is the most barbaric Do you understand the joy of being betrayed? Even if they call me a movie actor... "Ryoma Assassination" and "Preparation for a Festival" were turning points for me I'll definitely bring alcohol (Comment by Seitaro Kuroda) Wisdom and foolishness I can't get enough of the commotion when I'm betrayed ◉PART③ Feeling Like B-Class Paradise The scent of Amashock (Comment by Kaori Momoi) Bressley blew away my dream of becoming a singer It takes tremendous energy to try again I like a woman who never gets discouraged, a blues woman My first concert, fueled by alcohol If I could sing this blues... You have to do it openly or you won't make it in time I'm not playing alone anymore A strange pair with no sense of the kitchen Golden Bat with his back turned (Comment by Ryudo Uzaki) I can see the men and women wriggling in the city Patriotic nationalism Bourbon suits the blues well The blues of longing Magnificent broad-mindedness (Comment by Hitomi Kawashima) ◉PART④ A Delinquent Boy from Tomorrow Onward I'm so absorbed in playing that there are no elegant lies When I'm in the "younger brother's position," I can relax and have fun I have no goals or objectives, only aspirations There are moments when I become foolishly serious It's foolish to believe in the body We must not let the power of play weaken #YoshioHarada #Nikkatsu #MaleActor #Outlaw
