The new Onihei Criminal Book has already started cranking. At the press conference announcing the performers this time, it was revealed that a total of 4 works will be produced as 'Onihei Hankacho' SEASON 1 , and the first work ' Onihei Hankacho Honjo/Sakurayashiki ' will be a two-hour special.

Next, Mr. Tomoyuki Miyagawa , an executive officer of Nippon Eiga Broadcasting Co., Ltd., took the stage and said, 'Even if it was written in the original, we would like to actively work on the parts that could not be visualized. It would be nice if Mr. Onoe ( Katsuro Onoe ), who was in charge of VFX for Shin Godzilla, Shin Ultraman, and Shin Kamen Rider, could participate and reproduce a new Edo with Mr. Onoe's VFX. I think it's the wind,' he said.
The whole speech of Mr. Miyagawa was as follows.
Following Mr. Miyagawa's greeting, 10 regular casts took the stage with the invitation.

Mr. Koshiro , Mr. Somegoro Ichikawa 8th as Tetsuzaburo Hasegawa, the young Onihei, and Mr. Yuri Nakamura as the spy Omasa.
First of all, Mr. Koshiro Matsumoto, who plays the role of Heizo Hasegawa, gave a greeting.
All were seated for a question and answer session. The first thing that jumped out was, ``You said that you had a pre-production camp and formed a team.
Koshiro, who was asked about the pre-training camp, said, 'Just before entering the training camp, we practiced sword fighting and partly rehearsed. I think it's a position that requires a lot of thickness, or rather the strength and weight of the sword. It feels like it's getting thicker and thicker while maintaining it.'
On the other hand, Mr. Hino, who was asked about it, seemed to have no idea at first, saying, 'I don't know which one was the training camp.' He explained that it was when we all went out to eat together, and he said, 'I would like you to always do a training camp like that.'
Also, Asari, who also participated in the training camp, expressed, 'Everyone did sword fighting practice and went to eat immediately after about an hour.' Mr. Koshiro added that after rehearsing, the sword fighting practice was done in a tight time.

The new series will also depict the young Heizo Hasegawa, who spent his days in debauchery. When asked how Heizo played the ruffian era when Heizo was still called 'Tetsusaburo', Mr. Somegoro said, 'Tetsusaburo does not have a sword, but a club. Unlike a sword, It wasn't a cutting action, it was a sword fight that was all 'hitting', so it was different from the sword fight I had done with a sword in another work before. It was difficult because I had to show that weight in my own sword fighting.'

In response to the question, 'Is there anything that you found interesting?' Somegoro said, 'He was called 'Honjo no Tetsu,' and although he had a kind heart, he was a naughty person during the Tetsuzaburo era. That kind of role. It was very difficult because I had never done it before, but I was happy to be able to take on the role of a new frontier.'
Onihei Hankacho is a popular work that has been filmed four times in the past, and each actor who plays the main character Heizo has a different charm. Especially for Koshiro, it is an important role to take over from his grandfather Koshiro Matsumoto VIII, who played Heizo I in the TV drama, and his uncle Kichiemon Nakamura II, who played Heizo 4th. Koshiro, when asked if he thought, 'Let's do something different here,' when playing the role that his predecessors had played, answered, 'Ever since my grandfather first appeared in the film, Tetsuro Tamba and Kinnosuke Yorozuya , I've been playing Heizo the demon with my uncle.I've been able to perform as my uncle Onihei, but I myself was watching him in real time, so it's just cool and funny Onihei. I was one of the people who was looking at the crime book. I don't have the personality to make such quick decisions, but at that time, I think I went into this shoot with the feeling that I had no hesitation.'
In addition, 'I would like you to compare enough, and I will confront you head-on for those who are new to Onihei, the Onihei in novels, and the image of Onihei for those who have seen them, and those who are new to Onihei Hankacho. I am working on it with the feeling that I will continue.” The image I have of Onihei is, ``He must have been at the forefront no matter where he entered. My theme is to play Heizo in a way that makes you feel like, 'I've come to be called Heizo.''
In the Onihei Criminal Record, in addition to Heizo's subordinates, a spy who helps Heizo appears. Ms. Nakamura, who plays the spy Masa, commented on her role this time, ``This time, I have a deeper relationship with Onihei than what I had interpreted when I was watching the Onihei crime book when I was a child. Omasa, who was born into a world where people could only live in the underworld in a time when there were more social status differences than today, met Onihei and for the first time treated people of different social status equally. I think that it was a powerful encounter that would change my life because I was able to receive it and learn a lot of very important things.'
“Even if I was in the position of a woman at the time, I wanted to serve this person more than anything else. I thought that too, and Koshiro-san also gave me sweets and tea and took care of me in various ways, so in that sense, it's been useful (lol).' gave me
When Mr. Hino, who played the role of Hikoju from Sagami, another spy, held the microphone to answer, Mr. Tokio Emoto, who played the role of Juzo Ono, started to speak, 'Yes, the role of Hino is...' . Mr. Emoto, who received a retort that 'You're not a spy, but a concentric,' explained, 'I mistook Hino for Ono,' causing laughter from the audience.
Mr. Hino once again showed the episode that Mr. Shotaro Ikenami gave him his stage name. 'I thought I had finally met him, and when I came to him thinking, 'What kind of person is Koshiro-san?', he was always smiling, kind, and playful. , Anyway, I want to show that I like Heizo and I love him,” he said about his work on the work.
When it comes to period dramas, the sets and costumes that reflect the past era also play an important role. Sendo, who plays Heizo's wife Hisae, commented, 'I'm learning how to wear a kimono, and I'm studying every day with the feeling that my spine is straightened.' Ms. Nakamura said, 'Since last year, I've been attending Nihon buyo and I've been preparing to get used to wearing it.'

Mr. Koshiro, who was asked, ``When you actually started shooting and were challenged to play the role of Onihei, which was played by the previous generations, did you have any changes in your mindset or a difference in how you took it?'' and Somegoro.
“Because of this regular group, every day is a stimulating experience that there is no such thing as happiness. Do you want to forget about it already?I will do everything I can do on that day.I want to cherish it.It is not about trying to change it because it was like this, but it is completely what it was before. It's not that I don't know about it, but I think that good things are good, and I think that I'm running towards making good things with this member, so I want to improve myself so that I can become more and more passionate. I have,' commented Koshiro first.
Next, Somegoro said, ``When you think of Onihei, you have a strong image of Kichiemon's uncle. However, although it wasn't exactly the same scene, there was one that was in the same situation as the scene I was doing.From that short scene, I expanded the image of Tetsusaburo as a whole in my own way, and when I thought about Tetsusaburo's character. I try to remember it every time.' 'When my father is on set dressed as Heizo, of course, he's actually my father, but as the role, it's the same person. It's a very strange feeling, it feels like you've slipped back in time.It's a strange feeling when the shooting day overlaps.'

To the question, 'What is Heizo Hasegawa, played by Koshiro Matsumoto, from everyone's point of view?', Mr. Motomiya, who plays the role of Chusuke Sajima, said, 'I am also a fan of Onihei Hankacho, and I often watched Kichiemon's work. However, when Koshiro-san came to the scene the other day, I was already shivering.I could say that I was numb at the scene, but there was something that struck me a little.I forgot the feelings of an actor, and as a fan of Koshiro-san. I was watching. It was cool,' commented.
Jundai Yamada, who plays Yusuke Sakai, said, 'I felt like I was becoming a character called Heizo Hasegawa. He is sharp and crisp, but there is also a playfulness in it, and he is a person outside of the scene. There is also something like playfulness and cuteness as a person, and I think he is a very charming person.' 'It's cool.'
Mr. Asari, who plays the role of Chugo Kimura, also agreed with the story of 'Ochame' and said, 'There are many moments in my head that I think I'm always looking for something interesting. I don't know if it's okay to do it, so I'll make it small (laughs).'
Somegoro Ichikawa, born in 2005, is 18 years old and will play the young Heizo under his father, Koshiro Matsumoto. In response to the question, 'In an era when historical dramas are not often broadcast on TV, please tell us if there is something attractive that young people should watch,' Somegoro replied, 'Look at the work again, Onihei. I felt that period dramas are so much more interesting.As my father said, I think period dramas are a genre that can be seen as fantasy.Even young people at school You may think it's hard to mix it with the history you learn, but I think you can enjoy it if you watch it in the same way you would when you watch a fantasy or sci-fi work.'
Finally, Koshiro said, 'Onihei Hankacho is a so-called capture book. There is a basic plot that bad people do bad things and good people catch them. I think that it is a work that depicts such a way of life.There are connections between people, bonds, compassion, feelings, and there is love and love. I think it's a work that depicts that kind of human drama, and I'd like you to see it.Heizo Hasegawa actually existed, and of course there was the era of Hitsuke Tozoku Kaikata and the Edo period. However, this is still a fictional world, so I have a desire to create a convincing Edo with everyone.Kimono, so to speak... can I call it cosplay?It's also visually enjoyable, Because it is a Japanese historical drama, you can enjoy the four seasons. I am also working on this with the underlying idea that if historical dramas get more exciting, I will be able to help them.First of all, I would like as many people as possible to see Onihei Hankacho. I finished.
