Character Evaluation
I was a little nervous before meeting with the senior I had always admired, but after seeing me, I found that Koji Yakusho is a very approachable person . I personally like the acting skills and humorous character of the yakusho very much, which even Mifune never possessed. Humorous and intellectual, he won the honor of Mifune Toshiro Award at the Kyoto Film Festival .
