No. 2 on the “Top Ten Talented Actors” list! Tokio Emoto, a movie geek actor, gives off a unique aura in Shinjuku at night after watching a movie.
In mid-April, a man stood in front of a movie theater in Shinjuku. He was a tall man with black hair that extended from his black cap to his collar. He wore silver-rimmed glasses and had a mustache. Emoto grew up in a family of actors: his father is Akira Emoto (74), his brother is Tasuku Emoto (36), and his mother is Kazue Kadokae (deceased).
The whole family is known to be quite the movie geeks,” Tokio said in a previous interview. Tokio once told me in an interview that the family rule is that if you watch a movie on DVD, it is not a movie, and they always try to see movies in the theater.
On that day, Emoto came out to a movie theater specializing in Japanese films. However, on the same day, Emoto updated her Instagram. There, along with a photo of a poster for the American movie “AIR/Air,” which was showing at another movie theater,
[I know how it ends, I know. That’s why. Damn it! Bane Affleck! And yeah! マッッッッドディモォォォオオオン！！〉
he posted a comment. I wonder how many movies he watched that day…. After leaving the movie theater, Emoto walked inconspicuously along the edge of the brightly lit downtown street, but it seemed that she could not erase her unique aura, and a number of people she passed looked back at her.
On February 10 of this year, “Architect,” which conducts surveys on the popularity and influence of celebrities, released its “Ranking of the most talented actors” based on data from fiscal year ’22. Emoto is attracting so much attention that he was ranked second. Incidentally, No. 1 was his sister-in-law, Sakura Ando (37), whose movie “That Alien” starring Rinya Nakamura (36) is scheduled for release on May 19. Emoto plays one of the four siblings along with Nakamura, Sairi Ito (28), and “Bananaman” Yuki Himura (50). Among the talented actors in the cast, Emoto has the most distinctive personality. We look forward to seeing more of his work.
