<p> One evening in early June, we spotted actor Eiji Akachu (29) dressed in a salaryman&#8217;s suit in Jimbocho!　It appeared to be a location shooting for a drama, as there were staff members and cameramen with what looked like scripts around him. Akachu will play the lead role in the July drama &#8220;Kocchi o muite yo mukai kun&#8221; (Nippon Television Network), his first starring role in a serial drama series on the GP belt. On this very day, she was on location for this drama, filming a scene in which she runs into a cab with actress Momoko Tanabe (23).</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Akachu made his acting debut in &#8217;15.&#8217; In 2008, he starred in &#8220;I Can Become a Wizard if I&#8217;m a Virgin till I&#8217;m 30&#8221; (TV Tokyo), which became a huge hit around the world. Riding the &#8220;chirimaho&#8221; boom, Akachu quickly became well-known, and in the second half of 2010, he appeared in the NHK TV series &#8220;Soar! (2010), she was cast as the husband and childhood friend of the heroine, played by Haruka Fukuhara (24).</p>
<p><strong> She got her big break in the morning drama series when she was 28 years old. I was 28 years old when I got my big break in morning dramas, so you could say I was a late bloomer. She had been active in the second and third positions until then, so it was more like she came on slowly rather than &#8216;like a comet.</strong></p>
<p><strong> Last year, Sunday Mainichi (&#8217;22 Feb. 27 issue), which featured Akachu on its cover, sold like rarely seen in recent years. Even now, it is being sold for more than 1,000 yen on the Internet.</strong></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" Some say that the range of her roles is too narrow."></div>
<p>On the other hand, there are those who say, &#8220;He is a good actor, but his range of roles is limited.</p>
<p><strong> She is good at playing gentle characters with a strong sense of justice, making the most of her sweet mask. As in the drama in which she starred, her image as a &#8220;good girl&#8221; is well established.</strong></p>
<p><strong> Perhaps it is because her father is the president of Nagoya Gakuin University, which is a wonderful family background, but I don&#8217;t get the impression that she plays villainous roles. She has been heavily promoted by her agency, but fans are saying, &#8216;It&#8217;s about time we saw her in a different role.</strong></p>

Cute.</figcaption></figure>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> Another actor who was marketed as a &#8220;good boy&#8221; character is Taori Matsuzaka (34), but Matsuzaka has successfully turned into an actor.</p>
<p><strong> Matsuzaka&#8217;s father is also a university professor. His father is also a university professor, and he is disciplined strictly. In her early career, she played the role of a nice guy, but in the movie &#8220;Nihon no ichiban nagai hibi&#8221; (Japan&#8217;s Longest Day) in 2003, she played the role of a major who plans a coup d&#8217;etat to oppose the end of the war. She then expanded her range of roles to include a wet scene in the R18+ rated film &#8220;Brothel Year&#8221; and a creepy murderer in &#8220;Impossible Crime&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p> Will Akatsukasa climb the ranks as a &#8220;good guy&#8221; or will she turn into an actor like Matsuzaka? First of all, we will be watching her performance in this film.</p>
