Yuji Oda is not a “good-looking guy,” but… Yuji Oda’s heavy body and “crying face” are still highly praised by the audience.
Yuji Oda (55) is playing a supporting role for the first time in 30 years in the much-talked-about drama “Sikkou! 〜(TV Asahi) aired its first episode on July 4, and many were surprised to see Oda in a supporting role for the first time in 30 years. The story is about a man who is in love with a woman who is in love with a man who is in love with a woman.
The story is a legal drama depicting the world of a “magistrate,” a government official who seizes and confiscates property, money, and real estate. Sairi Ito (29) plays the main character, Hikari Yoshino, who is unexpectedly assigned as an “executioner’s assistant.
Oda plays her buddy, Tatsuru Obara, an executioner who is not fond of dogs. Obara is also a “rookie” who has only been a court clerk for one year and is not exactly competent,” said a person involved in the drama production.
When Hikari visits her new apartment after finding a new job, she finds a suspicious man peeking through the mailbox. This middle-aged man with a large, aged bag slung over his head, a shaggy head, a bandage on his cheek, and a weary look on his face is Tatsuru Obara.
Obara is treated as a suspicious person by Yoshino, and he is clearly distraught when he retorts. In the scene where he runs as fast as he can, his body is heavy and he is out of breath and exhausted. Just before the execution, he runs away in the night, and he also makes the mistake of failing to receive his commission-based salary, which makes him cry. Oda’s thoroughly unattractive appearance caused many on the Internet to exclaim, “I’ve never seen anything like that before!” and many voices of admiration were voiced along with their surprise.
Oda’s seemingly dull appearance is refreshing.
Even without speaking, his acting ability to convey his thoughts with his “pauses” and “eye contact” is as impressive as ever.
Although he is supposed to play a supporting role, as expected, Mr. Oda was the star of the show.
The most common comment was,
The scene when he first appears in the movie, he’s wearing a coat and he’s Aoshima, so that’s what got me.
The running scene was exactly like Aoshima’s 20 years later!
Many fans seemed to recall Oda’s role as Sergeant Shunsaku Aoshima in the “Bayside Shakedown” series (Fuji Television).
He is a powerful, hot, and good-looking detective who can get the job done no matter what the situation. The wrinkled, khaki-colored coat he always wore was called “Aoshima Coat,” and young people at that time imitated it. This time, he wears a calm, wrinkle-free black coat, but his tired performance reminds us of Aoshima 20 years later, and at the same time, many fans felt that Oda was declaring himself an uncle.
(Entertainment writer) “FRIDAY” has photographed Oda on numerous occasions on location. His appearance was always filled with a sense of power, and his eyes had an aura of glare and overflowing energy, but at the “Sikkou” location shot this April, Oda’s eyes always praised a gentle smile, and the way he looked at Ito was just like a father’s. He was never a good-looking old man, but a new and attractive man. We look forward to seeing more of Oda’s acting, which is never the same as that of a good-looking old man, and which exudes a new charm.
