Behind the Kabuki World Shaken by the Ichikawa Ennosuke Incident, the Noh Players’ Famous Kanze Family Conceals the Dumping of a Mother’s Body by Her Son

The traditional performing arts have been rocked by another shocking incident.

Ichikawa Ennosuke, a kabuki actor, was arrested for assisting his parents in committing suicide, and his first trial was held in October. His trial was held for the first time in October. A dark shadow has been cast over the Kabuki world, as the production of Super Kabuki II “Oni no Kane” was cancelled, which was said to be a sure-fire blockbuster hit.

Behind the scenes, the world of Noh, another traditional art form, is also in turmoil. On October 19, a son dumped his mother’s corpse in Yamagata Prefecture.

On October 19, Torataro Enomoto was arrested on suspicion of dumping his mother’s body on the grounds of an elderly care facility in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture. The suspect, Torataro Enomoto, normally lived in Tokyo, but this facility was run by him and he had not visited there in two years.

Investigators found the body of his mother, Mariko Enomoto. The suspect, Torataro, has admitted to abandoning the body, and the police are investigating the case with the possibility of murder in mind,” said a local newspaper reporter.

Mariko was not a resident of this facility and lived in Tokyo. In other words, the question remains as to whether the mother and child went to the trouble of dumping the body in Yamagata despite the fact that they both lived in Tokyo.
