One Ok Rock’s Taka and Ed Sheeran Dine on Ultra-Luxurious Teppanyaki in Azabu-Juban
The charismatic four-time Grammy Award-winning singer was spotted in Tokyo at night, under the radar.
The charismatic Grammy Award regular showed up in Tokyo at night and enjoyed the time with his best friend – and the time with his best friend.
In late January, English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran (33) was visiting Japan for his first concert in four years and nine months. Next to him was Taka (35) of “ONE OK ROCK,” with whom he has had a close relationship both publicly and privately, and passersby were astonished by the sudden appearance of the world-famous star.
On the same day, the two appeared in Azabu Juban and visited an ultra-luxury teppanyaki restaurant with a members-only membership that charges customers more than 40,000 yen per person. About two hours after entering the restaurant, Ed came out of the restaurant, finished his fan service, and got into a waiting courtesy car.
After that, they moved to Shibuya and stopped in front of a karaoke bar, where they enjoyed a 30-minute stay, exchanged a few grievous kisses, and headed home.
Ed and Taka are well known for their close relationship, as they have appeared as guests at each other’s live performances and co-produced the theme song for the movie “Rurouni Kenshin: The Final Chapter” at Ed’s private studio in the UK. During their visit to Japan, they often posted on SNS about their Pokemon cosplay and sightseeing.
The day before the sumptuous dinner, the two were spotted at a nightclub in Shibuya, where Taka hosted a secret live show and announced the special guests in advance. …… To our surprise, Ed was there. The superstar was surrounded by his best friends and fans.
Surrounded by his best friends and fans, the superstar seemed to have had a hot night in Tokyo.
