 The actor is a very good actor and I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing him in the future. I thought, &#8216;Oh, he&#8217;s a very good actor, and I&#8217;m sure he&#8217;s going to sell more and more.
I was thinking, &#8216;Oh, he&#8217;s a very good actor, and I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing him become more and more successful,'&#8221; said actor Shosuke Tanihara on &#8220;Mezamashi 8&#8221; (Fuji TV).

Former actor Yohito Wakayama, 20, was arrested by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department on suspicion of destruction of a corpse in connection with the discovery of the burned bodies of a married couple in Tochigi Prefecture. The suspect played the childhood role of the main character played by Junichi Okada in NHK&#8217;s 2002 historical drama &#8220;Gunshi Kanbei. Tanihara also appeared in the drama.
Wakayama is suspected of setting fire to and damaging the bodies of restaurant owner Ryutaro Takarajima, 55, and his wife Sachiko, 56, in Nasu Town, Tochigi Prefecture, on April 16. The suspect, Aya-ken Hirayama, 25, who has already been arrested, called the Wakayama suspect &#8220;Kirato,&#8221; and said that he and the suspect, Mitsunori Kang, who was also arrested for destruction of a corpse, &#8220;got to know each other around the end of the year and the beginning of the new year.
 &#8220;I met him around the end of the year and the beginning of the new year, and had a few drinks with him.
The day before the incident, Hirayama asked the suspect to leave the house. On the day before the incident, Wakayama and Kang are believed to have borrowed a car from Hirayama and driven from Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo, to the crime scene in Nasu Town.
The &#8220;murderous act&#8221; committed by a child actor who even appeared in a major TV drama. At the time, however, it was not known that the child actor had auditioned for the drama.
 Auditions for the drama series are a meritocracy, with no discernment. The same is true for child actors, and if they are to play the childhood of the lead actor, the competition is tremendous. It is no exaggeration to say that Wakayama, who had won the audition, had a bright future ahead of him.
Wakayama was an actor with a promising future.

In fact, Wakayama steadily built up his career with high-profile films such as &#8220;The Witch&#8217;s Delivery Service&#8221; (starring Fuka Koshiba) in 2002, NHK&#8217;s &#8220;The Guardian of the Spirits&#8221; (Haruka Ayase) in 2004, and &#8220;Cloudy with a Laugh&#8221; (Sota Fukushi) in 2006.

According to an entertainment manager who knew him at the time
 He was a mood maker on the set. He was also a mood maker on set, and actress Miki Nakatani, who co-starred with him in &#8220;Gunshi Kanbei,&#8221; was especially fond of him.

Such a &#8220;promising&#8221; young man was seen on the TV screen as a changed man.
Wakayama was sent to prison on May 2. Wearing a gray top and bottom sweatshirt and a mask, he got into a car with a stern expression on his face. He had a large tattoo on his neck that looked like a feather.
 The relationship between Wakayama, Hirayama, and Kang is &#8220;tenuous,&#8221; and they are merely members assembled for the case. Wakayama and Kang are believed to have been asked to dispose of the bodies by the leader of the group, who was instructed by their &#8220;employer. They are said to have been paid around 2.5 million yen.
The deceased Mr. and Mrs. Takarajima had several troubles over the store they managed. According to the aforementioned reporter
 According to the above-mentioned reporter, &#8220;There is a limit to the amount of investigation that can be conducted against the Wakayama suspects. The authorities are investigating the surrounding area to see if there is anyone who may have harbored a grudge against the couple.

The direct reason for Wakayama&#8217;s &#8220;fall into the dark&#8221; is not known, but &#8220;something unusual&#8221; occurred between his junior year of high school in 2006 and his freshman year of high school in 2008. According to a reporter from a sports newspaper

According to a sports newspaper reporter
 &#8220;As soon as she entered high school, her clothes and hairstyle became more flashy, and she started hanging out with so-called &#8216;bad-guy&#8217; guys. Even though he was underage, he started drinking alcohol and going to clubs&#8230;&#8230;. I can&#8217;t help but think that this incident is an extension of his friendships.&#8221;
He said, &#8220;I can&#8217;t help but think that this incident is an extension of their friendship.
Wakayama retired from show business after appearing in the stage production of &#8220;Twilight&#8221; in 2008. At that time, there was no announcement from the major production company he belonged to.
 Usually they make an announcement on their website or social networking sites,&#8221; he said. As soon as the incident was discovered, the staff of the office contacted here and there, saying, &#8216;We have nothing to do with this company anymore. We don&#8217;t know anything about it. They treated the case as if they were touching a tumor.
Mr. and Mrs. Takarajima, who were killed, had never met the suspect. It seems that they had to give up their lives for the sake of a reward of a few million yen.
