King Kong’s Akihiro Nishino Talks About His Special Relationship with His 10-Year Love and His Feelings Toward Hitoshi Matsumoto
He thought they went shopping together at a convenience store, but he left her waiting on a bench for an hour while he walked around a park.

“Hey, isn’t he that famous YouTuber?”
In mid-June afternoon, passing pedestrians couldn’t help but take a second glance at Akihiro Nishino (44) of “King Kong,” strolling casually through the streets of Tokyo. Dressed in training wear and drawing attention from onlookers, Nishino headed towards a personal gym. After sweating it out for about an hour, he met up with a woman with brown hair. The two began walking and chatting together.
“The person with Nishino was his girlfriend, A-san. As Nishino himself has revealed, they met at a cabaret club where she worked, and they started dating around ’11. They openly acknowledge this ’10-year love,’ and Nishino has mentioned it several times at events,” a sports entertainment reporter said.
Halfway, they stopped by a convenience store to grab hot snacks before heading to a bustling park filled with couples and families. One might think they were enjoying a picnic atmosphere, but this is where Nishino’s eccentric behavior began.
“In the park, Nishino started walking in circles around the 500-meter outer perimeter route while playing with his smartphone. Meanwhile, the woman with him was left waiting alone on a distant bench,” a student at the park observed.
