My Take

I love that Daigo Matsui refuses to pick a lane — he writes scripts, directs films, runs a theater company, and stages plays, like one guy quietly doing the work of four. There's something I find disarming about a Keio grad from Fukuoka whose stuff doesn't feel polished or aloof at all; instead it scoops up the dumb, raw, sweaty feelings of being young and not quite knowing yourself, and just lets them sit there honestly. At 164cm he's not towering over anyone, but bouncing between stage and screen like that takes a greedy, restless appetite for telling stories, and honestly that's exactly the kind of artist I root for.
