My Take
A man named Taiyo, meaning sun, from Tamano in Okayama, playing Ultraman at barely twenty. Almost too neat. Hero roles are a trap: land one and you risk being that character forever. Twenty-odd years on he is still on Japanese television, both as an actor and as a very public family man who takes the criticism that comes with living openly.
