At the interview, we also talked regarding how to spend the year-end and New Year holidays. Botan recalls, “I ate them during the New Year’s holidays (lol).On New Year’s Eve, I ate soba noodles, and on New Year’s Day, I ate osechi ryori.” When Botan said, “I’ll save money,” Shinnosuke agreed, “I’ll save money, too.”
Shinnosuke bluntly said, “I didn’t eat Toshikoshi Soba or Osechi, I just played games all the time.” Danjuro said with a wry smile, “I didn’t eat soba. I guess I don’t want to live long and thin, but rather to live thick and long.For New Year’s, I just ate the delicious herring roe and that was it.” He said with a bitter smile, “I have to reconsider Keiko as well. Other than that, I played freely to my heart’s content during my free time. I’m not angry. I think games will become an important content in the future. So it’s naive for parents to say things like that. That’s what I thought,” he declared.

Danjuro said, “It was all regarding Keiko.” “After the name announcement of Minamiza, I came back and worked hard to memorize my lines.On the 29th and 30th, I did Keiko.On the 31st, I ate soba noodles and slept.On New Year’s Day, the Kabuki world was still greeting people due to the coronavirus pandemic. Since no one around me was allowed to do anything, I just read the script and went to sleep.I started going to sleep from the 2nd day,” he said, thinking back to how it ended with him resting and going out.
Thoughts on 2024. Danjuro’s resolution is, “I want to spend as much time as possible with his family.” “I think as we get older, we each have more time.From now on, we will be able to travel together for the next few years.With that in mind, my father’s idea is to do our best to have fun as a family this year.” ” he expressed his thoughts.

This year marks the 11th New Year’s performance at Shinbashi Enbujo. Danjuro said, “It’s one of our annual events.It’s the first stage of the new year where we decide to stand on stage with a new feeling without getting used to it.It’s an important New Year’s holiday that makes me want to go on stage with great care. ”, he said heartfeltly.
300 years following his death, Chikamatsu Monzaemon’s masterpiece “Heike Onnagoshima” will be reworked with a new interpretation and production. The subtitle of the title, “Onai Asao Genpei,” reads “Oyako no kizuna naka mo genpei,” and it is not only “Kikaigashima no Ba Shunkan,” which is still being performed, but also the essence of the original work. The work is interspersed and painted on a grand scale, and the main theme is that even in turbulent times, “it is oneself who decides one’s own destiny, not heaven,” and depicts the bond between a parent and child and a husband and wife who protect a new deep love. go.
