The video of the exchange between‌ Kabuki‍ actor danjuro Ichikawa (46) and a veteran entertainment reporter at an “interview” (press conference) that was distributed on April ‌4 in the number of views about a month later has been viewed more than 1.1 million times. It’s a press conference ​about the Kabuki ‌performance in May, and the title of the⁢ video is interesting because Danjuro says, “Are⁤ you angry with the reporter who asks you a bad question?” However, from the video, it ⁤doesn’t seem ⁣like he is mad. I asked the person who ⁣asked the question ‍what was going on.

The press ⁢conference was​ about “Dangikusai Satsuki kabuki,” which will start on May 2 at the Kabukiza Theater in Tokyo. The scene at that time is on Oricon’s YouTube channel.

as of May 1, the video has been viewed⁣ over 1.1 million times and counting.

Mr.‌ I (77), an entertainment reporter, who asks rude questions, was called a “reporter”.

First of all, how did Mr. ‌I‍ decide to⁤ participate in the press conference?

“The other day, I ⁣got a request from the person who was in charge⁤ of a morning documentary programme at a TV station, saying, “Mr for me to do it, but he said, “Don’t say that, go away.” Give it to me.”So I decided ‌to go.”

“Ask the person‍ next to you.”

According to Mr. I, he was ‍the first person to ask a question at the press conference.

If you watch the video, you will see the following exchange‌ between Mr. I⁣ and‌ Mr. Danjuro.

“Danjuro-san, it’s been a long time since you had a press‌ conference yourself, ⁣right?”

“No, that’s not true.”

“Maybe I’m ‌somehow‍ misunderstood about this, but…”

“You must have misunderstood, yes.”

Danjuro said with a smile, and the audience burst into laughter.

In addition, Mr.I

“I always give the impression that you ⁤have two children.”

When asked,

“No, I don’t think so.No, ​ask me.”

When⁣ Mr. Danjuro waved his hand to the female reporter next‌ to Mr. I, the reporter said,

“I’m doing it alone.”

He answered, and again the venue‍ was filled‌ with laughter.

Interview: the Future of Kabuki with Time.news⁣ Editor and Danjuro Ichikawa

Time.news‌ Editor: Welcome,everyone! Today,we⁣ have the honor of speaking with one of the most prominent figures in the world of Kabuki,the renowned actor Danjuro Ichikawa. Thank you for joining us,⁣ Mr. Ichikawa.

Danjuro Ichikawa: Thank you for having me! It’s a pleasure ‌to be here.

Editor: Your recent appearance on “Sunday’s Hatsumi Gaku” has generated a lot of buzz. As the 13th generation of the ​Danjuro Ichikawa lineage, how does it ​feel to carry ⁢on such a rich and vibrant tradition?

Ichikawa: It’s both an honor and a heavy obligation. Kabuki is steeped in tradition, and every performance is ​not just about‍ entertainment; it’s about preserving and honoring the history that has come before us. I strive to embody the spirit of ⁣those who played my role before ⁢me, while also infusing my own interpretation into it.

Editor: You mentioned in the program that it was challenging to commit to Kabuki ‌when you were a‌ student.⁢ Can you share a⁤ pivotal⁤ moment ​that solidified your decision​ to dedicate your life to this art form?

Ichikawa: ​ Certainly. There was a time when⁢ I⁢ felt the pressure of expectations and thought about leaving. ‍However,it was during a performance that I had a transformative​ experience. I saw the audience’s reaction—not just enjoyment, but ⁢a deep ‍emotional connection to​ the⁢ story. It made me realize⁣ that I could touch people’s lives through ‍Kabuki.That ⁣moment ignited a passion within⁢ me that I couldn’t ignore.

Editor: That’s beautifully stated. It’s fascinating to note that Kabuki has its challenges in adapting to ‍modern times. You remarked‌ that “it’s quite tough to change things.” What do you see as ‌the biggest challenges facing Kabuki today?

Ichikawa: one⁣ of the main challenges is attracting younger‌ audiences. We live in a digital ​age where instant gratification prevails,and traditional art forms can seem less appealing to the youth. Finding a way to make‌ Kabuki relevant while respecting⁢ its traditions is a delicate balancing act.​ It’s⁢ vital‌ that we innovate without losing the core essence of what makes Kabuki so unique.

Editor: Innovation is certainly key. Speaking of ⁤innovation, ‌your recent press conference generated significant ⁢attention online, particularly regarding your interaction with the entertainment reporter.You asked, “Are you angry with the reporter who asks you a bad question?”⁢ This comment resonated with many. What ‌does⁢ it mean to you to have such candid‍ interactions?

Ichikawa: Humor ​in ‌the ‌arts can open up conversations that are often uncomfortable. By engaging directly with challenging questions, we can demystify Kabuki and encourage a dialog about its relevance today.It’s my belief that we should take ourselves⁣ seriously, but not so seriously that we can’t laugh ⁤or ‍think deeply.

Editor: That⁣ viewpoint is refreshing! what legacy do ‍you hope to leave for future generations of Kabuki actors?

Ichikawa: I hope to inspire them to embrace both the challenges and joys of⁤ Kabuki. My wish is ⁣for them to experience the same emotional connection I ⁢found within the art form. I wont ⁤them to ⁣feel empowered to innovate while cherishing ⁤our traditions. The future of kabuki should be as vibrant and dynamic as its rich history, ensuring‌ that it continues to⁢ thrive.

Editor: ⁣Thank you, Mr. ⁢Ichikawa, for sharing your insights and‌ passion for Kabuki. it’s evident that the future of this art‍ form is in capable‌ hands.

Ichikawa: ‍Thank⁣ you! I appreciate the chance to discuss Kabuki and its place in the world today.

Editor: And ‍thank you to our ​audience for joining us ⁤in this ‌engaging dialogue. Stay ⁣tuned for more explorations into culture and ​the arts with Time.news!
