"Each person has a different way of thinking and measuring things. A 'normal' me might not be 'normal' from the perspective of someone else."
Interviewer intro:
Nito (Tori character)'s emotions are always constant with no emotional outburst that leads to the motive for killing his family. He says his motive as "I wanted a place to put the books". People think "There must be other reasons," but that's "normal" for Nito.
Q: What did you pay attention to when you played Nito?
A: It's easy for me to label the psychopathic Nito as dangerous, or completely different from me. Since I am playing him, I think that what I thought was "normal" isn't "normal" from the perspective of someone else. In addition, the "ordinary" chores for me sometimes can become dangerous. It make me have such kind of thoughts again this time. So, in the end, I didn't think that Nito is so different from me.
Q: A lot of Nito's "smiles" appear in the film.
A: Yes, a good impression smile, an eerie smile, etc..depends on Nito's impression. I remember smiling, hoping that the difference would come out properly. The appearances don't change much but I think the feelings will change a little depending on the timing of the smile in each scene.
Q: When you played Nito, you said that you played without any emotional ups and downs. Did you find it difficult?
A: It wasn't a role that resonated with me, but I didn't suppress my feelings while playing. Majority of people would think "Shouldn't it be like this?". But that's just the selfish first impression of that person. Looking at the story through the reporter Kamoi, I also think that a person can really complete the whole story with just his/her first impression.
Q: Speaking of first impression, aren't you popular person? I don't think anyone dislikes you.
A: Actually, hmm, it's difficult. If you think you're a popular person, I think it's usually not the case.
Q: There's many interesting answers at interviews and press conferences.
A: I'm happy. In stage greetings, I'm not saying what I came up with on the spot. My manager told me, "If you don't say sth catchy, you won't be picked up by media." So I do my best to think about it.
Q: Your remarks are often taken up by the news.
A: It's difficult because I can't instantly make flashy statements (lol). It's easy to just say "Everyone Hello, I'm Tori Matsuzaka. Thank you for today" but the reporters who came to us deliver our work to various people. I think about what is the best every day so that I can say the words that are catchy in a good way.
Q: Matsuzaka-san had the image of an uncommon person. You played a dangerous roles or a little psychological roles but I think it's amazing that the good image of you does not collapse at all. Is there anything?
Thank you!!! (lol) I often talk to my manager about "balance." If you just do what you like, the balance will be biased. If I can do it, I would like to try a work with various colors, and I think that it will be fruitful when I am in my 40s and 50s later.
Q: Matsuzaka-san's comment about Hohoemu Hito.
A: When dealing with people and things, I think that what we believe in can ultimately be the driving force for moving forward. There is no doubt about it. But, I don't think it's good to believe in our own way of thinking just to be overly influenced by it. I think the most important thing is the feeling of belief and the ability to listen. If you believe only in your own feelings, you will sometimes go in the wrong direction, so I think we will need the ability to hear advice from someone out there.
