Kuhaku - Arata Furuta and Tori Matsuzaka, Classy

 Impression on each other

Tori: He's a person who has established his own position and his own things. I don't think there is anyone who can match Furuta-san. I feel that he is unique. I've seen him on stage many times.

Tori: I first came to know Furuta-san in "Kisarazu Cat's Eye (2002)". I was still a student. Furuta-san's role left a strong impact on me, and I laughed every time. Since I started working here, I've gradually come to know that he's an amazing person. 
Furuta: I've known him since he was in "Samurai Sentai Shinkenger". At first I thought, "Tori Matsuzaka is going to play a bear? Aren't we wasting money?" but I enjoyed a lot working with Tori in Paddington. 
Furuta: I think Tori probably a simple guy. Some of the actors who came out from Sentai or Kamen Rider are troublesome.

Tori: Who are you talking about? (lol).

Furuta: I hoped Tori would approach me normally, and when we worked together, he did. I thought it was fortunate. 

Shinobu Terajima's Comment

When we were not acting and talking at a place like a tea house, Tori seemed to be very calm and didn't talk much about himself, we were the only ones who talked. He was listening with a smile the whole time. I thought he must be a good child. 
Thoughts on acting

Furuta: I don't like actors who try to do things on their own. So I just do what the director tells me to do, and then we can finish shooting quickly. I'm glad that Tori is also like that. 
Furuta I don't like actors who say, "Let me do it again. One more time!" Some directors say that they'd wait for something better to come out, but it never does. The first performance is the best. So, I put all my energy into it. 
Furuta: If you don't go all out from the very first scene, you'll never get that tension back again.

Tori: That's right. It's like full throttle.

Furuta: I am glad there's no one like that this time.

Tori: So, who are you referring to? Really~~~ (lol) 

What do you like about each other?
Tori: Also, his communications skills. He can communicate with all people from various occupations from different places. 
Tori: Third, he's very observant. Just listening to our interview today, his powers of observation of people are amazing. He spewed this venom (lol), but I realized that he observes so many people and has a big picture view. I thought it was cool. 
Furuta: About Tori, I like voice, face and his work attitude. He is a good voice actor and his face his beautiful.

Tori: Thank you! (hehehe) 
What about work attitude?

Furuta: Tori, be honest, how many times did you do NG?

Tori: Almost never.

Furuta: See, I don't like those who do NG.

Tori: lololololol 
Furuta: I also don't like those who say "no" to director's requests. I think the coolest actors are those who can say "yes" to everything.

Tori: Yes, they are the strongest actors.

Furuta: Tori is directors' "yes-man".

Tori: hahahahaa
