Eiji Akaso, what if you were placed in a group under extreme conditions? "I will try to read the atmosphere!"

In the Friday drama "Pending Train - 8:23, Ashita Kimi to" (TBS series / every Friday at 22:00) starring Yuki Yamada, the new challenge is Akaso, a hot-blooded and chivalrous young firefighter. It is a character with a charm that is close to the public image and straightness of feelings. We interviewed Yamada and Moka Kamishiraishi about their commitment to this film, which has many hard locations.

In this work, strangers who happen to ride on the same train are suddenly caught up in an unprecedented event, and live desperately in extreme conditions where there is no radio waves and no water or food, trying to return to their original world. A completely original, unpredictable survival entertainment. Yuto Shirahama, a firefighter played by Akaso, is full of a sense of justice even when placed in an unpredictable situation, and is a role that is gentle and considerate of those around him and demonstrates leadership. When I asked him how he felt when he read the script, he said, ``There are some CG parts, but recent technology is really amazing, so I didn't have to worry about that at all.'' I thought it would be difficult to move," he reveals. "In this situation, if you don't have a proper 'axis' such as who you are talking to and what you should do if each person is really playing their own role, you will be swept away or become just an audience. I was reading thinking that it would be very difficult to find that kind of balance,” he recalls. Even after starting filming, he feels difficulties, but he says, "Since the impression changes depending on the position, etc., I often talk with the director and the cast" and overcome it. Yuuto, who plays the role, explained, "I want to save people's lives no matter what, having experienced something in the past. He's like a student council president." "The events of the past are shocking, and because of this trauma, I try to get involved in various things, and I think my feelings take precedence," he said, showing his understanding of his actions.

Yuki Yamada and Moka Kamishiraishi, who will be co-starring this time, are both the first co-stars, but it seems that a good relationship has already been established through the location. “I have to be the most solid in my role, but I often fall or slip in places with bad footing (laughs). Firefighters!” Regarding Yuki Yamada, who has a completely opposite personality in the play and often conflicts with him, "I heard from the older people around me that he was a 'hot and good person.' street. “There is a part of Naoya (played by Yamada) who is shy, but at the same time, there is also a part that is relatively close to Yuuto (played by Akaso). I want to see more of what's inside." On the other hand, regarding Kamishiraishi, "I've been watching dramas, and the one I've seen recently was a comedic work, so I thought he was an interesting person, but he's just as funny." talk. ``It's not a gap, but I want to enjoy the fun more,'' said each of them. In this work, one day, the characters are suddenly put under extreme conditions, but Akaso himself says, "I'm confident that I'll drop out soon." "I was hit by pollen at the shooting site, so it's difficult. Yamada-kun and Moe-chan would be the first to drop out," she laughs. 　

When asked how he behaves in a group that is placed under such extreme conditions, he replied, "I try to read the atmosphere. I will cooperate with people."My! my! ``If you say, it will be a fight, so I will try to maintain order,'' was the answer. Starting with Naoya played by Yamada, Yuuto struggles to return to his original world while the thoughts of those around him with various circumstances and backgrounds intersect. In the future, as Yuuto's past trauma becomes clear, expectations will increase to see what kind of new face Akaso will see.
