Misato Tanaka has been appointed as an ambassador for 『Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Cultural Festival 2023』 to be held from next October. She is known as a native of Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and looking back on her past activities, I realized once again that she is a wonderful actor and talent.
They played a married couple in the morning drama 『Aguri』. Talk show with Mansai Nomura
Kyogen actor and kyogen performer Mansai Nomura played the role of Eisuke Mochizuki, the husband of Misato Tanaka in the NHK television series 『Aguri』, in which she played the heroine, Aguri. 『Aguri』 began airing in April 1997, when Tanaka Misato was around 20 years old.
Mansai Nomura, General Director and Special Ambassador of the 『Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Cultural Festival 2023』, held a talk show with Misato Tanaka at the Ishikawa Music Hall and Traditional Japanese Music Hall last December.
Misato Tanaka played Oichi no Kata, sister of Nobunaga Oda (Takashi Sorimachi) and wife of Nagamasa Asai (Shingo Kuzuyama), in the NHK historical drama 『Toshiie to Matsu: Kaga Hyakumangoku Monogatari』 (2002). Oichi-no-Kata is a woman who lived a turbulent fate, becoming the wife of Katsuie Shibata, a leading vassal of the Oda family, after Nagamasa broke with Nobunaga and committed suicide after losing a battle against the Oda forces.
Tanaka Misato also dubbed the Japanese voice for Choi Ji-woo, who played the heroine Jung Yu-jin in the Korean drama 『Winter Sonata』, which triggered the Yon-sama boom.
He also starred in the films 『Ito』 (Kinshiro Ogino, 2018) and 『Godzilla x Megaguirus G Annihilation Operation』 (2000), 『The Bridge Over Tomorrow: 1989 Memories』 (Takafumi Ota, 2018) and the stage 『Nekketsu! Bravan Shoujo』 (2017) and 『Adabana ni Mizuyari』 (2021), and has appeared in a variety of other productions.
He is also active in variety shows, and once appeared on 『Secret Kenmin Show』 as a representative of Ishikawa residents to introduce Kanazawa Curry.
She was a special MC at 「Tokyo modern times Vol.3」 held at Iino Hall in Tokyo in June this year, and was photographed with former Takarazuka Revue member Ruru Mizusar, a member of the Snow Troupe.
Recently, her enthusiastic performance as a mother who can see her ghostly son (Kaito Yoshimura) in the movie 『Human』 (directed by Ryudairo Yamaguchi), which was released this summer, was very impressive.
Produced more hat brands
「jin no beat shite cassie」, a hat brand produced by Misato Tanaka, will start sales in spring 2022.
The first product, a thermo cap, has a rough knitted fabric that provides moderate breathability, and its simple design is recommended for men as well, as it is not too casual and can be enjoyed with mature styling.
Also worked on selection for Kanazawa Opera’s 「White Threads of the Waterfall」 selection
『Kanazawa Opera 「White Threads of the Waterfall」 Selection』 will be held on November 23 (Wed., holiday) at Kanazawa Opera Theatre, based on Kyoka Izumi’s 「Giketsu Kyoketsu」 (Gishi blood and chivalry), script by Madoka Mayuzumi, direction by Yuki Negishi, music by Akira Senju, orchestra by Orchestra Ensemble Kanazawa, chorus by the Kanazawa Opera Chorus.
