New Abarenbou Shogun:Arisa Nakajima, who plays the role of Oniwaban, reveals a behind-the-scenes shot with "Lord" Matsudaira Ken: "It was truly an honor."

Actor Arisa Nakajima, who appeared in the January 4th broadcast of "Shin Abarenbou Shogun" (TV Asahi), updated her X (formerly Twitter). She uploaded a photo of herself with the lead actor Ken Matsudaira and co-star Manabu Hamada.

The show will be the first new work in about 17 years in the popular period drama series "Abarenbo Shogun," in which Matsudaira plays Tokugawa Yoshimune, the eighth shogun of the Edo shogunate. Nakajima and Hamada play Yoshimune's "garrison guards."

Nakajima posted a behind-the-scenes photo of himself with Matsudaira and Hamada taken at the end of filming, saying, "It was a true honor to have the opportunity to work alongside His Lordship as his admired gardener."

Comments on this post included, "It's been a long time since I've really enjoyed such an exciting period drama!", "The spectacular sword fighting was amazing," "The way he dodged the spear while hiding in the attic was cool," and "If it becomes a series, I hope you will continue in the role."
