A preview of the fourth episode (to be broadcast on January 30th) of the drama series "Private Banker" (TV Asahi, Thursdays 9pm), starring actor Toshiaki Karasawa, has been released, announcing the appearance of "entertainment industry legend" Masaaki Sakai.
Sakai will appear as a special guest and play Hisamatsu Yasuo, a leading figure in the political world who takes an interest in Subaru (Yoshida Uronta), the second son of the wealthy Tenmuji family and a member of parliament.
On social media, comments about Sakai's appearance included, "Sakai Masaaki next week?! That's crazy," "Sakai Masaaki next week. They must have way too much of a budget lol," "Sakai Masaaki is awesome in the preview for the next episode," and "Lately I've been getting the impression that Machaaki is a villain lol."
Shingo Katori also appeared in the Thursday Drama "Japan's Number One Jerk Salaryman" (Fuji TV, Thursdays at 10pm), starring Katori Shingo, which led to comments such as "Is Machaaki going to appear in both?" and "I saw Machaaki in the preview for Private Banker, and then he appeared again in Japan's Worst Man, and I was confused."
