The only live action movie Leiji Matsumoto ever directed… Don’t know where to find the whole movie besides getting a dvd of it, but did a study of the main protagonist, Adachi.
The manga it’s based on predates Otoko Oidon, which in turn predates Gun Frontier and Captain Harlock. Neat stuff.
#leijiverse#leiji matsumoto#dai ganso yojouhan daimonogatari#literally#the great ancestral 4.5 tatami story#元祖大四畳半大物語#long ass name is long#otoko oidon#男おいどん#松本零士#80s movies#japanese movies#ngl the guy playing adachi in this movie is legit cute#good job on casting. got the side profile down perfectly#art#sketch#realistic#Youtube#also apparently the casting director regarding said actor was like 'he looks just like leiji matsumoto! perfect!!'#which yeah kinda looks a tad like his younger self#and adachi and nobotta are sorta leiji's self insert ocs so again good job on casting.
