Kuroki Meisa as “Daiwa Woman” in new CM
Tomorrow the new commercial for "Daiwa House", Japan's largest homebuilder, starring actor Yakusho Koji (54) will finally go on air and continue exactly where the previous commercial left off.
In the previous commercial, "Heroine The 1st" the fictional staff of the commercial requested Yakusho to wear the costume of their new image character "Daiwa Woman". Obviously he was dumbfounded by their unreasonable request to wear the costume of a female character and refused to try it one. The staff then asked him who else if not him is going to do it and he said, "Why not someone like Kuroki Meisa?" The staff responds, "You really love her, huh?" It ended after that, but in the new commercial, "Heroine The 2nd" we can see that Kuroki actually accepted the love call and puts on the costume, even though her manager (in the commercial) also refused the costume at first.
The fact that Yakusho loves Kuroki or at least that wants to act as her lover sometime is nothing new. At a recent PR-Event for a new "Epson" commercial he playfully told her, "I'd like to play your lover sometime," but Kuroki smartly replied that she would rather play his daughter instead of a lover. It's funny that the new "Daiwa House" commercial is hinting at his words from that event again.
Nonetheless she's doing a great job at filling out that bodysuit of the fictional heroine. "I love the sentai and hero genre and it was really exciting to actually wear one of those outfits," Kuroki was in very high spirits. "I have a nephew and a niece and I wonder if I have the chance of becoming the children's new hero," she added.
Even if children aren't going to look up to her as their new hero, she can be sure to be the new favorite hero of many men including Yakusho. "My heart was throbbing. She was so sparkling and gorgeous," he was excited.
