About the Job
Must be fully bilingual in Japanese and English AKARI is a figure defined by both restraint and intensity. On the surface, they project calm intelligence and control — someone accustomed to secrecy, strategy, and carrying personal stakes that run deep. Beneath that exterior lies an emotional landscape that shifts with precision: the ability to move from composed observation, to unshakable resolve, to being haunted by memory, to near-obsessive pursuit. They inhabit two worlds simultaneously: the grounded realism of lived experience (captured in vérité-style interviews, private conversations, and hotel-room encounters) and the heightened atmosphere of a thriller (stylized recreations, mythic imagery, fragments of memory and myth). This role demands a performer with gravitas, emotional depth, and adaptability — someone equally comfortable in the intimate, unscripted feel of documentary realism and the heightened demands of symbolic or stylized sequences. Essential Qualities: • A commanding yet subtle presence that can carry weight without overt display. • Facility with shifting emotional tones, often within a single scene. • Ability to embody both truth (interviews, realism) and myth (archival flashbacks, poetic recreations).
