Eiji Akaso (赤楚 衛二, Akaso Eiji, born 1 March 1994, in Aichi Prefecture[2]) is a Japanese actor and model, known for playing Ryuga Banjou in Kamen Rider Build.

He is represented with Tristone Entertainment.

Early life & family

Due to his father's work, Eiji lived in Wisconsin (USA) when he was 1 year old until he turned 4 years old. His father graduated from University of Wisconsin-Madison. He was a professor at the Faculty of Foreign Studies (Linguistic Department) at Nagoya Gakuin University and recently became the president of Nagoya Gakuin University in April 2020. His mother is a piano teacher.[3] His little brother, who is four years younger than him, is studying film production at Osaka University of Arts.

He was strongly influenced by his academic and artistic parents. He started playing piano at the age of 3 until Junior High School. He graduated from a private high school "Toho High School" in Nagoya. After High School Eiji himself majored in English at the same university, but later dropped out to move to Tokyo.[4]

His desire to become an actor sprouted in the middle school and was also influenced by the habit of his family having a movie night once a month. At the age of 19-20, he went to Tokyo and auditioned for a year. The trigger that lead Eiji to drop out of university and to enter the world of entertainment was a call from the CEO of his current agency in 2014. At that time, he was still in university and he had to make the decision, whether he wants to start after graduation at the age of 23 or now. He made a "now or never" decision and dropped out of university to join Tristone Entertainment.[5]

Biography

He belonged to the Nagoya model office "FORM JAPAN" when he was in his teens. He was active as a model and talent under the name Mamoru Akaso (赤楚 衛, Akaso Mamoru).[6] In 2010, he joined the local idol group "BOYS AND MEN" in Nagoya, working on stage performances and regular appearances of variety shows.[7][a] Eiji is said to have left "BOYS AND MEN" in 2011. Originally, he entered the entertainment agency because he wanted to be an actor and not an idol.[9]

He won the Grand Prix at the men's model audition of Samantha Thavasa in 2013, which became the turning point for him to audition in Tokyo at the age of 19.[10][11][12] In 2015, he transferred to his current agency Tristone Entertainment, working as an actor and starring in television dramas and films in his current stage name.
