Yujiro Ishihara Kuden: My Life's Testament Otaru, Shonan, the Sun Tribe, yachts, fights, Nikkatsu, marriage, success, debt, serious illness, and then survival... If I were to list the episodes, there would be no blank spaces in my life. It was all youth... A "testament" from Yujiro Ishihara. This is the first book to be published after his death. Unpublished tapes, in which he looked back on his 52 years of life over a long period of time, were discovered, and his view of life is revived. The first public release of his turbulent "autobiography" after his death. Childhood in Otaru, youth in Shonan, the Sun Tribe, yachts, fights, love, marriage, independent production, success, failure, debt, serious illness, and then survival──. There, is Yujiro Ishihara, a natural man who lived without being controlled by anyone and without controlling anyone. In the final chapter, a notebook he kept until a month before his death, just before he passed away, was published with the permission of his wife, Makiko. "I can see Ishihara's heart in the remaining words," she says in the commentary. From a review: I feel like I was able to understand his way of life even more deeply. By watching the movie at the same time as reading the book, I was able to see his gradual growth from a face that still had a youthful innocence, and I was moved by his struggles against various obstacles. I wish he had lived longer. His brother Shintaro Ishihara, his wife Sae Kitahara, Tetsuya Watari, and movies and TV are discussed. Was it The Black Sun? Wow, there was such a story behind it!? I was quite surprised to read that episode for the first time. And I thought, what an amazing life he lived...
