Just like NTT DoCoMo, Softbank Mobile also announced their new models and their new commercials starring the well-known "White Family." Actress Ueto Aya is part of this commercial family and as usual she attended the event as their image character as well.
The biggest surprise of the event was the announcement that famed American director and genius Quentin Tarantino would join the family. Known for his movies like "Kill Bill", he is going to appear in traditional Japanese clothes and portray a character somewhat resembling the legendary samurai Sakamoto Ryoma who embraced the Western influence and carried a sword and a pistol (Smith and Wesson), the perfect role for Tarantino. He will join the "White Family" as an uncle of Ueto Aya and his name will be "Tara-chan".
Ueto about filming together with Tarantino, "I was surprised by his tension! His performance as a warrior was great and he ad-libbed his scenes most of the time." Further she added, "Since he is such a kind director, maybe I should ask him about bringing the White Family to Hollywood?"
Tarantino is currently in Japan to promote his movie "Inglorious Basterds" that opens in Japan on November 20th.
