Let's make this birthday one to remember.

Happy Birthday, Takaoka Sousuke! From surviving the wild chaos of "Battle Royale" as Hiroki Sugimura to ruling the schoolyard brawls in "Crows Zero," you've shown us that no one masters intense action scenes quite like you. Seriously, your characters have faced more drama than most people experience in a lifetime—and you've done it all with style!

Here's wishing you another year filled with epic roles and unforgettable moments. May your birthday be free of any battle royales or high school gang rivalries—just cake, laughter, and good times. Keep rocking those iconic roles; you're truly timeless!
