Ken Daito, director and star of the much talked about Showa-style special effects hero social action comedy film - Transport Dragon - Powered Human Battle Courier, featuring Shinzo Hotta and Hiroshi Fujioka as voice actors, is a former Japanese champion of the Gong Fighting Cup arm wrestling tournament, former director of the Osaka Prefecture Arm Wrestling Federation, a member of the grip strength celebrity list, and the Japan He is also a former director of the Osaka Prefecture Armwrestling Federation, a member of the celebrity grip strength list, and the No. 1 grip strength of action actors in Japan. He loves Japanese action movies of the 1970s and 1980s and strength training, and finally created the hero Battle Courier, who wears a steel array on his head and a grip strength belt on his torso.

Based on his experience and hardships of earning a living as a part-time transportation worker while working as an action actor, the dark organization in the movie "Battle Courier" is Gokuhai! (misdelivery?).


At first glance, one would think that he is only aware of Kamen Rider, but he is also aware of Ultraman, in which aliens appear.

In his childhood, he admired Kamen Rider and Ultraman, and in the upper grades of elementary school he admired Bruce Lee and Yasuaki Kurata. Furthermore, in junior high school he admired Jackie Chan and learned Shorinji Kenpo, but after injuring his left knee, he concentrated on arm wrestling.


However, he covered his right knee with strength training, and at the age of 27, he joined Kurata Action Club Osaka, the action team of his idol Yasuaki Kurata, to learn action, but he left Kurata Action Club Osaka after surgery on his deteriorating left knee.

However, he did not give up and continued his career as an action actor, and now he has been in contact with big stars such as Hiroshi Fujioka, Shinzo Hotta, Yasuaki Kurata, and Jackie Chan.


The film "Battle Courier" makes full use of director Ken Daitoh's real-life experiences at a shipping company, as well as his love and passion for action.



■What the film "Battle Courier" conveys

The film "Battle Courier" is a social action comedy film that combines social issues and heroes in the year 2050.

The setting is the transportation industry, where the declining birthrate, aging population, labor shortage, and power harassment are becoming more serious.

The main character is Hate Mitsurugi, a part-time transportation worker who is a special effects maniac and yearns to be a hero.

When he is called into the president's office for a mistake at work, he is chosen to monitor an imperfect power suit.

However, this power suit was developed to fight the dark organization Gokuhai.

Shippu Biken decides to make full use of this suit to fight against Gokhai's plot.

Through his encounters with many friends, he grows and learns the importance of friendship, love, and overcoming difficulties.

In the movie, special effects hero action, period drama action, and karate action are fused together to create powerful battle scenes. At the same time, social issues are comically depicted in the film, making viewers think about the challenges of modern society.


The film is directed by Ken Daito, assisted by Daisuke Nishiyama, and written by Chihiro Daito, and stars Ken Daito, along with Shinshin Tokumaru (Nara City Tourism Ambassador), Nobuhiro Togashi (General of Ryozandari Karate-do Federation), Fuminobu Shirakawa (bodybuilding champion), Daisuke Nishiyama, Tadashi Suzuki, Yukio Someno, Tsukiko Shinohara, Daisuke Sato, Hiroshi Fujioka, and Shin Hotta Hiroshi Fujioka, Shinzo Hotta, and others.


I think "Battle Courier" is an innovative work that combines seemingly contradictory elements of social issues and heroism.


Set in the transportation industry, a world that is familiar to us all, the film comically and seriously depicts the problems facing modern society, such as power harassment and labor shortages.

The action scenes, a fusion of special effects hero action and period drama action, are powerful and never boring to watch.

The interaction between the unique characters is also attractive, and the film is filled with laughter and emotion.


Through the film, we believe it will raise our awareness of social issues and give us a chance to think about our own lives and future.


The Battle Courier" is a social comedy, but it is also a work filled with hope.

Please come to the theater to see it and reflect on your own life through the activities of the main characters and their growth.
