JOJOmenon

In JOJOmenon, a magazine released to commemorate JoJo's Bizarre Adventure's 25th Anniversary in 2012, Tadashi was included with a comment from him talking about what kind of Stand he would like to have and his enjoyment of the series.

“

For work, I think it would be good to have a remote control and speed type stand that could read the client’s needs and present the hair and make-up in an instant, all while handling multiple clients. Something like Cinderella or Atum, while also being a colony stand like Harvest and Bad Company to handle multiple clients. I’m a huge fan and have been reading JoJo without missing a single volume since its inception, so I would be happy if I could use that kind of a stand!

”

“

仕事柄、あったらいいなと思うのは、相手の要望を読み取ってヘアもメイクも瞬時に表現し、同時に何人も仕上げられる遠隔自動操縦&スピード型のスタン ド。たとえばシンデレラやアトゥム神のようにイメージを操作しながら、ハーヴェストやバッド・カンパニーのような無数のスタンドで同時に何人も仕上げる。「ジョジョ』は連載当初から欠かさず読んでいる大ファンなので、そんなスタンドが使えたらうれしいです!

Trivia

• Tadashi's favorite character is Joseph Joestar.
• In an instagram post, Tadashi teased the two visuals for the 2018 Guide Pamphlet for the SABFA school and stated that he had "manifested the stand of hair". In a later post, he put forth the question, “what if women could manifest their own supernatural power to make themselves more beautiful?” He expressed this idea through a ‘vision’ of hair with a will of its own moving make-up brushes and lipsticks freely, as if it was a Stand. He named the Stand, The Makeup (ザ・メイキャップ, Za Meikyappu), and also gave it stats.
  • Destructive Power: A - "Beauty doesn’t need destructive power, but it’s certainly a heartbreaker."
  • Speed: A - "Analyzes faces at light speed."
  • Effective Range: C - "Close range feather touch type."
  • Endurance: A - "The search for beauty is never ending."
  • Precision: A - "Delicacy to the very micro-level."
  • Development: A - "Increase your beauty sense until baptized by time."

• Tadashi was the hair and make-up artist for the music video of Tomoyasu Hotei's song, "Freedom In The Dark", as he is a frequent collaborator with Hotei. In a twitter post by him, he confirms that Jolyne and Sandman are hidden within the video as the look for two of the models.
