Panther Ogata Surprise and Wile Motion Capture at Longhorns
Celeina: There are many more questions I want to ask you, but was there anything in the past that you did that was really interesting?
Moctar: I had a great time working on “London Hearts” (TV Asahi), which I didn’t expect.
Celeina: Do you have any behind-the-scenes stories? As much as you can tell us.
Takano: This was a surprise to begin with, like becoming the fourth member of the trio Panther, right?
Moctar: Yes, that’s right. I was asked to join Panther’s Ogata-san because we have some similarities, such as the soccer game I used to play. I look different from him, he is strong, and the director said that Ogata-san might get jealous when he saw me. But Ogata-san gave me a thumping. And there it was. It was fun.
Takano: I wanted to see this. My producer saw it and said it was very interesting.
Moctar: It was quite a while ago, but many people still remember it.
Takano: So there are a lot of people who recognize you as “that Mokkun.
Moctar: Thank you very much.
Celeina: Also, you mentioned that you had a job that made use of your soccer experience.
Moctar: You know the game “Winning Eleven”? For the first time, I was doing motion capture for a non-employee. At first, I was working on Neymar, Ibrahimovic, and a few other things.
Takano: Wait a minute. You mean Neymar’s movements are Mokhn’s movements?
Moctar: Yes, around 2015. I asked a professional to do some of the finer moves, but the basic moves were done by me.
Takano: That’s Neymar’s inside man. The person inside doesn’t exist in real life, but…
Celeina: All the dots were connected to form a line.
Takano: My life becomes the content. All of my life experiences are utilized.
Moctar: I want to be the “Will Smith of Japan, Moktar of the world.
Takano: Yo! (applause)
Celeina: Since you have such vitality, I was wondering where you usually hang out. Where do you usually hang out?
Moctar: Shibuya, Shinjuku, Omotesando. …… I’m rarely in Hodogaya, my hometown. ……? Yokohama, I guess.

Celeina: Do you have any recent recommendations?
Moctar: ADI” in Nakameguro is a good Nepalese restaurant, but I wanted to have a drink, so I went to a place called “BAR Sugahara Shibuya Honkan” in Shinsen. It seems that Shinsen used to be a prostitute district, and an old house that used to be a waiting room for oiran (courtesans) was turned into a bar. The owner is very nice. They are very kind.
Takano: That’s nice. Are you often in the Shibuya and Shinjuku areas?
Moctar: Yes, I do. I also like to be under the sky, so I’m often in places that aren’t stores (laughs).
Celeina: As expected of the world’s Mokkun.
Takano: Is it almost time? I still want to talk. Let’s go to “Bar Sugahara Shibuya Honkan”.
Moctar: Let’s go.
Celeina: Today we are talking with Mr. Mokhtar, a model and actor. Thank you very much.
Moctar: Thank you very much.
