Matsuyama Kenichi won the Best Actor Award at the 64th Mainichi Film Awards for this role in the film Ultra Miracle Love Story. The awards ceremony was held yesterday. Aside from winning the award, he was also given a new car. He laughed and said, "I would like to take the people most important to me out on a drive." Reporters were quick to ask if it was Koyuki he was implying. He replied seriously this time, saying "Yes. She also said that it's great for me to win the award." Both Konishi Manami and Wakamatsu Setsuro were present at the awards ceremony. Konishi accepted the award for Best Actress, while Wakamatsu picked up the award for Best Film for the movie Shizumanu Taiyo, which he directed.
As well, the 31st Yokohama Film Festival and the 83th Kinema Junpo Awards held a presentation ceremony and a press conference respectively.

Maybe more importantly, the Legend looks like it might be kicking off a new styling direction for the company with a big, bold, chromed company logo around back and an aluminum shell that we suspect feels awesome in the hand -- particularly if it's pre-production aluminum. More on this one as we get it; in the meantime, check out a shot of the back after the break.
