Shinichi Chiba, who attracted many fans with his martial arts moves and personality, has been dead for a week. But the unexpected death had a huge impact on the rest of his family.
"Father, I didn't think at all that 'I would die.' Always say, 'It's 80 years before I can do what I want to do.' "
Actor Teichiro Wakasayama (56) called Shinichi Chiba (aged 82, formerly known as Maeda Seiho), who died suddenly from the novel coronavirus, "father", and he recalled his sudden separation from Shinichi Chiba.
On August 25, the seventh day of the first day, more than 10 close relatives, including Chiba's eldest daughter, Masei Shuri (46), ex-wife A, and second son, Maeita Atsushi (21), gathered at their home in Junzu City, Chiba Prefecture.
"Although the mourner Manase Tree temporarily kept Chiba's ashes until burial, it was decided to regularly send the ashes to his home in Junzu City for worship before the 49th."
Just like inheriting Chiba's legacy, the eldest son, Makoto Nitta (24), was traveling to the United States for work reasons and had not been able to say goodbye to his father.
"It is scheduled that after Makoto returns to China in October, issues such as the burial time of the ashes will be revisited."
However, Qianye's passionate life for movies is always accompanied by "debt storms".
After Chiba's death, creditors poured into Chiba's home.
In 1990, Shinichi Chiba invested 1 billion yen in production costs, while the director's film plummeted at the box office, with debts of up to 200 million yen. In addition, the financial disputes surrounding the actor training school that opened in 2008 even developed into lawsuits, which eventually led to debts exceeding 30 million yen, etc., and continued to expand. Mr. Chiba's total liabilities are nearly 500 million yen.
Yoko Noji, who married him in 1973, also had to sell her property and land to pay back due to Chiba's debts, and divorced in 1994. Although the debt has now been reduced to about tens of millions of yen, people concerned are worried about whether the Chiba family is still in debt. "
It is reported that in fact, after Chiba's death, the "creditors" flocked to the house.
"Chiba has a wide range of friends and has always been actively involved in the film business, so no one knows the whole picture of his money relationship at present."
Even, Makoto and others, his children had another "riot" because of this.
A person from Shinichi Chiba's fan support association said: "Regarding Shinichi Chiba's grave, some relatives said, 'This is a dream opportunity to make money.'"

"It turned out that there were ancestral graves in Chiba Prefecture, the Maeda family. However, a female fan named O who supported Shinichi Chiba said, "I talked to Shinichi Chiba before I died, and he revealed that he began to ask me to find a land to buy as a cemetery."
Chiba is the eldest son, so it would have been reasonable to visit the grave of her ancestors, but Lady O has been accompanying Mr. Chiba, so relatives and related personnel are also confused" (Former personnel of the Support Association)
On August 20, the remains of Mr. Chiba returned to his home. At that time, it was woman O who was holding the tablet.
She runs restaurants in Tokyo and participates in charity activities. On her SNS, Shinichi Chiba also appears frequently. A magazine asked Mr. O about "buying a grave——。
The truth told for the fans who built the tomb of their relative, Shinichi Chiba, for no reason
"This is not a grave I prepared alone. Chiba himself said, "I like the temples over there," so I wanted to go to the temples in Tokyo. So I introduced the abbot of the temple to Mr. Chiba, and the two got along very well. Chiba was originally another sect, but later converted. "
O explained Chiba's reasons for visiting the temple in this way.
"Because Chiba loves Mt. Fuji very much.... The tomb where you want to be yourself is located in the bottom of Mt. Fuji. I told everyone, 'Do as Mr. Chiba wants'. "
But when asked by a reporter about Shingo Nishida, a disciple of Chiba and representative of jacques (Japan Action Club), he said, "[The grave where he was buried] has not yet been settled."
Because Qianye suddenly went to heaven, he did not leave any will. "My father was very healthy when we met not long ago, and someone who said 'make another movie' couldn't have written his last words when he wasn't infected."
I heard that the only person who wants to build a new cemetery for Shinichi Chiba is O. The survivors were very confused. Family critic Hiromi Ikeuchi said that like Chiba, she died suddenly and without a will, so there are not many cases that bother her survivors.
"Debts can be abandoned, but in this case, even the real estate and relics such as Shinichi Chiba's house cannot be inherited, so the Chiba survivors quarrel endlessly between 'giving up and not giving up'." Therefore, parents should write down the "property distribution" when they are healthy, which can avoid troubles such as inheritance debts or grave problems for their children. Because no parent wants their children to argue after their death.... "
Qianye, who had suddenly passed away, would never want the chaos in his family to be prolonged.
