Biography

Arakawa's parents are drapers. He is an individualist actor who plays an active part in the appearance of chubby body form and round cut, and he was named Jozu Arakawa (荒川 上手, Arakawa Jōzu), but due to depending on circumstances such as many misreading of names, he took a kanji letter from his real name, and renamed it to his current name (both of his names are presided by Otona Keikaku and named by Suzuki Matsuo).

Arakawa had made many appearances in films, dramas and advertisements. He played his first leading role in the film Fine, Totally Fine released in 2008.[2]
