Nationality
editIt appears he holds sole Japanese citizenship, though he is based in Taiwan. I have updated the lead sentence accordingly. Though nationality wording tends to be on a case-by-case basis, there are notable examples like Alia Bhatt and Katrina Kaif where it was agreed upon that they should be called "British" because that is the sole citizenship they hold.
Furthermore, AFAIK, Japan has strict laws against holding dual citizenship, and he's said that he's Japanese. Clear Looking Glass (talk) 12:10, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
