In 2001 he moved to Japan and began to appear in many minor roles at the movie studio located near his wife's home in Kyoto. These were mostly comedies where he appeared as a gaijin trying to fit into modern day Japanese society. His first period film was the comedy [[The Dog Style Shogun]] where he had a small role as Hattori Hanzo 5. His next film was to be the breakthrough [[Samurai Sexecutioner]], a spoof of the [[Lone Wolf And Cub]] series where he appears as the Security Chief Of The O'oku, Orugasuma Eito. His career was also boosted by a well publicized incident where he prevented a robbery at a liquor store near Toji Temple. This was followed up by three films that comprised the 'Poisonous Seducer' series, all  of which used his real life name as his character's name, a convention that was to be used on and off throughout his career.
