==Early life== Born into a large and renowned Kabuki acting family from the Kansai region (more precisely Osaka and Kyoto), his father was Toshio Hayashi, a well-known kabuki actor and film actor (known for starring in films in the jidaigeki genre) and his mother was Reiko Kitami, a film actress with an extensive list of roles in cinema and in different genres. He is also the great-grandson of Nakamura Ganjirō I and the great-great-grandson of Nakamura Kanjaku III, two of the most important Kabuki actors of the Meiji era.

Due to this family relationship, he is related to some of the most important Kabuki actors of the Showa and Heisei eras, such as Nakamura Ganjirō II, Sakata Tōjūrō IV, Nakamura Ganjirō IV, and Nakamura Senjaku III.
