Life and career

Tono's father was Japanese rock musician and singer-songwriter Atsushi Sakurai.[3] His parents divorced when he was a year old.[4] Tono graduated from Komayose Elementary School[2] and Ohba Junior High School[5] in Fujisawa, Kanagawa Prefectural Hakuyo High School, and the Faculty of Law at Keio University.[6][7] He did not read a lot in school and was rather more into sports. For a short while he was in a high school band.[2] He later moved to Tokyo.[2]
