Satsuki Nakayama (中山 咲月, Nakayama Satsuki, born September 17, 1998) is a Japanese model and actor who is known for their portrayal as Naki in Kamen Rider Zero-One and Shima Nishina in Kiss Him, Not Me. They started their modeling career as an exclusive model for the magazine Pichi Lemon and later became one of the standout models of Japan's genderless fashion subculture.

Career

In 2011, at age 12, Nakayama became an exclusive model for the magazine Pichi Lemon.[2] After seeing photos of Korean model Kaito on a fashion brand website, Nakayama was inspired by their androgynous appearance and began to wear more androgynous clothing, becoming one of the standout female models of Japan's genderless fashion trend.[2]

In 2018, Nakayama made their first television acting appearance in the live-action television adaptation of Chūgakusei Nikki.[3] They later made their film debut in Nunuko no Seisen: Harajuku Story, playing Akihisa Kubo, frontman for the fictional band ORION.[3] In 2019, they played the role of Kaoru in the Y!mobile webseries Parallel School Days, which later gained a theatrical release.[4] In 2020, they appeared in Kamen Rider Zero-One and its direct-to-Blu-ray spin-off series, Project Thouser, as Naki, a character confirmed by producer Takahito Omori to be genderless.[5]

Nakayama was slated to star in the 2020 theatre adaptation of All About J as Rita Barthelme; however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the production was cancelled.

Nakayama is a brand ambassador for unisex clothing brand BLAKICHY and a partner of its sister brand KINGLYMASK. In 2019, they started their own fashion line, Xspada.[6]

Personal life

In 2019, Nakayama came out as asexual[7] and agender[8] on their blog as well as in an interview to Vogue Girl,[9] expressing their desire not to be defined as either male or female.
