His former stage name was Katsura Sanshi. Sanshi received this name from his shisho (master) and one of the celebrated postwar Kamigata Rakugo greats, Katsura Bunshi V. Sanshi's "san" came from, originally, being Bunshi's third deshi (pupil), and "shi" came from the second half of shisho's stage name. Sanshi succeeded his shisho's stage name in 2012.
Sanshi was born in Higashi, Sakai, Osaka on 16 July 1943. His father died when he was an 11-month-old baby. Despite early unfortunate circumstances, his efforts in the entertainment business have brought him success.
Sanshi is on the board of the Kamigata Rakugo Kyoukai (Rakugo artists and performers' Guild in Kansai region), and the director of Yoshimoto Kogyo.
In the rakugo world, Sanshi is known mostly for his "New rakugo". He has been a guest professor at Kansai University.
