33-year old Daigo Kashino was rushed to hospital where he later died
.
The
actor was in a rehearsal session at a studio in Koto, Tokyo, when he
was pierced in the abdomen "with a sword-like object" during an action
scene,
The other actors reportedly heard him groan and turned to discover him hunched over -- but no one saw exactly what happened.
Police are now investigating whether his death was an accident or a criminal act.

is the second incident in recent weeks that has resulted in the death
of a performer. Earlier this month, Italian actor Raphael Schumacher was
declared clinically dead after he was choked in a stage hanging scene that went wrong.
