They are running a HUGE promotion campaign over in Asia. After all, this is the BIGGEST FILM EVER in China. The movie will open Thursday (12/16) there. Tons of pictures and video clips, along with some English translation of the news bits are available on my site below.

Sanada-san is mentioned very favorably in the news. In the press conference, for example, he waits to be seated until everyone sits down, and the press people were impressed by his couteousness. He makes a speech in Mandarin. He is friendly and clever in TV appearances and interviews. Particularly in this delicate China-Japan relationship, a Japanese fan living in China reports that he is proud to have Sanada-san as Japan's representative in this film.
