Was not expecting a tokusatu actor to show. Pretty wholesome actually, tbf there are toku actors who did a bunch of bad shit like Shunsuke Takasugi who was Kamen Rider Super-1 who for some reason scammed money from his fans claiming to be well the character, many fell for it, then in 2017 he disappered.
There is also the recent scandal of Gokai Sliver aka Junya Ikeda did some fraud which makes no sense to many people since he was successful, and a seiyuu aka voice actor. https://www.tokyohive.com/article/2...es-the-suspense-unfolds-in-another-fraud-case
As a toku fan it can be disheartening.
Wow, I didn't know about this recent, uh, career development of Junya Ikeda's? The progression from sentai hero -> KR villain -> IRL criminal is ironic.There is also the recent scandal of Gokai Sliver aka Junya Ikeda did some fraud which makes no sense to many people since he was successful, and a seiyuu aka voice actor. https://www.tokyohive.com/article/2...es-the-suspense-unfolds-in-another-fraud-case

Hope you are enjoying W, its currently my favorite tokusatsu show.The ch was very wholesome till the end. I was expecting something like Ootsuki getting his comeuppance in some way, but it was nice to see him and the other genuinely getting along with Kuramoto.
I wouldn’t call myself a diehard fan, especially when I see how knowledgeable and dedicated other toku fans are, but I do genuinely enjoy Super Sentai. I think I started back in college with me watching Super Megaforce reruns before going to classes in the morning, then I kept going down the iceberg once I discovered there was a Japanese version to it all.
Kakuranger is the goat in my option (it’s also the only series I finished lol). In the future I’d like to finish Dairanger, Gingaman, and Kamen Rider W.
I did not know he was a KR villain, actors similar to Junya but did not become a criminal Kane Kosugi who was Ninja Black of the Kakurangers, also known as American Ninja was Ultraman Powered, then became Kamen Rider Chimera a movie villain.Wow, I didn't know about this recent, uh, career development of Junya Ikeda's?

Puts KR Black's actor Tetsuo Kurata persistently harrassing fans for money amongst other unsavory things in mind as well... I'm happy to see that the red ranger in this chapter was able to preserve the gang's image of him as a hero ☺️
Omg I had mixed him up with Solomon to be honest, thanks for catching that!I did not know he was a KR villain, actors similar to Junya but did not become a criminal Kane Kosugi who was Ninja Black of the Kakurangers, also known as American Ninja was Ultraman Powered, then became Kamen Rider Chimera a movie villain.
Was going to be the Ninja Red but was bad at Japanese, over the season he learned Japanese and speaks it fluently. Just recently with his felllow Kakurangers did an anniversary movie.
There is Keisuke Soma who was Shinken Gold, and Isaac/Kamen Rider Solomon and is retired from acting at 37.
