Speaking of Kamen Rider Fourze.....The Daily Yomiuri has interviewed Sota Fukushi, who plays Gentaro Kisaragi AKA Kamen Rider Fourze himself! It turns out a talent agency discovered Fukushi through his photos in a hair magazine. If that wasn't a surprise, it also turns out that prior to auditioning, Fukushi had never watched a Kamen Rider show before!
Nonetheless, he was still able to impress producer Hideaki Tsukuda: Quote:
Hideaki Tsukada, a producer at Toei Co., the company behind the TV show and film, was present at the audition. "Fukushi isn't a calculating person when it comes to his appearance. His manner of expressing himself directly was very attractive. His brilliant smile fit my image of Kisaragi," Tsukada said.
Quote:
When Fukushi told his parents about passing the audition, they were even happier than he expected. His mother said, "I can strike the [original] Kamen Rider pose," and then did so. Kamen Rider was the first installment of the series, airing in 1971. Fukushi's father, a Kamen Rider fan, was thrilled, saying, "This is really excellent."
His parents' reactions reminded Fukushi that Kamen Rider is a popular series that has lasted more than 40 years. "It was a privilege to become a character my parents have followed. I vowed to portray a Rider who can encourage all viewers," he said.

Quite frankly, he did. He was funny, over-the-top, and in space. He broke a lot of typical Rider conventions and made them work. Besides, He is my friend .
