You are tasked with re-casting an old toku show from the 20th century that will be REMADE SCENE-BY-SCENE. Who do you cast?
RULES
1. Don't just give a name, give us AT LEAST one reason why, you chose that person for a reason. 2. Don't give us a whole elevator pitch of what the story is gonna be, again a scene-by-scene remake. Just give us who would be a good pick in your opinion for which show as who and why. 3. As the thread title suggests, 20th century toku only, please. I was considering up to 2010 but 20th century seems like a nice cutoff. Shows that started airing or was screened in theaters in Japan circa 2001 and onwards are not acceptable. 4. If you wanna do just one character that is fine. If you wanna do more that is fine too.

For starters here is my pick.
Himitsu Sentai Gorenger Tatsuya Kishida from Ryusoulger as Tsuyoshi Kaijo/Akarenger. While I may not be a complete Ryusoulger fan I loved Kishida as Bamba and I think that stoic vibe he had going would be a good fit for Akarenger. Gekisou Sentai Carranger Ryutaro Okada from Kamen Rider Zero-One as Minoru Uesugi/Green Racer. Knowing the man can speak some mad Kansai dialect I would love to see him go full Kansai as Minoru. And just thinking of him as Minoru in that one episode where he hauls himself all the way to Hokkaido, the most northern area of Japan, to get back the Giga Formula? That would be amazing.

Nishii Yukito as Tendo Ryu I can definitely see him doing Ryu's self-righteous behavior very well. Sakuragi Nachi as Yuki Gai Yeah, he gets to play another character called Gai but this is the more transparent kind of a**hole. Watanabe Keisuke as Ooishi Raita He could put all that IWAE energy in to playing the enthusiastic farmer for sure. Ayase Haruka as Rokumeikan Kaori She's played roles like this many times, she can definitely handle the strong princess type. Shinjo Yume as Hayasaka Ako Sena and Ako are pretty similar so I think this makes sense. Makino Michiko as Odagiri Aya She has history fighting bad guys so she would be a good fit for a strong and wise mentor.

Looking at it now Yamato Kinjo who was Nossan/Kyoryu Blue might be a good pick too but I am up for actors trying out different characters much like how Takashi Hagino went from Akira/Changerion to Asakura/Ouja or how Mitsuru Karahashi went from Kaido to Hayato/Calibur. Nachi is a no-brainer, dude is convincing as Gai/Black Condor. Yukito I am not familiar with but I will take your word for it, and Haruka I can see her as Kaori having seen her play the soft-spoken, prim and proper lady type in a good chunk of her work.
