Why Aren't Toku Actors Cool Anymore? Anonymous 04/20/2025 (Sun) 06:56:29 No. 1389
Back during Showa and the 00's the majority of Kamen Rider actors used to look cool and like CHADs(picrel). Now they all look like faggots. Why is this?
Let's see what you look like OP.

>>1389 I'm sure Takumi was considered a twink back then.
>>1642 gquux in a nutshell
Kenzaki was literally sucking cock before becoming blade.
>>1389 >Why is this? Different sensibilities I guess. War, punkish, tough and badass attitudes were still hip with kids (even if they were generally kind and nice people). That said, Takumi and Souji are the exceptions to the rule. Otherwise, most of the early heisei MCs fall well into the 'pretty boy' archetype: Godai (so pretty housewives were watching the show for him), Tsugami, Shinji, Tsukasa, Wataru and Kenzaki are not exactly 'chad material' at least in the typical sense.
>>2106 Takumi and Tendou are twinkier than Godai.
>>1389 Because the entire Japanese actor industry is run as an extension of thier idol industry. The actors chosen now reflect current trends for male idols.
