Kamen Rider Den-O Kids: 5 Years Later


Because of one Facebook post coming from J-HERO, I realized that Kamen Rider Den-O ended 5 years ago! This cause me to wonder what happened to the kid cast members of the show, namely Kid Ryotaro and Kohana.

The young Ryotaro Nogami also known as Kotaro in the Kamen Rider Den-O the Movie: I'm Born! was played by Takuya Mizoguchi. Seen above is his latest profile photo posted in his official profile. The last time he reprised his role as Ryotaro was in the Cho Den-O Trilogy that aired 3 years ago. According to his blog, he's part of a stage play called "FROGS".


The young Hana, also known as Kohana was played by Tamaki Matsumoto. Seen above is the music video of her single, "Sunshine". Just like Mizoguchi, the last time she reprised her role as Kohana was in the Cho Den-O Trilogy that aired 3 years ago. According to her Japanese Wikipedia page, she is not doing any activity because she is dedicated with her education. She is currently in junior high school.


Lastly, the young Yuuto Sakurai, also known as Yu in the Cho Kamen Rider Den-O & Decade Neo Generations: The Onigashima Warship was played by Ruka Sawaki. So yeah, the young Yuuto was played by a girl. Seen above is a picture coming from a midnight drama series that aired in 2012 where she made a guest appearance.
