My Take
Okay, here's the thing about Gō Morita that I can't get over: he started as one of those idols getting screamed at by fans, and somehow ended up the guy who quietly walks onstage and makes a whole theater hold its breath. That's a wild left turn, and honestly I'm here for it. There's this slightly prickly, hard-to-approach edge to him that, the second the lights hit, flips into pure magnetism, and it feels almost unfair how well it works. He can sing, he can dance, he can be funny, and then he turns around and acts the floor out from under you. He barely talks about himself in real life, but inside a role he's electric, and that gap gets me every single time. A Saitama kid, a stubborn Pisces, who became this much of a real artist? I love it.
