My Take
I'll always picture Junya Ikeda standing dead center as Captain Marvelous in Gokaiger, all swagger and grin, the pirate-red lead daring you to look away. There's a particular kind of confidence you only get from carrying a Super Sentai season at nineteen, and he clearly soaked it up. What I love, though, is that he didn't park there. The Osaka kid kept stretching into voice work, then circled around to writing and building his own stage stuff, which tells me the spotlight was never the whole point for him; the craft was. People who can shine out front and quietly construct the thing from behind tend to age well in this business. I get the sense he'll keep slipping in solid, low-key work for years, and I'm happy to keep an eye out.
