Interviews with stars in Japan are ten a penny, but this isn’t the case the other side of the water. In English speaking media, hosts generally never get to meet the actors or crew from a show or movie they are reviewing, ignoring the fact foreign movies never really get any publicity. Tokusatsu, as we all have the shared pain for, never gets any kind of recognition in our apart from the odd reference to the original Mighty Morphing team. This news series will bring you rare and relatively unknown English interviews with some of our beloved stars.
This is the seventh episode of Adam & Joe Go Tokyo, an English documentary series where British comedians, as the title states, Adam & Joe go to Tokyo. In this part of the show, it features the pair trying to become famous in Japan, previously going to Tokyos Matrix preimere and going on dates with celebrities. This time, they manage to land a ‘role’ in Kamen Rider Faiz: Paradise Lost movie, where they interview Kento Handa, a.k.a. Takumi Inui.
If anyone does manage to spot them in the movie, please email us.
