Story: It's really, 1986... you're a casting manager for Toei's New Tokusatsu Show called
"Kamen Rider IXA" straight from the Shotaro Ishinomori himself. It's pretty much the exact script for the 86' storyline of Kamen Rider Kiva only with more scenes and details.


Now, the case is:
which toku actors from the 80's to early 90's would you hire to portray the roles of each:

Cast:
Otoya Kurenai - Toshihide Wakamatsu (Black Condor/Gai from Jetman)
Yuri Aso - Megumi Mori (Blue Dolphin from Liveman)
Jiro -Takahito Horiuchi (Nobuhiko Akizuki)
Ramon - ???
Ricky - Kouichi Kusakari (Black Mask from Maskman)
Mamoru Shima - Hiroshi Miyauchi (Kamen Rider V3)
King - Yutaka Hirose (Tranza from Jetman)
Maya - Kanako Maeda (Yellow Mask from Maskman)
Future Wataru - Keiichi Wada (Ryuuranger from Dairanger)
Master - Tomihisa Naruse (Yellow Owl from Jetman)

Cast:
Otoya Kurenai -
Yuri Aso -
Jiro -
Ramon -
Ricky -
Mamoru Shima -
King -
Maya -
Future Wataru -
Master -
 
I really loved the original cast. No reason to really change them. The characters just wouldn't be the same without them
 
Otoya Kurenai - Kazuoki Takahashi (Changeman's Change Griffin/Metalder's Kita)

Yuri Aso - Makoto Sumikawa (Spielban's Diana)

Jiro - Shunta Fuchino (Maskman's Kiros)

Ramon - Kazuhiko Oohara (Goggle V's Comboy Haruo/Changeman's Warajii)

Ricky - Strong Kongou (Bioman's Monster)

Mamoru Shima - Jouji Nakata (Flashman's Kaura/Liveman's Bias)

King - Yutaka Hirose (good call, G-Raia913!)

Maya - Kanako Maeda (another good call, G-Raia913!)

Future Wataru - Hiroshi Watari (Sharivan/Spielban)

Master - Mickey Curtis (Spielban's Guillotine)

Ahh I got it now lol

But really to i guess flesh out my point... I would have a hard time seeing anyone else as Otoya because Takeda Kouhei really made that character his (and so on and so forth with everyone else).

If it was made back then I'm not sure who I would choose because i'm just really attached to the current actors and have difficulty thinking of other to play those characters
 
I will dish out the CGI budget "accidentally" to avoid the need to recast and force the whole team to not whore CGI. Nuff said.
 
Really, the only actor that I know of from the 80s is Tetsuo Kurata. I think that he would have been a good Jiro or Riki. Other than that, I dunno. I still prefer him as just Kamen Rider Black/ Restaurant Owner.
 
Why change the cast when the show is already over? And what's with bringing up this random topic all of a sudden?
