Favourite Hero Age Type

[Shougo B'Stard]

Tendou isn't really the pretty-boy type...

What? That's about the only reason Mizushima was cast! They sure didn't settle on him for acting or fighting skills! This says it all:

(Hero Vision, the magazine showcasing the pretty boys of current tokusatsu in cheesy poses for the housewives)

 

[Bolt]

But he doesn't just walk around on the show batting his eyelashes!

Geez, you don't have to take it out on me just because you're ugly or something.

I think, more or less Bolt meant Tendou the character, not the actor who plays Tendou, which ain't the same thing.

And I think ryuuseipro was talking about the actors chosen to play the heroes, not the characters. Who would you want in your corner in a fight -- Hiroshi Fujioka or Takayuki Tsubaki? Would you want a total crazy ass-kicker like Shun Sugata, or an anorexic like Kento Handa (granted, Handa could do some damage with his long nails)?

I'm confused. Maybe because I'm a girl, I took this topic as "what age heroes do you like to see on your screen each week?" and not "heroes should always be *insert age here*"

So yeah, if the characters are /good/ I won't complain if they are in their teens. But I personally prefer seeing older guys on TV.

Exactly!

I'd rather have a real damned martial artist. :anime:
