I've heard that it was liver cirrhosis. Terrible news to hear though... Rest in peace.

That is truly sad.
He was one of my favorite actors on that show.
My thoughts go out to his friends and family.

This is very sad. He was so young and did a great job in 555. RIP

I did a triple take when I saw the forum headline and couldn't believe it until I read the news post for myself.

Holy ****. Wow. This is just. Unbearable. Unfair. Unjust. There are no words. One of the actors from one of my most beloved Kamen Rider series is now no more... I. Still can't fully believe it.

OMG NO! Faiz is my favorite series and I loved his character!

I wish there was something we could do to show our respects
