Speaking of Tamaki Koji, Hong Kong people or people who listen to Cantonese pop songs are no strangers! Alan Tam, Jacky Cheung, Leslie Cheung, Danny Chan, and Priscilla Chan have all covered his songs. (Such as Burgundy Heart, Half Moon, Li Xianglan, Infatuation Accident, Refuse to Play Again)
Tamaki Koji made a movie adaptation of the manga in 1989, “The Right Song” by Masahiro Suematsu (serialized from 1986 to 1991 in Weekly Young Jump). The movie was released on August 12, 1989.
There is a scene in the movie where Yuichi Ichijo, played by Koji Tamaki, is waiting for a bus at a gas station. Unexpectedly, Kamen Rider BLACK RX appears to give him a ride. In the movie, it can be seen that the double compound eyes on the front of RX’s car ACROBATTER are not illuminated, but are illuminated by the movie lights. Tamaki Koji also asked: “Is it okay not to turn on the lights?”, RX also responded: “Because I am a Kamen Rider”!
Kamen Rider BLACK RX was aired in 1988, so the 1989 movie naturally used the latest rider at the time! But you may not know that the RX leather actor in the movie is actually the famous “Takawa Seiji”? Takaiwa Seiji is best known as the resident Heisei Knight holster actor. His first role as a leading knight was with AGITO, but I didn’t expect that he wore Kamen Rider RX in 1989! Of course, he is not working on the holster for RX’s TV series, but Kamen Rider BLACK RX in the above-mentioned “Right Music” series.
Takaiwa Seiji joined the Japanese action actor agency JAC (now known as JAE) in 1986 as the 16th batch of students, officially starting his career as an action actor. In 1992, he served as the holster actor for Dragon Emperor Renja in “Dinosaur Power Rangers: Beast Runner”. But many people don’t know that he actually worked as a holster actor for RX in 1989. Because it was a similar easter egg in the movie, it was not recorded, right?
