7 Ikemen Of Ultraman Appreciation Post: Takuya Negishi

Born on March 12, 1996, he entered the J-Entertainment scene in 2009 as a member of Watanabe Entertainment's all-male multi-talented group, D2, considered the little brother group of the D-Boys. He played the lead role of Hikaru Raidou in the 1st Ultraman series under the Shin Ultraman Retsuden era, Ultraman Ginga in 2013. Then, he returned in 2014 for Ultraman Ginga S & appeared in 2 episodes of Ultraman X in 2015.

 

After his Ultraman stint, he appeared for 2 episodes of KR Ex-Aid in October-November 2016 & March 2017. For a teaser of the Ultraman Expo for 2018, he & 3 other Ultraman acts from the Shin Ultraman Retsuden Era (Uji Kiyotaka, Kensuke Takahashi & Hideo Ishiguro) returned & did VA roles of the Ultraman alter-egos for the mentioned event. For 2019, he'll be on the upcoming movie, Lapse.

Today's episode for Ultraman New Generation Chronicle focused on 1 of the Kaijus based on an episode from Ultraman Ginga S where an office worker ended up becoming a Kaiju, befriended a little boy & almost put Hikaru & Shou in trouble.
