    "...which turned out to be false..."
    No one ever apologized to him. He went through all that bullshit over a LIE and ended up so upset he stepped away from acting. That never sat well with me.

    I think it's completely possible that they replaced not because the allegations, but because he retired. This way, if they ever want bring Tanimura back they won't have to make an excuse for him looking completely different.

    Narimiya look hotter and younger but more of popstar vibe.
    But Toshiki one look more badass,More cop vibe,More emotion plus,now good at cheering on karaoke. Not to mentioned that his taunt and battle grunts felt more powerful like dude really fight someone. While Narimiya one is too quiet.
    So yeah,After getting all remastered collection games,I'd say Toshiki-san did it way better.
    (Imagine he was in 5 and teamed up with Shinada. Man,That would be cool.)

    Narimiya returned from his retirement under new alias for some project. It's great but, if RGGS remember Tanimura, I hope they stick with Masuda. And maybe give Narimiya new role for compensation.

    • @MattRogan28
      @MattRogan28 Год назад +22

      I think mostly they use old audio from the OG game and Tanimura's new actor has a higher-quality microphone
      To be fair they were working all 3 remasters so slip this might through the crack but yeah QA so check if the sound mixing was aright

    I played the remastered and didn't understand why everyone kept calling him a pretty boy, since even though he's handsome, his features aren't delicate as to describe him as pretty; but the previous actor fits the bill. I don't mind the new look though

  • @nyodesu
    @nyodesu Год назад +24

    I still like Hiroki’s appearance more. There’s just something about his looks and performance. The Remaster one isn’t bad by any means, I do like his performance (even if yes it’s a little over the top sometimes, though I suppose that’s just the nature of the games in general, so maybe it fits), I think it’s more just design of the Remastered Tanimura that rubs me the wrong way, reminds me of an old fusion between Yuya and Yagami.
    I dunno, call me old-fashioned, but I’m a Hiroki guy and I played the game on PC for the first time via the Remaster with the restoration mod.
    It’s that Narimiya got dunked like that. Just goes to show how fickle one’s reputation is and how things to go sour and ruin things for someone so fast…

  • @JosephJoeseph
    @JosephJoeseph Год назад +19

    I think people comparing the two actors aren't realizing that him just being replaced like this is incredibly disrespectful to him and his performance. It'd probably be heartbreaking to have the performance you gave your all into just erased and be filled in by another guy, especially considering that it was a false allegation. Toshiki gave a great performance of course, but I can't support the way they did hiroki.
