gray ☆ Feb 25 2022 9:32 pm was first introduced to him on just dance 2022 (lame ik but wtvr) through his song koi. when i found out that THAT song was the ending song of a jdrama (we married as a job) i decided to watch it and fell in love with it. now I'm going down a rabbit hole where I'm listening to his music and watching jdramas featuring him ;w; a great way for me to start learning japanese again! and dear lord please change his featured photo ?

lolearlywinter May 22 2021 5:35 am Congratulations on your marriage!!! I'm so happy for both of you. May you guys always showered with love and happiness.

Len Chan May 20 2021 2:40 am Congratulations on your marriage. Hiramasa and Mikuri finally got married in real. Really happy to hear it^^

IijimaAi May 19 2021 3:19 am Dammit. You were only supposed to be pretending to be married to Yui, not actually getting married. LOL. Anyway, congratulations!

Hosh Mar 22 2021 9:57 am Great actor and singer! love him and Yui Aragaki in Nige Haji. Someone please update his profile picture! lol

Kiran Sep 29 2020 1:26 am Fell in love with him in Kounotori and Nigehaji. He's so into the characters Shinomiya sensei and Tsuzaki san. Loveeee him?

Kou Sep 28 2020 7:24 am Watching his blank stoic awkward characters in Nigeru and then Kounodori and then seeing him all jumping smiling laughing dancing in his music videos is really surreal, hahahah ... Love him in MIU404, all the available emotions and kakkoiiness. Get him more role, especially pair him in more projects with Ayano Go, the chemistry really works together.

lala Jul 01 2020 3:40 am I'm on fire mode when watching his acting in MIU404, he looks pretty cool as Shima Kazumi. Looking forward for the next episode!

Vania Mar 07 2019 9:53 pm When I watched Mirai, I felt familiar with the dad's voice. Turned out it was him!

Daelf Oct 16 2018 6:47 pm This guy look like yoo jae suk >_< sometimes i just wanna laugh when i see he in nigeru when camera focus on his eyes ^^

fiona Mar 10 2018 6:38 am i agree chyy

Chy Jan 07 2018 11:22 am He's so cute in the drama Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu xD

jovan May 12 2017 3:08 am is he really the guy who playing as joushiro fodousan in ryukendo/////////

ayya Dec 12 2016 6:33 am i like his character as hiramasa tsuzaki. he is also cute

Hotelier Nov 11 2016 3:20 am I like his acting in Nigeru wa haji da ga yaku ni tatsu. Very good match with Yui Aragaki (as Mikuri san). Anyway he can sing too. I like the ending song for Nigeru haji, and realized that Hoshino Gen is the singer. Ganbatte Hoshino san!

AquaCai Oct 30 2016 8:23 am His acting in the ongoing Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu is so adorable. And charming. Cute! He really looks a bit Korean to me though, but eh. Looking forward to the next episodes!

Wiz Sep 12 2016 11:18 am This guy might be a good actor, but I personally did not feel like his performance during "Kounodouri" was that great. He played that stereotypical "cold doctor" and his acting felt pretty stiff. Nonetheless however, he is good looking.

JD Jan 22 2016 8:29 pm MAI GAHD, I love his supporting role (usually in Kudo Kankuro film)- I never knew He IS a songwriter! His music is awesome! check out his song ~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gcCRAl58u4 supa adorebes- Now I luv him ahhhh!

Rrusty Mar 03 2013 11:02 pm to all who like ryukendo, this isa not the guy who portrays Juushiro Fudou a.k.a. Madan Gunman/Juushi Ryuguno a.k.a. OSSAN/OLD MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TC Mar 03 2013 5:17 am You can see clearly that he is not Fudousan

Terrance chai Mar 03 2013 5:16 am he is not our OSSAN!

Amy Aug 16 2012 5:09 am You are very cool.

meiyan Jun 22 2012 4:28 am this is not fudosan............... I got his profile

DIPTA Jun 04 2012 10:36 am THE ACTING OF GEN AS FODUSAN IN RYKENDO IS AMAAAAZING!
