Anime Characters Come To Life With This Japanese Actor

This is Ryunosuke Kamiki. Besides being a terrific actor, he’s also excellent at live-action versions of anime and manga characters.

The 23 year-old has an impressive list of acting credits, and he’s often appeared big screen adaptations of popular manga and anime, such as 2015’s wonderful Bakuman movie.

Kamiki is also starring in the upcoming live-action March Comes in Like a Lion as Rei Kiriyama and in the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure movie as Koichi Hirose

Via Twicolle and Twitter user kamikki555, here are comparisons between Kamiki and the characters he’s brought to life.
