I got a lot of new followers recently, so allow me to reintroduce myself.
I'm Darrel! I've been acting, creating, and entertaining for all my life and this visual reel is only a snippet of what I've done that fits in Twitter's video limit! 😅
Thank you again for following!
Anime is FINALLY mainstream. Kids in the past were bullied and ridiculed for liking anime because it wasn't easily accessible and so it was considered wierd.
KIDS DON'T HAVE REGULAR INCOME.
KIDS CAN'T PAY FOR ANIME.
I don't want their lives to become what it was for us.
Crunchyroll is eliminating free ad-supported streaming starting with the spring 2022 season. Those who want to watch new or continuing series will need to subscribe.
I'm not okay. This hit me way harder than I thought it ever would. Please understand that I'm not in a good mental space to respond to anything right now.
May the power protect you.
Always.
Years later, I am still OBSSESSED with the mid-air spin wire work. He could have spun in one clean movement, but he sticks his leg out and it offsets his rotation and IT LOOKS SO COOL.

I'm thrilled to announce I am joining the

FOR THOSE ASKING FOR CONTEXT. This was a special of the Super Sentai series, the original Japanese source material used for Power Rangers. The heroines are from the respective Hurricanger, Magiranger, and Dekaranger seasons all shot years after their seasons had ended.

OH WAIT A MOMENT.
It didn't click until I saw your photos, but this woman had it out for me too! I think a year or two back? I was a guest at an anime convention in Torrance and this lady told me to go back to my country and all that junk!.. Huh.
Voice actors!
Let's put it out into the universe!
What are existing characters you'd love to voice that don't have a voice yet and/or have yet to be dubbed into English?
Yasuhisa Furuhara is an absolute treasure. ❤️

"8 people are dead. Why are you talking about this now?"
Why did 8 people have to die for us to even have a discussion about Anti-Asian racism to begin with?
#StopAsianHate
The tokusatsu genre has the best live action superhero tv show choreography. I'm telling you.
An incredible fight scene with all the bells and whistles and never sacrificing a single element of it. Action, storytelling, intensity. Everything.
I'm sorry. My Twitter feed is slowly going back to normal?
Excuse me?
I don't think this issue is over.
Racism didn't just suddenly go away because the murderers of
#GeorgeFloyd
were finally charged with murder.
Stepping into the shoes of Pax Forsythe in
#BeybladeBurst
#QuadStrike
was infuriating.
I hate him.. Because of how much he reminds me of me.
Before I explain this, I need to make VERY CLEAR, I mean no ill will or anything like that to my fellow acting peers and casting.

All performers deserve respect. It’s an incredibly hard profession to pursue and the risk takers who create deserve to be acknowledged. All of them. 👏👏👏
#sagaftrastrong
To even think that I provided voices for a company that doesn't believe Taiwan is a country and holds that as a fireable offense make me sick.
How utterly embarrassing.
You ever have someone attempt to run you over for being Asian?
I have.
You ever fight for your life because someone said if they kill you the virus would stop?
I have.
You ever have to fight off people for attacking an elderly woman for being a "ching-chong bastard"?
I have.
If we can bully a studio into changing a whole ass character design for a large theatrical movie, we can bully them into photoshopping a name on a poster that should have been there anyway.
Stop disrespecting voice actors. Jfc.
Shaped the way I view film and he's just genuine and kind. I will always be grateful I get to voice in his work.
Much love to Koichi Sakamoto. ❤️

Today, in 2021, I was cast as the lead of a show that will, probably, never see the light of day.
I'm so proud of this project and all the work put into it was incredible.
You know who you are, thank you taking a chance on me. ❤️

I'M SO TIRED OF FEARING THAT MY PARENTS ARE JUST GOING TO BE STABBED WHEN THEY'RE SHOPPING FOR NO GODDAMN REASON BECAUSE OF HOW THEY LOOK.
SO. GODDAMN. TIRED.

The gifts have already started piling up and seeing them has me in tears.

I'll never forget when Renn Kiriyama made an appearance at Japan World Heroes and said, "I'm so happy to learn there Kamen Rider fans here in the US, but I'm confused. How do you watch it?"
Panel room:
I have been struggling to find the words all day.
You've heard my story over and over (and I'm sorry);
I want to be a Power Ranger.
I've trained to be a Power Ranger.
Power Rangers raised me to have the biggest hero complex; many times to my own detriment.
1/6
I'm not okay. This hit me way harder than I thought it ever would. Please understand that I'm not in a good mental space to respond to anything right now.
May the power protect you.
Always.
ALRIGHTTTT. STORY TIME.
I haven't said anything publically because I have family on here that I know will worry, but because of our dispshit leader, I keep fighting people that attack me because they think I'm the cause of COVID-19. Here's an instance: (1/6)
Lupin the Third vs. Detective Conan the Movie is a pretty great watch for fans of both.
It plays with the expectations for this type of crossover by creating pairings that aren't the 1st you'd expect, but work pristinely well.
The reason for that is because the Metal Generation was literally insane. Like, actual "Dragonball Z" nonsense. Yeah, the Original and Burst Generation had so many cool and ridiculous moments, but the Metal Generation had the shock value of a Beyblade parting Biblical seas. 🤷♂️
There is a lot of Beyblade nostalgia posting on my timeline rn and it's crazy how NONE of it is for the OG series.
Plastic gen fans legit have aged out of the discourse that's insane lmaooooo.
Standing in a Starbucks line playing on my Nintendo Switch... TELL ME WHY the cashier excitedly asked me what I was playing, and when I replied with "Digimon Survive!" they looked so disappointed.
"oh."
WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN??! 😤
Say it with me.
There is nothing wrong with calling Japan's tokusatsu hero programs "Japanese Power Rangers" as a point of reference.
When Super Sentai is adapted outside of Japan, it is localized as Power Rangers.
The typical viewer doesn't know Kamen Rider, they know Rangers.
Possibly because it sounds like Power Rangers is taking the credit over the thing that created it. Saying "Japanese Power Rangers" doesn't automatically come with the 'actually the other war round' correction.
And Rider is mostly a different show, so...
I can't even trust people in fictional media to say whether or not they've been bitten by zombie, and you want me to trust real people to tell me they've been vaccinated?
BREAKING: Fully vaccinated people no longer need to wear masks or physically distance indoors or outdoors in most circumstances, CDC plans to announce, according to two sources familiar with the recommendations.
Alright, look. If you have motion sickness, take something before hand... BECAUSE HOLY CRAP THIS MOVIE WAS INSANE.
JANUARY 16, 2019. MARK YOUR CALENDARS.

#DBSuperBroly
If you want people to know tokusatsu other than Power Rangers, YOU have to do the work to properly, respectfully, and kindly educate them.
Stop complaining that Power Rangers is their only point of reference when you haven't done anything to change that fact.
Okay, wait. Hold on.
Do we wanna plan this out? Watch it weekly and make it trend as if it were airing as a new season?
Not like a watchparty, but like everyone watches on their own at a certain time.
Set up dumb marathons up to the debut of the Battlizer?
Skip a week for golf?
I've felt this way for a VERY long time, but was always never the "right time or place" or "this is a different battle".
Rebecca said this perfectly.
This isn't out of ill will of any actors. Get that bag.
We are so dismissed for clearly Asian roles and no one speaks about it.
TLDR; authentic representation as asians in VO.
twitter's char count sucks so we're doing it this way. i'm not the most eloquent person, nor am i ever publicly vocal. but against every ounce of my being, i have to say something.
*i'm not interested in debating trolls online.
Hey, I'd like to know who it is are sending death threats and are upset about the
#NVT5
winners so that I may blacklist them from any future projects I may or may not be casting.
I will not tolerate this unprofessional behavior.
Oh BOO HOO. You're tired?
I'M TIRED.
Tired of being targeted by racists that think I spread COVID-19 because I'm Asian.
Tired of wondering if my Black best friend will make it home to his 10 month old son every day.
We're all tired of this shit.
This isn't over.
No excuses.
Full transparency, I spent the last hour crying in the shower. The possibility of making this the last time I audition and not making it breaks my heart. I am in such a bad spot in my life because I had given up so much just to be ready to audition for the show I love so dearly.
QRTing because last time people were making fun of their pronounciation of Pokémon.
This IS the way to pronounce it.
Though, I've heard of multiple instances where the brand pronounciation isn't enforced like this.
US commercial for Pokémon Heart Gold and Soul Silver featuring Dylan and Cole Sprouse (2010). Being remakes of the original Pokémon Gold and Silver, there are a lot of new features like the PokéWalker, which is shown off here.
"The Prince of Tennis" is the reason I play tennis.
It is the reason tennis is my favorite sport.
So, it is with great honor that I announce that I am the new English Voice of Fudomine's "Net Player Killer", Kyosuke Uchimura.
Watch it now on
