Only in Gaiden Kaiteiban, which sadly we have no footage of. But yes he did.

Hmm ok I stand corrected. He also played Kunzite at the Super Spring Festival. But that was never released on video either. It was just a musical that was part of a larger Sailor Moon event where the anime voice actresses were also featured.

Ryuuji DID play a lot of roles in his Myu career. He did play some silly minor villain roles, like Death Ra, MC Fly, and Kyaosu. But he was also the original Tiger's Eye and played Undead Berserk/Tomoe and Baron Gilles de Rais in the Dracul Arc (Last Dracul Jokyoku and original TnM respectively). He finally got a big villain role in his final Myu, Ai no Sanctuary, where he played Big Bad Dark Nibiru. He ended his myu career as the 7th longest running performer overall.

There's an adlib scene in the Final First Stage Senshuuraku where Yuuta (as Evil Endymion) makes Ryuuji show off all his parts from the last few years. It's pretty funny. (Especially since Yuuta and Ryuuji host the Hozonban Video).

Ryuuji also, along with Yuuta, narrated the Best Songs Collection CD, a CD of the best SeraMyu songs up to that point (early 2000), as voted by fans. Also, apparently they re-used his Chaos voice in Le Mouvement Final! (I originally thought he actually appeared in the myu, but other people told me they just re-used his voice-overs from Eien Densetsu)

He's done some other stage work too, if this profile of him is anything to go off of (this is a Google Translate of a Japanese page):

He's also done a bit of voice acting (he played Reiji Shinjou in the Prince of Tennis anime) and I think he was in some tokusatsu stuff (Power Rangers/Kamen Rider type stuff) with Mochizuki Yuuta (mega-Yuuta fan @khandri would know for sure). Definitely do not underestimate Ryuuji.

Surprise

Ik im 4 followers shy of 400 but I want to say thank you to everyone for supporting this blog! I’ve decided that I’m going to share the big surprise that I was going to share at 400 followers now

Drumroll please

For the first time ever thanks to Sarah (https://www.seramyucollector.com , https://twitter.com/sarahxmichael ) I am in the process of translating Gaiden Katieban! Sarah graciously sent me pictures of the script for the musical which is how I’m able to translate it. I started working on this last month and I still have a lot to do but look out for the finished translation coming soon!
