Takizawa Ryo is a 28-year-old Japanese actor who has appeared both onscreen and onstage. His onstage career began in 2008 when he played Young Simba in the Shiki Theatre Company production of The Lion King. In 2024, Ryo rose to new heights after he joined the cast of the popular series Kamen Rider Gavv as Nierubu Stomack.

On February 9, Ryo announced that he would be marrying a woman he had been dating for some time. He did not mention his wife by name, describing her as a “private” person who is a great source of support and strength to him.
