Part of an interview with Mr. Ryutaro Imai, who plays Baku, and Ms. Maho Horiguchi, who plays Nemu
>Kamen Rider is often filmed in the morning. Do you have any tips for waking up early?
Imai: I always tell myself, "If I'm not at the set, the shooting can't start". Now I'm stronger in the mornings and can wake up normally.
Horiguchi: I've never liked mornings. I really can't wake up early. But since we started filming this, I've gotten a lot better. I set my alarm about 15 times every morning.
>Fifteen times?
Horiguchi: I usually wake up the first time but end up going back to sleep. I really get up around the third alarm! (laughs)
>Have you watched Kamen Rider series before?
Horiguchi: I have a younger brother, so I've seen it here and there. I especially like Kamen Rider Wizard and Kamen Rider Ex-Aid. I'm really happy that the script for Zeztz was written by Yuya Takahashi, who also wrote for Ex-Aid.
Imai: I watched Kamen Rider W, and I especially liked Philip.
>The costumes in this show are excellent. Can you tell us what you especially like?
Imai: I like the "form-fitting" shirts a lot.
>Actually, Baku is a good-looking young man (talking about himself), quite ordinary, but in his dreams, his body looks a bit more muscular.
Imai: That's right. I like that the costume was designed deliberately to look form-fitting. For example, the printed patterns, ring, and ear covers are packed with elements that guys like. When he becomes an agent, his hair "spikes up," so he has to style it every time, which is something cute in itself.
>I've heard that Nemu, played by Ms. Horiguchi, is created to take on various roles in people's dreams.
Horiguchi: My makeup and costumes are created to fit the dream world of each person. I think you'll see many different sides of Nemu. And importantly, today's costume is my favorite. I especially like the bag; I take care of it like a partner.
