Yuta Mochizuki (望月 祐多 Mochizuki Yūta) is a Japanese actor who played Yamato Tribe Prince Geki (TyrannoRanger) in Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger. He previously played J1 of the Neo-Jetman in Chojin Sentai Jetman. He returned to voice TyrannoRanger in the short crossover movie, Super Sentai World (along with Black Condor of Jetman in place of his original actor) and fully reprised the role as in Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger vs. Go-Busters: Dinosaur Great Battle! Farewell, Eternal Friends.
He also played Koji Segawa/Kamen Rider J of Kamen Rider J. This makes him, as of 2012, the second actor to have played a Sentai Ranger and protagonist Lead Kamen Rider, after Hiroshi Miyauchi, and the only actor to have played both a Sentai Red and a protagonist lead Kamen Rider (Keiichi Wada (Ryo/RyuRanger) came close by playing a minor character who briefly used the titular rider powers of Kamen Rider Ryuki but was not the main protagonist).
Mochizuki is also a familiar face for any fan of Sailor Moon due to his portrayal of the second Tuxedo Mask of the Sailor Moon Musical.
Mochizuki is also the first Super Sentai actor to attend Power Morphicon in America, where he met the actor for Geki's counterpart Austin St. John. Footage of one of his panels was used as bonus material for the American subtitled release of Zyuranger on DVD.
Mochizuki, alongside Takumi Kizu (Lucky/ShishiRed) of Uchu Sentai Kyuranger, went to the Japanese red carpet primere of Power Rangers (2017). [1]
