Er what? Yoshinori Okada is quite skinny, yet Daisuke Nakahara is "chubby and bear-like". The manga has emphasized that point countless times. Will Okada gain weight for this role?

岡田じゃ貧相すぎ

この漫画はすばらしい
しかし岡田義徳はキャラに合ってないな、ダメポ

岡田を使うならたびてつ友の会を実写化する方がまだマシだろ

『たびてつ』ねぇ…。
Recently I happened to re-read 『たびてつ』 Volume 1 in the original.

Well I guess since that manga isn't exactly popular that the Production Committee felt they could just do whatever they want with that movie's cast.

Still as a tetchan Okada better at least grow a beard and eat a lot! I won't have it any other way, or else my hairy-fat butt might have to film his own version.

Currently, chubby and hairy are turn-offs amongst Japanese celebrity watchers. Laughing
