The Hoso-Macho Look
Embodied by celebrities like actors Sota Fukushi (Gentaro Kisaragi in Kamen Rider Fourze, Ichigo Kurosaki in the film adaptation of Bleach!) and Hidetoshi Nishijima (Matsumoto in Takeshi Kitano's Dolls, Koichi Kijima in Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Loft), the lean yet muscular look, known as hoso-macho 細マッチョ (literally "slim and macho"), has been popular among Japanese men at least for the past decade or so.
While the fitness boom in Japan has made it easier for those who are motivated to train and shape their bodies, it obviously requires time and effort to gain and maintain a muscular look.
