Twin actors Manpei Takagi and Shinpei Takagi announced on their respective blogs on Sunday that they are leaving the entertainment industry.
Manpei played Retsu Fukami (Geki Blue) in Jūken Sentai Gekiranger in 2007 and Shinpei played Takeshi Momoshiro in The Prince of Tennis musicals.
Together they played twins Kaoru and Hikaru in the live-action Ouran High School Host Club drama series and film.
They have been considering this decision since last year, and they have decided to end their acting careers after age 30 in order to pursue new horizons.
