Well, my brain exploded.

What the heck. I thought the Bleach musical was odd enough, but this just takes the cake.

Now I must go to Japan. Air Gear is one of my favorite series (despite technically not being all that great) and I think I would love to see this.

If they can do an "Evil Dead" musical, then anything is possible.

I wondering how sad it is for me to NOT be all that surprised by this announcemen. Then again, I'm a firm believer in the idea that 'anything's possible.'

Now, when was this, and how do I miss out on it?! Seriously, though, one of my favorite B-movies ever.

Personally I'd rather see a Hokuto no Ken or a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure musical.

Iyaaa, I'm excited! I love the actors (Kamakari Kenta and KENN play the roles they seiyuu, Ikki and Kazu, and I loved those two in the Tenipuri musicals), and I love anime musicals~

I've heard that the actors kept falling down though, and that they cut out all the female characters... A shock! You can't have an Oh! Great manga without girls, right?

I saw it a few days ago. Though I'd never read AirGear (I did read the first volume afterwards though), it was an amusing show. I wish that they'd included the female characters, though. It would have made it more enjoyable... I feel this way that the show was just made for fangirl-service.
