Why does it feel like they're already treating this new project as a success? Is it because they have a big name (Sui Ishida) involved in the project?

A girl getting around being in an all male school play by "cross-casting"? This looks like it's heading for some serious Shakespearean antics.

Also seems sort of interesting that they're going for that Princess Princess/reverse Takarazuka aesthetic.

I'd say that comments like these are uncalled for? Like, if it ain't for you, why bother?

Regardless, it does seem like a neat setup for an otome game, and Ishida's art is really attractive here. I hope this one sees an English-language release, as the mixture of otome game and rhythm game mechanics makes this feel like a hole that's meant for me.

I wasn't complaining. I'm just surprised Ishida could make soemthing like that. I've played my fair share of borth galge and otome

Part of me isn't surprised. There has been some tweets and ANN did an article of Ishida liking shoujo manga. One was called 'Honey', I think.
