This Takarazuka Musical seems very interesting! Very Happy

All the ladies seem very talented and seem to play the roles very well, and are very much in character. The costumes are exactly as we see in the anime and manga (and thankfully they gave Kenshin a red kimono instead of a pink one like the anime did Anime smile).

While it's a bit weird for them to include a musical only character, I'm sure it will still work out. I don't think it's a bad thing.

However, I would've loved to have seen Misao, Yahiko, Hiko, Shishio, Yumi, Sojiro, Enishi, and many others in this as well. Anime smile + sweatdrop

I've seen bits of another Takarazuka Musical they did for The Rose of Versailles and some other musicals like the French musical Romeo et Juliette, so I'm familiar with this style of musicals.

I truly hope the show goes well for all involved with the show and wish the best of luck for the cast and crew! GANBATTE!!!!! Anime smile

I hope that they keep it on as a regular performance, like Rose of Versailles. Looks really awesome, they are all great actresses and their hair/makeup/costumes all rock!

It looks absolutely fantastic, the actors seem incredibly talented and the costumes are spot-on. I'm so sad that I can't see it live.
