News and announcements

[winter]

Toyoko's Mr Darcy in a Bow/Nippon Seinenkan show, while Chie has what looks like a self-titled concert with an Umeda/Nippon Seinenkan run. Alike to Komu's Albatross, Wataru's Across! and Saeko's Nettaiyawa. And she's just had a music video, big box and everything.

If not for the fact Chie's November on the 2012 big calendar, I'd say she'd be out by August, leaving Toyoko to take over. But now... oh, Hankyu, making us speculate so much ~.~

The combination of calendars and these shows makes me break my brain. ... and Hoshigumi doesn't have a clear and established sanbante, does it?

[winter]

Nope :> They have Team Special in my icon + Makaze. None of whom is ready for anything like nibante-dom, never mind top star.

Just had a thought - really wouldn't mind Micchan Top Star of Star :D

Hmmm, yes, Micchan would be interesting...

Oh dear. Hankyuu is toying with us. :)

[winter]

It's what they do best ;)

And I love the fact they're playing to people's strengths in the new shows. Classico, because Sora's chock-full of model-looks people. Ocean's 11, because Hoshigumi is all about teamwork and capers. Pride and Prejudice, because Toyoko is gentlemanliness personified, and REON to finally give Chie a chance to dance and sing to her heart's content without making sure the rest of the troupe keeps up. Don Carlos... oh, I've been waiting for a Yukigumi opera-based show :)

Now, something neat for Kiriyan, please. With a best friend for Morie to play, and Masaki and Mirio playing twins.

I wonder what they're going to do with Edward VIII (pls no Nazis, Hankyuu. No, really)
Twins? They really, really should do this)))

[winter]

*nods* I'm tentatively considering a J12 trip in May-ish, but really not fussed about missing Edward VIII. I would guess they do the brothers as major characters, and someone's getting stuck as Churchill...

My ideal show for current!Tsukigumi would involve Masaki and Mirio as evil twins plotting world domination, while Kiriyan's the easy-go-lucky tango dancer who's perfectly happy to have Marimo as his dance partner and Morie as his life partner, but gets dragged into the plot by Chapi, the heir to the industrial empire that the twins want to take over, and the climax of the show's at the opera...

... they could invite Natori Rei as Churchill? Though he was not that much older than Edward, IIRC...

Oh, I'd watch that! (also, I am eternally amused by Masao's wish to play a bad woman seducing Mirio, or however she put it. She certainly should do it some time)

[winter]

...now you've got me thinking about a BeruBara version ~....~ Kiriyan!Oscar, Marimo!Rosalie, Morie!Andre, but concentrating on the Affair of the Necklace where the focus is also on Masao!Jeanne and Mirio!Nicholas...
