2017.05.01 Shinsekai Romance Orchestra Review!

My wonderful friend managed to get me tickets to Ueda’s stage for my Birthday DAY! I was super excited! Especially seen as it marked ONE year since their hiatus and ONE year since I’d last seen them live. So it was three super special things in one! Although I hear some people don’t find their birthdays special... that’s a shame... anyway! Onto the stage!

CAST

Ueda Tatsuya Shimizu Kurumi Saori Misato Aoyama Nagai Mijika Nemoto Shuko Miyazaki Tomu Nishida Naomi

NON-SPOILER REVIEW

Overall: This was entertaining. It was definitely comical like they promised but the story was a lot more simple and very different to what I originally was expecting. I enjoyed myself and there was a lot of meta jokes; they joke about members leaving and they sang random Johnny’s songs and one character even says KAT-TUN lyrics are normal sentences quite a few times. Ueda did amazing and I’m very proud of him carrying this entire play for two hours without a break pretty much. Rating: 6/10

SPOILER REVIEW

Unfortunately this is going to be pretty short. I wish I’d watched this twice so I could have a better idea of what happened and such and also it’s been like two weeks since I last saw it so my brain is a little rust. Sorry but I’ll try my best!

So the MAIN STORY is:

Ueda is a composer and the main lead of his now 2 (was 4) person band, but he’s currently in a writing slump and can’t figure out their next hit single. He wants to write something rocky but the only time he’s inspired to write and the only time he can figure out the next part of his song is when he sleeps with women (and they only give him soppy love song ideas) and so he’s made a system where he has multiple girlfriends at once so he can see a different one every day, sleep with them and still be inspired while having one day a week off/rest from them. 

BUT it starts with him breaking up with the one girl who doesn’t inspire him when they’re together but at first she refuses and proposes to him. So the entire story is him getting in trouble with these multiple girlfriends while realising he‘s in the love the one he tried to break up with in the beginning and trying to accept that she is all he needs in her life.

Crazy right?!

First can I quickly talk about the actual theatre because I found it totally weird! So there’s three floors to this theatre, yes three! So you’d imagine it’s this huge theatre right? WRONG! First floor has only 15 rows and then floors 2 and 3 only have 2-3 rows each. What the actual?!?! Just put ALL 20 rows on ONE floor! It’s SUCH a weird layout. AND the platforms stretch out much more than where the seats finish so everyone has to lean forward to see the front of the stage if they’re on second or third floor. It’s so inconvenient and silly and stupid. See here.

ACTING

Ueda Tatsuya: I’m so proud of this boy! For some reason, even though I’ve seen him act quite a few times (but never on stage), I was worried if he’d be able to do stage. I know he technically works on a (song) script when he does concerts but my brain was like ‘can he even do stage?!’ because naturally it’s different to TV and concerts right?! But I am so proud! He is literally on stage the entire 2 hours bar like 10 minutes and he didn’t obvious slip up and his performance was both funny but sexy but cool but his angry moments too were great! I really proved he can act! I am so so impressed at how well he delivers comedy too! ^_^ He was so cute during curtain call too. At the first one he hopped over the pool but because it was wet, he slipped forward and you heard ALL the girl (aka the entire audience) go ‘ahhh!’ but he regained his balance straight away. And then at the second curtain call he was walking off while waving but he was so focused on the audience he didn’t realise he was about to walk himself off the stage xD and we all freaked again but he just smiled and laughed at us so mischievously xD

Shimizu Kurumi: She played his one true love of his life. She was annoying and had a silly logic BUT it worked for the stage. An example of this will be the very first scene where he tries to break up with her and she doesn’t react and he’s like ‘you're not upset? You’re not going to cry?’ and she’s like ‘why would I cry? We’re not breaking up. We’re going to marry each other’ and he’s like ‘what you on about crazy bitch?’ and she’s like ‘I figured it out *pulls out paper* your only option is to marry me in the end’. So in real life; that is bad shit crazy(!) but for the story, it worked. I also really loved her outfits! And she did other crazy things like go into the pool fully clothed and always greeted him from his roof’s window after they broke up because she gave her key back to him. She was sweet but in real life would be a crazy bitch xD

Saori: If I remember correctly she was the ex-manager who he used to date. She’s still very much in love with him and still flirts with him and she’s still his bit on the side. It was her story to learn to let go of him and move on, and kinda gain some self respect for herself and her body.

Misato Aoyama: She plays the idol who Ueda’s been in love with since she was a young child star. But she’s nothing like her idol pictures and she’s very disgusting too (lots of fart sounds for her) but she always very chill and energetic. She didn’t care about the fact he was cheating on her so long as he was with her somewhat.

Nagai Mijika and Nemoto Shuko: They play Ueda’s Chinese maids and they aren’t attracted to him but they do allow him to have his way with them. Even he’s disgusted at the fact he becomes attracted to them, especially because “I don’t like foreigner girls” as he claims a few times. They’re definitely one of the main comedy reliefs and are always very straight and direct with their verbal abuse towards Ueda which is hilarious. Also Nagai’s character is able to see paranormal and supernatural beings whenever she cuts herself (which is easily cured and mended through her sisters special salt which she rubs in after) ,so the entire last 30minutes are literally spent her (and the rest of the girls) cutting themselves so they can talk to Ueda who is currently in a coma in the hospital but his spirit has come to them as a final penance. I really enjoyed the twins although couldn’t help but think its a shame they hired Japanese people to play Chinese maids but I guess that’s my White Western First World ideologies kicking in. They did great and I laughed at them a lot.

Miyazaki Tomu: The only other guy in this stage and he is so ridiculous and funny! He’s the only other member left in the band and he’s brought it upon himself to play ALL the band instruments and pose at the members who left. So in one Music video it’s Ueda singing while we transition to different shots of him on different instruments and with different coloured hair so you can see there’s a difference xD we were ALL laughing. Also at the end, unfortunately he actually dies and tries to take Ueda with him and he spent his last scene IN and AROUND the audience just spouting abuse at the girls and then he pretends to die and lies on the floor for ages and such. Very funny xD

Nishida Naomi: She’s probably the most famous actress/actor out of them all - or at least for me she is. She was great! She played a charmingly funny but somewhat crazy one. She spends a lot of time crying and with such a lack of confidence. She’s like ‘if I was a good manager then you wouldn’t always be consulting your ex-manager right?!?!’ and Ueda is like ‘no I just sleep with her... she’s not my manager, you are! You’re a great manager!’ and she’s like ‘really?! *all happy for a second* BUT! You sleep with her and not me because she’s prettier!!! *calms a little* I’M SORRY! PLEASE DON’T HATE ME! I DON’T MEAN TO BE NEGATIVE! DO YOU HATE ME?!?!?’ She’s actually hilarious xD her and Ueda were the funniest I think.

Now onto some scenes and comments and such:

So the people in the band are Ueda and Miyazaki Tomu. It was originally 4 people but very quickly into the show Ueda comments ‘well they left...*looks to the audience* you know who left!’ and everyone died laughing because he was clearly commenting on KAT-TUN losing members.

I thought it was interesting how they did the sex scenes; they would do like a duet dance around the stage while they held music notes showing that he was being inspired in his music as he slept with them. It was creative and much more visually pleasing than just seeing him ‘have sex’ with the girls on stage.

The two Chinese characters at one point started randomly singing ‘100% Yuuki’ which got everyone giggling.

Also towards the end it got pretty ridiculous and the girl would cut herself in order to see ghosts and before she did it (every time) everyone was like ‘why are you doing this to yourself?! It’s dangerous!’ and every time her only reply was ‘Giri giri de itsumo ikite itai kara’ which got laughs every time.

There’s a 5 - 10 minute sequence where all the girls want to go and watch LaLaLand at the cinema with him; at first he’s reluctant but by the end of it he ends up even inviting his band member to go and see LaLa Land with him because he’s seen it that many times and fallen in love with the movie and it’s music (xD), and the music from the show plays over during this scene too. So safe to say this stage WON’T get a DVD because of possible copyright infringement from this movie xD

The finally few minutes and final scene starts with the title (on the wall) ‘One Year Later’ and that really hit me in the feels because I went exactly one year after KAT-TUN went on Hiatus and the whole scene was about him and his lover finally getting back together and reuniting after a year of being apart. And to have that scene and for JE to NOT announce KAT-TUN’s come back one year later was really a blow to the feels; especially because JE fucking WROTE this stage. WHY would you do something like a ONE YEAR LATER scene and NOT announce KAT-TUN’s come back one year later? That’s fucking brutal and cruel JE...

---

All in all, I was laughing at all the meta jokes throughout this and this was entertaining, and I enjoyed myself a lot and the story is crazy and I did laugh pretty much the entire time, but underneath all that... I couldn’t help but be really hurt and sad too whenever some things were brought up, especially the ones about members leaving and the whole coincidental ‘one year later’ especially because I went on May 1st which is exactly one year since they went on hiatus and such. I definitely felt a stab in my heart. Also the making self harm a joke kinda hurt me at first but I decided to suck it up and just not take that too seriously.

It was definitely comical like they promised but the story was a lot more simple and very different to what I originally was expecting. When I saw the visual I thought we were going to be getting an actually musical orchestra university thing with Ueda as the star of the orchestra and he was like the Prince but it ended up being a lot more low budget, a lot more simple, realistic and completely different. But it was good.

Hope you enjoy that!
