Translation done aurally, and it was hell.

But the show was so amusing, at least it made me forget a lot of the pain it was to catch what they were saying to those terrible mics.

The poster is as crazy as the play gets. The first act looks like a lighthearted Wuthering Heights, the second, maybe because I was subbing one too close to the other, reminded me of The Red and the Black, but again, in a comedy way.

Lots of senka and senka to be in it, but we also get Asako as the nibante, Yumiko, and very smol Eritan in very smol roles like... horses?

Trigger warning for guns, deaths, graphic description of a wound.

Timed to the Sky Stage release, but it should fit a VHS rip with minor adjustments. Let me know if you need help.

Someday I’ll write an essay about how Mireille Duroc is the ultimate musumeyaku role, an essay that you can fight me over and you will lose, because I am right. Marie Antoinette is queen, Christine is quality, Elisabeth is cool, Juliet is cute, Carmen is chaotic neutral and Sharon is a close second, BUT Mireille takes the cake. Just my opinion.

For anyone in the fandom, here is what I have available to stream at the moment. Most of these things are already ready to go, what isn’t can be prepared for stream in a night or two, so I only need some advanced notice. I’m available to stream with notice, most Saturday and Sunday evenings, U.S. Eastern Standard Time.

I stream via Cytube. Certain things that are hard to rip may have to be streamed via old fashioned Livestream.

I haven't purchased anything in a while ‘cause adult life comes first, but hope to remedy that soon. There’s plenty of other fans on tumblr with access to more recent shows, and the shows of other troupes.

Cocktail comment #4

The latin costumes always throw me off. Those gigantic sleeves. The big trouser legs. These women are mostly rather tiny and the fabric just drowns them... Not to mention the colours. The music is fun, though -- Oh, Asa in mint green. Osa got slightly more lucky in orange and gold. MIDORI. DRUNK MIDORI. She looks like a pineapple. The prettiest pineapple you ever saw. Such a diva. ... Ooooh. Charlie in black. I love this part. Maachan! So little. But Maachan and Charlie were such a perfect match. And to sum up: FEATHERS AND FABRIC ALL OVER THE PLACE!! Charlie's costume is honestly the only pleasing one on that stage and I'm not sure it would have been good on anyone else. Charlie is just that awesome.

Maikaze Rira

Why I like them: MY QUEEN Why I don’t: I love Queen Rira, there is nothing to dislike about her.Favorite show/scene: Mireille in Silver Wolf, all of it, and Inada hime in Susano-o. Seriously, she brought me to tears. The Rose Collector scene from Dream Kingdom. I also loved her in Tarantella, and of course the final pas de deux in Datenshi, its impossible not to cry. I really loved her alongside Wataru in the Berlin show, too. Favorite outfit: Inada-hime's gowns! And all of her white fluffy parade outfits.OTPNon-romantic OTP: KOMU/RIRA GOLDEN COMBI FOREVER.

Unpopular opinion: Come back and dance for us forever, Rira. Is that unpopular? I'm just being selfish...

A wish for them: Please be happy in all of your endeavors. I hope you will come back to the stage more often, but you seem happy and well. I would really really reaaaaallly like if you worked with Komu some more again!

An oh-god-please-don’t-ever-happen for them: Marry and disappear forever T_T

5 words to best describe them: ALL HAIL QUEEN RIRA

My nickname for them: Maachan, Queen Rira
