WOULD LOVE TO HEAR ABOUT IT!!!!
Ehehe giggles cutely twirls hair okay hold on I'll get out of tumblr before it crashes and I lose a few hundred words of progress /stumbles and trips into a random note app/
/comes back crawling out/ WOW this is long now that I've actually. put my ideas down
It's still a loose idea but I think it's silly and if you have thoughts on the actors or what the characters should because of your brainrot throw it my way !! I think it would be interesting.
Anywho, for the most part I'll be basing their names off of their stage actors, if not I'll use their jp voice actors and figure out how to deal with names later. If this ends up in search well im sorry. There personalities and relationships are out there too so. yeah
TEMPO - bpm
Based off of the actual theatrical group "bpm," TEMPO is a small group of members that of playwrights, actors, entertainers, etcetera etcetera. Three of which include:
Shintaro Asanuma - Izanami
Writer and director of the show, also handling the supporting role of the gas station attendant that ends up having cameos sometimes. Good friends with Masashi, Masami and his sister, Kana, also has a bunch of connections akin to a mafia boss. Kind of did the show pitch on a whim and dragged others into it haphazardly for being laid back of the sort, but takes the production very seriously and pushes through. Mainly focuses on being a playwrights but often takes on actor roles—they're also taking up a few voice acting roles too, both of which they're versatile enough to take on many roles that encompass a normal actor on amount and variety.
Masami Itou - Tohru Adachi
Got dragged into helping Shintaro with his production that managed to get greenlit but he kinda saw this coming—he ends up getting credited as "assistant director" a bit later. Subsequently dragged his sister he dotes on to help and star as one of the lead roles as the love interest also kind of not really. Almost as much of a clown as his character he was casted into writing most of the jokes and comedy that usually involves him, but he's well experienced in his field and takes pride in the acting art. Almost in the same boat as Shintaro, focusing on writing for the most part while doing a bit of supporting roles here and there with a bit of voice acting gigs on the side (they ended up voicing characters who are friends in one franchise).
Masashi Taniguchi - Ryotaro Dojima
Also dragged into Shintaro's newest production as the detective amidst their a murder mystery. A little bit more rowdy than his calm and collected role while Masami usually ends up being the voice of reason among the three of them—unless he gets into a silly argument with Shintaro while drinking together. He also smokes a lot less than his character as he's a family man with a lovely daughter who's also been casted into the show, still, as his daughter. He's an actor at heart while more theatrical based than the other two, while already having played a handful of lead roles consisting of various gruff and ruthless characters. He misses those as he's had to tone it down a bit for this character in particular.
Akemi Taniguchi - Nanako Dojima
Daughter of both her father and his role in the show. She doesn't aim to be a child actor, but she admires her father nonetheless and ended up taking up Asanuma oji-san's offer to play as Nanako, even being warned it was a pretty big role to play. She's a star in her school plays and still studies dutifully and lives her life as a kid. What's there for her to come after this show?
Then there's the other guys affiliated with different agencies yadda yadda I'm not that well versed with the entertainment industry I'm just a borderline butai fan!!! /waves arms around/ anyway here are the other guys i think—WHICH will be undercut I didn't think I would tackle majority of the cast already WHOOPS
Kana Itou - Marie
A kind and soft spoken girl, a talented artist and currently a rising star who's made her actor debut through her brother's friend's production as a brusque and anti social (tsundere) amnesiac of a girl. While depicted as a dainty young lady and even being a gentle person at heart, she does her role magnificently, but she contrasts even greater in proximity of her annoyance of a doting brother that it becomes comedic. The twin gags are funny and all but you can't forget the good old polar opposite siblings. It's a marketing strategy (nah man she hates him fr it's a sibling thing).
Speaking of twins I tried but I still haven't found a name for Teddie and Kagu yet but they're also twin actors. just throwing that out there. Also Shadow selves are deepfaked sometimes don't you love that good ol cgi.
Tohru Baba - Protagonist (Hayato Asakawa)
A prodigy from when he was a young, great with acting and has a hand with fight choreography, even being adept in kendo while he pursued acting as a child. He's the lead role for this show and takes great care of the cast whenever he can. Especially the supposed love interest (or how everyone's been calling it) as he feels certain looks shot straight at him from the assistant director when he's not looking.
Takehisa "Mae-chan" Maeyama - Yosuke Hanamura
A charismatic man focused on the stage, he wonders how he'd look like through broadcast camera quality besides the TV interviews with watermarks and logos plastered everywhere on the screen. For whatever reason complications happens with his contract in the middle of the show leaving it in a dip but apparently that's resolved peacefully. A humble fan of Kana while the two get along quite well, despite his own character being the girl-crazed type of adolescent (but his crush dies in the plot..?).
Minami Tsukui - Chie Satonaka
An athletic and perky woman with great flexibility who specialises in stage stunts. She's almost just like her character! Though she studied karate as a kid than kung fu, but she'll make do. Despite the almost sudden change, she gets along well with both of Yukiko's actors.
Risa Yoshiki - Yukiko Amagi
The first of Yukiko's actors before the contracted ended and didn't end up getting renewed (whoops).
Yumi Sugimoto - Yukiko Amagi
Yukiko's actor in the later seasons. Said to be a lot more attractive than the last actor, but she humbly rejects that claim.
Yoichiro Omi - Kanji Tatsumi
One of the youngest (and tallest) in the cast just like his character! He has a less aggressive personality, while he's rather friendly and upbeat almost reminding you of a dog. He enjoyed the bleaching process as it was required his hair would be like that for the show, while he even colored it when the show went on break from shooting.
Yuriya Suzuki - Rise Kujikawa
Scouted from being a magazine model, a skilled one at that. Her acting prowess was put to the test as she was casted into the role of a highschool idol. She shivers at the reality of idols in Japan alongside her anxiety for being casted into such a role without much experience as others, but the director says she'll be just fine. She retorts as she says she actually has quite a bit of stage fright as to why she didn't take up catwalk modeling (she's not tall enough?). She humbles herself greatly and is a bit flustered in Kana's presence as she herself is a fan of hers. But they get along together just swell, unlike the rivalry they have written for their characters.
Arisa Nakajima - Margaret
A friend of Shintaro who was dragged into their mess. She's a professional wrestler who ended up being scouted as a dainty lady in a car who can't serve the limo alcohol to her only guest because he's a minor? But she did have a few favors to owe a good friend, so she put on the frou frou getup and bleached her hair (she was told she could wear a wig but she said it could give her gigs a bit more flair). She tried coaching the choreography for fights once, it went a little too far and should have stopped the moment she complained about the breakaway props...
Yasuhiro Roppongi - Taro Namatame
A well known actor good at coordinating teams and a specialist at action on screen acting. As he's promoted to action director, an old friend calls him up for help in their newest production. Who's he to refuse someone like that? While he's playing a sad, devastated man walking in the rain, he's waving sticks and running around green rooms in silly dotted suits.
I THINK THATS ALL I GOT ???(IM SORRY TEDDIE IM SORRY YUKIKO IM SORRY NAOTO!!!! Naotos a band kid though if you want a (1) Thought) HERES SOME BONUSES
Kaede Aono - Labrys
Studied fencing and mentioned in an interview she exclusively auditioned for the movie duology because of the character's knight aesthetic and that she carries a large axe. Hopefully she'd do anything other than wave around a rapier in the other western period dramas she was in and when she got the OK, she was more than thrilled to swing around a masterfully made axe on set. In the sequel and meeting the new cast, her pun prowess proved vital while she suddenly made and shared many as liberally as one could expect.
Yuuki "Tomoyuu" Tomotsune - Sho Minazuki
Nimble man who may or may not ad-lib too much for his own good, but he's a bit dry with wordplay than one of his actual roles. While his take on "unhinged" certainly takes the cake, maybe take it down a bit? (he won't). Getting his wig styled and put on along with the makeup for the movie every time makes him a bit restless, not to say he hasn't experienced anything worse. He's stylish and swooned over as an actor. He loves his fans and tweets in micro blog entries with emojis here and there while posting on Instagram showing off a new piercing he's had to hide for most of the productions he's been in.
GOODNESS THIS WAS SO MUCH LONGER THAN I THIGUUT I HAVENT EVEN GOTTSN TO SILLY IDEAS AND IN DEPTH DYNAMICS DAMN for context on what i know, I follow masamisan and tomoyuu on twiger oh as well as bpm's account and kasuyasan and yojirosan . Most of the other actor info were from the visualive official blog and the others were stuff I pulled out the top of my head but then again you dont know which is which but anywho
literally made this au bc I sat down once and thought 'I've been here for two years I should make an actor au' and the immediate first thought was make iznmi the director it would be so funny. The second was make adschi and mari actual siblings and have them beat the shit out of each other.
I have other ideas a lot a lot maybe another night though hope i provided some insight 🐿

Plunderer, nuovo promo in attesa della seconda parte della serie animata
Il 12° episodio dell’anime andrà in onda la prossima settimana!
Tumblr media
Diffuso un nuovo trailer di “Plunderer”, la serie animata tratta dall’omonimo manga fantasy di Suu Minazuki (autore anche di Sora no Otoshimono), attualmente in simulcast per l’Italia sul canale youtube Yamato Animation di Yamato Video, ogni mercoledì alla 18:05. La seconda parte dell’anime comincerà con la puntata numero 12, che andrà in onda il 1 aprile.
Il video anticipa la nuova sigla di testa “Kokou no Hikari Lonely dark”, interpretata ancora una volta da Miku Itou. Il prossimo brano di chiusura, invece, sarà "Reason of Life" e a cantarlo troveremo Rina Honnizumi, Ari Ozawa e Shizuka Itou, che nell’anime doppiano Hina, Lyne e Nana.
youtube
Il trailer introduce tre nuovi personaggi:
Taketora Douan: Satoshi Hino (Momonga in Overlord)
Tumblr media
Tokikaze Sakai: Kaito Ishikawa (Tobio Kageyama in Haikyu!! L’asso del volley)
Tumblr media
Firenda: Kotono Mitsuishi (Misato Katsuragi in Neon Genesis Evangelion)
Tumblr media
L’adattamento, che sarà composto da 24 puntate in tutto, è diretto da Hiroyuki Kanbe (OreImo) presso lo studio GEEKTOYS (RErideD: Derrida, who leaps through time). La sceneggiatura è curata da Masashi Suzuki (Rail Wars!), mente i design dei personaggi sono ad opera di Yuka Takashina (Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha.), Yuuki Fukuchi (direttore d’animazione in Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata ♭) e Hiroki Fukuda (direttore d’animazione in Persona 5 the Animation).
La storia è ambientata ad Alcia, un mondo dominato dai cosiddetti “Conti”, dei numeri che ogni persona ha sul proprio corpo e che ne governano la vita. Le vicende iniziano con la madre di Hina che mentre viene risucchiata nell'Abisso, chiede alla figlia di trovare il leggendario Asso.

eight months in somebody actually asked me abt visualive instead of me immediately annoying ppl about it without former notice. I might actually write properly for once 😳😳😳
OK OK!!!!! In this essay I will.... I will.... Visualive Adachi.... Visu/BURSTS INTO TEARS/
OKAY OKAY for real I just care Visualive so much (as someone who can’t fully understand Japanese AHAHA)
First I’ll add some foundation about what Visualive really is, then I talk abt Adachi in the latter parts of it because this is technically the first time I’m properly talking about this hehe 🐿
T....table of contents???
Visualive
Visualive the Evolution
Masami Itou
Visualive Adachi
Visualive the Evolution Adachi
Terms and Legend
VL - Visualive
VLE - Visualive the Evolution
stage - shortened for “stageplay”
面白い - omoshiroi (it’s just that specific)
Yuuya - VL Hero name
Hayato - VLE Hero name
Baba - Hero
Masami - Adachi
Taniguchi - Dojima
Saotome - Daisuke
Mamiya - Izanami
I add honorifics but sometimes I forget the hyphen intentionally or unintentionally I’m sorry if it makes it hard to read lol
all links have automatic timestamps for easy viewing. i mean. i hope the timestamps work
VISUALIVE “Persona 4.” A stage adaptation of SMT: Persona 4 by Atlus. It adapts the first part of the story, from the hero’s arrival to after recovering Mitsuo Kubo from the TV world. It also ends on a cliff hanger, showing a teaser of Shadow Naoto being projected on the screen.
It takes up a speedy recapitulation of the hero’s spring life, before slowing down and showing in depth his school life in summer. A day before Morooka-sensei’s death, there is a little skit with Kou, Daisuke and Adachi. The hero walks into the conversation before the two other boys leaving, and Morooka-sensei walking in on the student and detective. The next day follow’s the teacher’s death and the Investigation Team (IT) begin investigating their new lead.
From the words “visual” and “alive,” the niche of this stage was meant to be the fusion of live acting and visual digital projections. All seen from the stageplay with the colorful cast of actors and CG animations being projected on the screen. This offers an opportunity for characters to summon their personas, perform cool visual effects, change the backdrop, or even confront their own Shadows.
Performed in Sunshine Theater from the 15th to the 20th of March 2012. The screenplay was written and directed by Shintaro Asanuma from the theatrical group “bpm.” The video production produced by Shutaro Oku, a film director and visual planner. He later takes over as director for VISUALIVE THE EVOLUTION, the sequel stage. The stage music was produced by Shunsuke Wada, with a special show exclusive vocal track sung by Shihoko Hirata.
On this note, I haven’t seen any sort of original soundtrack released for any of the stages and I’m SO SAD. The last song in Mitsuo’s boss fight was such a BANGER and literally EVERYTHING ELSE Marvelous, Wadasan please take my MONEY
Regarding the cast, there were some special accommodations for Teddie, Rise, and Nanako, all of which did not have live actors at the time. During the casting, actors for the three characters could not be found or simply left the directors unsatisfied they couldn’t cast anybody. An exception for Rise, who was able to have a live actor in the sequel stage. It has been stated that there weren’t any “pretty boy” actors that fit the “Teddie Criteria.” While there weren’t any child actors that were believed to portray Nanako well.
Teddie was only ever seen in his bear costume while Rise was busy talking through a call, all voiced by their video game cast. Nanako has never appeared on stage, only being scarcely mentioned in the script. Again, this is different in the sequel stage where her role was extremely important and was shown as a screen projection.
VISUALIVE “Persona 4” THE EVOLUTION. A sequel stage. Beginning abruptly in the middle of Shadow Naoto’s boss fight, the story continues from there until the “true end” of the game’s original story. *Certain characters are introduced while others have been reintroduced. And on a personal note, when it’s all comedic in the beginning, it’s all for what’s coming right after.
I don’t know if I’m salty or just find it really funny AHAHA I might go talk abt it some other day with more context ehehe
Performed in The Galaxy Theater from the 3rd to the 9th of October 2012, only a few months after the PSVITA Persona 4 Golden release, which is July 2012. The screenplay was now written by Jun Kumagi while directed by Shutaro Oku. And music production finally taken over by Shoji Meguro himself.
---
HAHAHA this is starting to look like a wiki page. moving on. I might start rambling rn
(warning LONG !!!! aaa,,)
My thoughts on the stage adaptations. For the first Visualive (VL) I believe it’s pretty close to canon! I enjoy the characterization and how much love and care was present when handling the entire production.
Actors were busy playing the game itself, wherein a PS2 was present in the practice room. Along with magazines and game guides explaining the game’s story and the characters itself. Actors performing together and even improv acting together to get a grasp of their characters. All of them knowing well of Persona 4 as a well loved game, delicately handling their characters and hopefully performing them right while making the audience happy.
The staff taking care of each other while the director and video producer, Asanuma-san and Oku-san, working together well to make their vision into a reality.
The same thing happened with VL the Evolution (VLE) and literally every other good stage. Except... I feel the script kinda got out of hand with too much liberty where it feels a bit more disconnected from canon. But! It makes up for it in its content, whether comedic or (INCREDIBLY) dramatic! It’s great as its own story at that point. So in this case, I like to take the first VL and get to connect it canon, while I don’t know what the hell happened in VLE to the point I’ll just enjoy it as its own content.
These opinions deserve its own essay, post whatever bc I have SO much to say abt this. ANYWAY. VL ADACHI
---
Tohru Adachi is portrayed by Masami Itou (伊藤マサミ), a screenplay writer, director and an stage actor himself. He does have a single character voice role along with a fellow troupe member in the same franchise, but mostly works as the former three. He is part of Asanuma-san’s entertainment group “bpm.” On a similar note, Masashi Taniguchi, Dojima’s actor, was also part of their group from 2011 to 2016, which may explain their good synergy as the boss and the bumbling fool dynamic. I mean, somebody’s gotta get hit in the head every few skits.
With Masami-san being an important part of the cast, he doesn’t appear as often as Taniguchi-san in backstage content like the VL bonus disk or the official blog. Mentioned in his own personal blog, he had been busy with his roles as assistant director (I am assuming also for VL).
Also fun to note, because his role is mainly comic relief, he has been using his liberty to change up the material almost everyday making each performance exciting. This also leaves some other actors jealous of his freedom in his role, such as Saotome-san, Daisuke’s actor.
---
VL Adachi really has a... how do I say this? an adorable speech pattern (THE SAME SPEECH PATTERN THAT DROVE ME MAD TRYING TO DECIPHER I THOUGHT YOU WERE A CITY BOY OSSU OSSU MY ASS /shakes you violently/). Overall, he really fits the loose lipped bumbling fool, and his accent really makes him seem more casual and invested. What I’m saying is... VL Adachi either actually has genuine empathy or he actually has more energy to fake it (compared to some other edgelord. i mean you saw my p4ga analysis. I’m sick of him lol ahaha).
One of my favorite ways to explain this (OTHER THAN CHAIR CAR ADVENTURE MY BELOVED WE’LL GET TO THAT LATER) is the rice field scene with him and Dojima. It’s overanalyzation time 🎉
youtube
(43:04)
While investigating, Adachi whines about being tired while Dojima smacks him in the head. In this case, it’s established that Adachi doesn’t want to be there, yes? It’s the country, it’s hot and it smells like green.
"Ah... Dojima-san..! Why don't we take a break? (...) There really is nothing out here... Is the criminal still even here at all? (...) I wonder if I've passed being a rookie yet. Haha, but this city doesn't even have convenient transportation. I can't go to leisure lands (recreation, amusement parks, arcades, ect.) and head home at all."
Adachi then tries to tell Dojima a story. “when I got to this city after being newly assigned, I met an interesting guy (...) Yeah, I remember that the cherry blossoms haven't bloomed yet. So, I was driving my car and got near the station and--” Dojima gets a phone call.
Adachi politely puts his hands down waiting for his boss to finish so he can finish the story. Again and again, Adachi attempts to talk to Dojima about a story he’s so persistent trying to tell someone about. It was so 面白い that he would find someone to talk to about it. Even being polite and patient enough to wait for a chance to speak. He even gets fed up with it and blows up in front of his boss, clearly irritated he’s not given a chance to talk.
Sure, it could be Adachi feeling fed up like a normal person where someone agreed he to listen to him, before being constantly ignored. Or Adachi trying to be a more annoying whiny brat, depending on where you look at it.
If the story wasn’t too “interesting” to Adachi, he would’ve just brushed it off and stopped talking to Dojima entirely, or start up new small talk, or even complain some more. But no, he had a story he wanted to voice out so bad that he got irritated that the one person in the vicinity couldn’t listen to him.
Only after Dojima told him to continue their investigation elsewhere did Adachi finally stop and focus on something else. Maybe that story was for another day, or maybe it was never meant to be told.
What if it was just original (game) Adachi? He’d find a way to squirrel out of the investigation as usual, or push Dojima to “investigate” elsewhere. “Hey boss, don’t you think it’s hot? Why don’t we go elsewhere? We’ve seen this place too many times to count and I doubt anything new’ll turn up. How about we take a break at Junes, y’know? Where it’s cool? C’mon boss,” something like that.
og Adachi is just really annoying and silly to me. Some grown man thinking he can freeload because he never gets anything out of putting in more energy and effort? I don’t care how tall he is, I will smack him in the head.
Yeah VL Adachi whines, too, but at least it doesn’t look like he’s going to escape and waste his time somewhere else. He just sucks it up stops trying to leave the situation.
Or maybe I’m getting this all wrong and VL is exactly the same and my rage just gets dampened because of Masamisan’s execution of character hmm...
SO. What was his story about anyway? The one he really wanted to share to Dojima?
I mean... it’s obvious enough
youtube
First day in town? Spring? Actually mentioned driving a car when literally out of every single persona 4 media at the time was there not a SINGLE mention of Adachi having a car OTHER THAN the same stageplay it’s being mentioned in?
A story, from somewhere around uhh four? five months ago? was something that he remembered so dearly and was willing to share despite it obviously embarrassing him even if he puts the blame on a certain somebody in the same story?
Or maybe it’s because he really had nothing to talk about ever since he realized all his stories from the city weren’t actually that funny or interesting in the first place.
BUT then that would mean out of all the things he could talk about—more whining, complaining, complimenting, small talk—he insisted about talking about this story in particular.
Okay, look. I’m just. Just. As someone who talks too much, of course I have things I actually want people to hear out of all the bullshit that comes out of my mouth. And if the thing I actually want people to listen to doesn’t even get heard, I’d go mad.
Sure, Adachi’d be fine when his complaints or intentionally unfunny jokes get brushed off. But a story of a guy that he thought was so funny, interesting, 面白い gets ignored, he really blew up, even just for a split second, maybe.
And ALL the things that happened in that story—on his first day in Inaba! His car got dented, he had to deal with a weirdo dumbass employee that knew zero personal space, yelled in his ear, who didn’t know how to do their job, got his station reputation messed up on the first day, got his ass grabbed, got (unintentionally?) mocked for his lame stories, and got his car dented for the SECOND time. Probably MORE
And he STILL wanted to talk about it /punches through concrete wall/
yes I’m overthinking about this of course i am
This little tidbit of VL Adachi kinda makes me go insane sometimes—his entire characterization in VL in particular. It was really refreshing to see and how they included both of his characters in it, his facade and how irritated he is of a lot of things underneath. And how flexible his character is immediately working with other characters when there’s sudden improv to balance the situation. Like him and Dojima, Morooka, the attendant, or even Yuuya (hero) himself.
I’ll take Taniguchi-san’s messing around in the VL bonus backstage disc in place of Masami-san being so busy he couldn’t appear in it as often as other characters.
For stagetime that lasted for fifteen minutes or less, my appreciation for VL Adachi, even if he was just comic relief, really rocketed. I say VL, bc Adachi the edgelord he’s supposed to be in literally every other media is something I analyze separately.
I haven’t even gotten to VLE oh my GODDDDD
Like I said, I don’t really regard VLE close to canon but as something to be appreciated for what it is by itself. But the way Adachi was characterized there, in or out of character, still struck me.
---
Yes, there was his strange fan-agreed-canon which is,,, now canon obsession with cabbages (not that that’s a bad thing lmao). There was also him being a lot more jumpy and intimate in a clowny way, patting people on the shoulder or even downright hugging them just to mess around. Even FORGETTING who the same goddam loser who grabbed his ass almost a year ago is. But like, can’t blame him they literally changed their actor (and screenplay writer) AHAHAHA
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ha... no more comedy, only dorky sword fights now
(speaking of sword fights I think it’s a fun thought how Mamiya-san [Izanami, also one of the youngest in the cast] admitted it was his first time doing sword fight choreography and even thanked Masami-san and other staff members for guiding him)
One thing unintentionally in character was Adachi accidentally nabbing the sushi overdosed in wasabi. Masami-san didn’t actually account for a joke sushi and didn’t immediately eat it—until Taniguchi-san (who also made Dojima go off his shits compared to VL) jokingly yelled at him and even riled up the audience for him to eat it. He even went off stage to get water just for him to eat the goddam sushi.
And Masami-san did! (kinda choked, but he’s fine).
Continuing from the same scene, while being overly giddy about sushi dinner (and I mean overly--he was singing about it while hopping to the Dojima residence), he tried to remind the two, Dojima and Hayato (hero), that Nanako was sleeping. Probably where she was sick if the scene was translated from the game.
youtube
(30:07)
And... the dramatic parts of VLE
Adachi was the one who reported to the IT that Dojima was chasing Namatame in the rain. While Naoto was discussing Namatame’s journal entries, Adachi, as giddy as he is, took it from Naoto’s hands and reveled in the discovery of evidence so childishly(?). He even ran to Dojima when he began regaining consciousness and immediately called the nurses to help him wheel Dojima to the ER.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then, The Hospital Scene™️, right after Nanako flatlines.
youtube
(1:02:02)
Adachi, who recently walked into the scene, immediately worries about Dojima and IT who were ALL crying. He looks down, devastated—before yelling how Dojima’s heading to Namatame’s room.
He yells in terror and the same grief at his injured boss, all while running past and even jumping over children, who fell to the ground sobbing, to get to him. He continues yelling in a pained fashion while immediately reprimanding Dojima to stop. He gets carried by the collar before being tossed to the ground at Hayato’s feet, all while being pat by the same boy.
Dojima makes his speech about how unfair it is for the ‘killer’ to be alive when his daughter isn’t. When he finally falls to his knees, Adachi rises from the ground, humbly saying he’ll do his best to take care of Dojima (or something like that I’m in tears I literally can’t do VLE’s hospital scene i h8 this). He finally starts crying along with everyone else, being pushed away again but still tries again, trying to usher his boss away from the door.
With the help of the guard in front of the door, they all disappear off stage
please... I know this scene doesn’t need that much translation because of how important this scene is in the entire story. and I know my narratives aren’t enough so just,,,, just watch it please it’s so much more than this. everyone’s acting was just spectacular
youtube
(1:08:47)
So, after the IT (YOSUKE. JUST YOSUKE. good job Mae-chan) stop themselves from k wording Namatame, it was ADACHI who reported Nanako’s miracle recovery. He ran to the same corridor where they all cried in, even panting and falling to the ground in relief trying to report the good news. Then he pats Hayato on the shoulder and says he’s going to Dojima.
With this... /slaps roof of half of VLE/ ALL of this....adachi.... adachisan.... he Cares™️..... holy shit.....
now. comparing to the game. do you even remember what og Adachi did? did he.. even do anything?????
youtube
(56:39)
NO!!! he just stood there!!!! being a bumbling fool but.... inappropriately!!! man. he didn’t act concerned enough.
adachi: /walks into a bunch of kids crying outside a hospital room/ “lmao why tf are y’all crying? did uhhh what’s her face uhhh nanako. did she d word or something? rip, I guess lol” LIKE????? CAN YOU IMPLY FASTER
and then he’s like “wgat hmm Where’s Dojima-san Heading Because That’s Not The Way To His Room 🤔” and only when he’s asked he actually mentions he’s heading to Namatame’s room and still needs to get choked by a first year for the room number like..... zero consideration
and his boss??? where his daughter he loves so much just??? di*s???? and he’s so devastated he’s doing what he can that very moment while he’s so numbed of thinking of the consequences???? And adachi goes “uhh boss that’s illegal” LIKE. BITCH. /punches through a concrete wall but harder/
---
And??? His confrontation scene??? Like, I know they mashed it up w his tv confession scene to save stagetime for other scenes BUT IT WAS SO MMBMBMBMMGN /gestures in a good way/
youtube
(1:15:56)
UM?? guy behind everything??? in a vulnerable area where he could easily get physically assaulted bc hes not in the tv world w his persona?? Trash talks women like he absolute misogynist he is??? getting yelled at by a bunch of kids and YELLING BACK IN THE SAME AGITATED MANNER even TAUNTING THEM then and there to GET HIS ASS?????
og Adachi was such a pussy he got caught and just scurried off into the TV world where he ended up having powers like...ok....scared of getting beat down by a bunch of highschoolers unless you have powers...ok....
he only taunted them to get him when he was in the tv world too.....he rlly couldn’t say shit in the real world huh... lol
(yeah yeah this shows how VLE Adachi knew abt his TV world powers which would make you think if he ever went into the tv world and came back out alive. Or he’s really just a badass who doesnt give a shit abt anyone’s opinions and CAN beat anyone’s ass. i have a separate thing abt this but bc i like to laught at vle rather than overthink its own lore i might. not. idk lol)
and ??? VLE Adachi can??? He can swordfight??? he doesn’t even NEED a gun—he even reflects bullets w his blade (but apparently he can still get slapped by a flying fan more often than any other attack). His fight choreo was just...so poggers. He’s like short villains done good—like??? he’s short compared to everyone else!!! but he makes up for it for stuffing all the energy inside him while is bursts out making him him the over energetic gremlin he is!!! go VL adachi!!!!
(am I low key making fun of Madono-san in the TUUSH stageplay I’ve seen four minutes of? maybe)
OK!!! Yes I was gushing abt Masami-san again back to Adachi.
It’s portrayed that while not being afraid to admit his crimes, he also goes out of his way to be a bastard and have the gall to get a bunch of kids to fight him, one on eight. He can use a katana, probably a narrative dark reflection of the hero, Hayato which I thought was nice—and he can fight!!! It also shows his persona, yes, but...it doesn’t make it clear if he’s overwhelmed by his Shadow like in the game, where his eyes were yellow and he was emitting a dark aura.
But it gets interesting how he sees he’s getting overwhelmed and starting to lose his edge towards a bunch of kids. He falls to the ground even banging the floor like a whiny brat while literally the IT tries to tell him to turn himself in.
