Hello! I saw M.A. is going to be played again in February! 🤩 Apparently there's going to be a new cast. What do you think about it? Do you think Furukawa won't play in it anymore? Are you goin to see it anyways?

【Related post: TOHO’s MA 2018 Introduction】

Dear Anon,

I am glad you asked, thank you! Just this morning I had a passionate conversation about this announcement with a friend!

Yes indeed, the cast will be quite different! The two MAs remain the same, but most notably, Fersen and Duke of Orleans are changed. Tashiro Mario reprises his role as Fersen, but the double cast will be fulfilled by Kai Shouma (甲斐翔真), a fresh new adult of merely 22 years old with an even fresher filmography. The antagonist will be played by Uehara Rio (上原理生) and Onoda Ryunosuke (小野田龍之介), both more experienced actors with a solid stage history.

My opinion about the 2021 cast

The M.A.s

I am glad that Sonim (Margrid) and Sasamoto (Marie Antoinette) get to stay, because they were the axis of the musical. They are what was required to deliver the important nuance to the show. Without their level of deep character studies, the show would have become a simple ‘monarchy vs republic’ story, instead of a story of people. The greatest thing about the A-cast version of 2018 MA is that it never tries to ‘educate’ its audience; it simply wanted to tell a good story of people.

I have seen versions with such unsympathetic Antoinettes that just made me go: “yeah the revolutionaries should just get on with it”. Reversely, I have also seen such whimpering Antoinettes that they make me doubt she is the woman who wrote: “all the hatred of France has accumulated on me, may it also disappear along with me.” (Nakano 2012)

Margrid is also a somewhat tricky role; one misstep and this woman with her own principles, emotions and agenda will get reduced to ‘that mislead girl corrupted by external evil’. Without Sonim, it would easily have been a woman who was lead astray because she needed a worthy leader, but was then tragically deceived!!! Reversely, if the nuance had not been done so well by her, it would have been difficult to acknowledge the redemption attempt for such a viscous person in the end.

Of course Hanafusa and Kon also reprise their roles. I have only seen their performance once, but I have to say that neither left much of an impression on me the same way Sasamoto and Sonim did even during my first viewing. Perhaps Hanafusa and Kon will dramatically revamp their performances, perhaps they will not. Who knows. I have much hope for Kon especially; second time, second chance.

Kai Shouma - Fersen

I have not seen anything of Kai Shouma except glimpses of his Yagami Light, so it is very hard for me to judge him. From what I have seen, his voice is pretttty good. Not amazing, but pretty good nevertheless. His acting for Light was pretty solid though! I have not read any interviews from him, so I can’t tell how good Kai is at deep diving for characters. Fersen’s script is rather difficult to work with in my opinion, and so far except for Furukawa’s portrayal, I have not seen any rendition of Axel von Fersen that is more than just a tragic lover.

Kai does have star power! But what type of star power he has will be what he’ll ultimately be tested for. The thing I noticed about Tashiro’s Fersen is that his tremendous star power ironically became his biggest impediment. He constantly threatened to steal all the spotlights, and even when literally in the background his dramatic body language just screamed “WITNESS MY BISHIE SPARKLES!” Co-acting with Hanafusa demanding style, he was not so much playing ‘with’ her as much as playing ‘against’ her.

Fersen’s role in MA is supposed to be in the background, and the ultimate test is whether he can stay in the background without disappearing, as well as catching enough attention without outshining the two leads. I’m not sure whether it was so much Furukawa who managed that task perfectly, or he who taught everyone that that is the only way this role can work. The star power I saw from Kai in Death Note was befitting of this memorable lead, and I hope this power is something this young man can command at free will.

The Duke d’Orleans

Uehara Rio

Uehara is one of the most powerful singers I have ever had the pleasure of seeing, and his style is energetic, bombastic and explosive. He would surely be a worthy lead antagonist in terms of star power. 

The previous d’Orleans Yoshihara Mitsuo is phenomenal, and I would be lying if I said I have no concerns whether anybody can ever fill his shoes. As explained in the post linked above, Yoshileans has managed to portray a villain who is the protagonist of his own story. D’Orleans’ script itself however, is quite limiting in the sense that it leaves very little wriggle room outside the ‘greedy throne usurper’ narrative. Yoshihara however, SOMEHOW managed to pull of what he did, anyway.

My impression of Uehara Rio is that he tends to take the most obvious trait of any character, and tune that up to 11. He has a natural flair that just sucks you into his memorable performance, but his flair does often threaten to swallow the character itself whole. In a spectacle-based production like ‘1789 - les amants de la bastille’ it is like icing on a cake. But in a nuance based production like MA, I fear he might become the icing on a broccoli quiche and end up being ‘the villain because the script says so’.

BUT! I have not seen anything of his d’Orleans yet, so I will give him a fair chance!

Onoda Ryunosuke

I have seen NOTHING of Onoda yet, so I can’t judge whatsoever. But I know he is a veteran musical actor with a huge stage history. I am curious to see what he’ll make of this role too, but here too I admit again that I do have concerns about the giant shoes Yoshihara left behind.

[Why] I think Furukawa won’t reprise the role as Fersen

Dear Anon, you said “Do you think Furukawa won't play in it anymore?”, do you perhaps mean ‘why’ I think so? If you just meant it exactly as you typed, well, it’s confirmed that he won’t reprise the role, so... yeah ^_^;;

If you are a normal human being and therefore made a typo, then my answer is:

I THINK Furukawa is just too busy, and perhaps the schedule would clash with ‘Elisabeth 2020′s reopening? Perhaps? Potentially, maybe? Hypothetically? I don’t know.

Otherwise, it COULD be that Furukawa saw Yoshihara leave, and went: NAH. These two did build up an amazing friendship and chemistry, both having spent HOURS together discussing their roles. (This is just my own wild fantasy though, please don’t take me too seriously).

Am I going to the musical?

Right now I don’t think I am going to this musical for several personal reasons; but who knows how things will turn out in the end. I do have to say, I already have the DVD with my dream cast, and I feel like MA-wise, I have no thirsts that need quenching anymore.

Japan Kamikouchi

Located in Matsumoto, Nagano Prefecture, Kamikochi is part of the Chubu Sanzan National Park, which the government has designated as a special place with scenic beauty, a special natural monument, and a protected natural area, making it one of the most. famous mountain tourist destination in Japan.

History of Kamikochi Nature / Topography Beautiful places and interesting places The name "Kamikochi" is said to be derived from "Kamigakiuchi" or "Kamikawauchi", which means "place of waste" in Japanese, and "Kamigakiuchi" or "Kamikawauchi", which means "shrine" in Japanese. Morning light on Mt. Myojin is seen from Myojin, the place where Kamikochi began History of Kamikochi (faith and development)

During the Genrok period (1688-1704), there were already 12 Kikori huts in Tashiro, Myojin, Tokusawa, Yokoo, and elsewhere, and there were records of clan officials assigned to Myojin (Tokusato) who studied the timber.

The Kamikochi Hot Spring was discovered and a Yuya (now the Kamikochi Hot Spring Hotel) was opened during the Bunsei period (1818-1830).

Until the end of the Edo period (1603-1868), this area was a place of mountain worship (worship of nature, where mountains were believed to have spiritual power and were considered sacred) and a place of pilgrimage, which, unlike modern mountaineering, is what is done in the mountains around Kamikochi, usually Mt.

Reliefs commemorating Lord Weston's achievements History of Kamikochi: The Birth of the Japanese Alps

Mr. William Gowland, a metal engineer from England invited by the Meiji government to support industrial modernization, climbed Mt. The name "Japanese Alps" was later introduced in a book by British missionary Walter Weston, and the name "Japanese Alps" became known throughout the world. With the opening of the old Kama Tunnel, Kamikochi Farm, Yorokan (now a 5,000-square-meter hotel), Kamikochi Hot Spring Resort (now Kamikochi Hot Spring) and other accommodation facilities began to operate, and the first Kappa Bridge was built. It was also when Ryunosuke Akutagawa first visited Kamikochi. (Apparently, he is a hot spring lover and has visited many hot springs all over Japan.)

The old Kama tunnel, which still stands today (behind the square frame on the left) History of Kamikochi: Taisho and Showa Period: Become a tourist attraction in the mountains

In 1916, the entire Kamikochi area was declared a protected forest, ending its role as a wood supply area for more than three centuries. Route from Shimazu to Tokumoto Pass to Myojin on Mt. Yarigatake was common to this day, but in 1927 the road to Nakanoy was opened, in 1933 National Route 158 was opened, and in 1934 the Kamikochi area was designated a national park.

The pond was called Taisho Pond and became part of the Kamikochi landscape. In 1934, the area was designated the Chubu-Sanzan National Park, and in 1952 it was designated a special place of scenic beauty and a special natural monument.

Kamikochi has become a mountain resort with nature

In 1909, crop harvesting was banned in Kamikochi and larch plantations were planted in the mountains damaged by deforestation from the Edo period.

In 1975, Kamikochi Park Route Road was closed to passenger cars to reduce congestion and preserve the natural environment, and the ban, which only applied during the high season in July and August, was gradually strengthened to include tourist buses. during the year to move to the current total ban and car-free resort.

In 1997, with the opening of the Awa Tunnel, traffic on Route 158 increased and the number of tourists to Kamikochi increased, and the mountain railway tunnel from Sawatari to Kamikochi was planned as a new transportation route to Kamikochi.
