( My answers underneath the cut )

Watched the 2008 Daigekijou "Me and My Girl" raku last night.  Such a good show, and even better with bonus Ai-chan Jackie (the Ai-chan!Jackie digest on the official DVD just isn't the same).  I sorely miss Mihoko and Taki-san these days ( Read more... )

...is anyone really surprised?

I have mixed feelings on this one.  I feel like Asako overstayed her time and I hated the fact that the company never gave her a new partner after Mihoko, but there are also performances of hers that I really love (Ernest and Love and Me and My Girl, namely).  Also, I got into fandom in January of 2007.  From the top ( Read more... )

Guess which extremely bouncy senka member showed up in the cast listing for hanagumi's Me and My Girl????

Okay, okay, so she's already played the role of Parchester twice, and you could make the argument that some other should have a turn.  But she was...amazing beyond words in the 2008 Daigekijou version.  MiiMai is an incredible show to begin with ( Read more... )

I crashed very, very early last night.  Sometime between then and waking up the initial photography for Russian Blue and hanagumi's Me and My Girl went up.

In regards to Russian Blue, it looks like it could be a really cute show, and they both look good.  But...I'll admit that it's really strange to think of a new yukigumi Daigekijou show without ( Read more... )

M-san tells me that Asako and Mihoko went to see Kiriyan in K Collection.  I get the impression that the three of them bonded when they all went on the MiiMai tour to Britain <3 ( Read more... )

Lucia, you are one VERY lucky fangirl.

2009 seems to be the year of the revival, or at least that's what it feels like.  I suppose I should be sick of MiiMai by now, but the truth is I've grown very fond of it.  And I could definitely see Yuu and Ayane as Bill and Sally.

Does this mean that there might be another chance for Yuuhi!Jackie?  Or will ( Read more... )

HELLO MASAKI LEGS.

(More thoughts to come after I get through the whole DVD.  Which could be a while!  Because I may need to watch that again)

The DVD preview for Kiriyan's Me and My Girl is up.  It looks, well, shiny, to say the least.  Oh, and the preview for yukigumi is up too.

Have I mentioned recently that the fact that there is a DVD release of this show has saved me from an incredible amount of angst?

The bad news: I'm not only jet lagged, but definitely sick. Lemme tell you, the only thing worse than doing the trek from Saitama---->Tokyo---->Narita---->Detroit---->Hartford---->Home is doing it when you're sick.

But! There is one thing that cheered my spirits considerably in the last 24 hours. I haven't seen this posted anywhere else yet so I ( Read more... )
