"I dreamt a long dream over 19 years", Touko said.
March 9th was Aran Kei's last day with the Takarazuka Grand Theater.
A report and photos on the Hoshigumi senshuuraku have been uploaded on the Sanspo site.
Touko wore a Hikonyan ひこにゃん on her hair to complete the drag attire during the revue - Hikonyan is a popular feline character of her hometown Shiga Prefecture representing the region's pride Hikone Castle - what a wonderful way to celebrate her retirement ! (And I love her sense of humor and endless passion to give the audience a hearty laugh even on her last stage.)
Komu came to present flowers from the 77th class to Touko (see the expression on her face!).
Asuka , Shii-chan , Shimiko , and Shunkichi were among those who retired today.
The Revue Company's official site also reports on Touko's press meeting after the sayonara show.
Thanks Touko and her Hoshigumi mates. Take a good rest (except for Asuka & her company who are starting her Music Salon concert from this Wednesday), and charge up your energy for the Tokyo run!
