As
tsuki_in_sora pointed out,
AiPre photos are up on the Pia website :D ♥ And I've been looking for an excuse to post about the information I've gathered so far...
* Apparently this is a "buddy" show, despite Sou being all money-obsessed and Matobun opposing her. People keep talking about the bonds of friendship between Matobun & Sou / their characters.
* Consequently, people have very little to say about Ran-chan >:[
* But someone did say "I was glad that Mitsuru, Meo, Maa-kun and Daimon weren't all treated like one character." ^^;;;
* And as I suspected, there is something very juicy about Taiga Rin's role.
* Hacchi-san is a Nazi.
* The revue is being compared to A bientot as far as the "sayonara mode", cry-your-eyes-out kinds of scenes. I think I'd be among those bawling ;_________;
* There is a number with Hacchi-san, Saori-san, Marin-san and Tomoyo-san in drag >:D
* THERE IS ALSO AN "EIGHT CHARMANTES"-TYPE NUMBER, without them being labeled as such. The otokoyaku showing off their legs are: Saezuki Runa, Kira Masato, Hidaka Daichi, Maki Izumi, Saebana Riona, Minami Maito, Yuunami Kei and Ranma Yuu.
I like this. I like this veeeeeeery much >:D ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Especially because 96TH POWER (it actually took longer than I expected for them to do something with Ranma-kun), MINAMI-KUN POWER (I am going to write to her this time, I swear it!!!), and Kira Masato legs are a must-see *____________*
* Lastly,
the parade order:
♬ Amachaki etoile ♬
Seto Kazuya - Nozomi Fuuto - Ootori Mayu
Amamiya Nao - Asaka Manato - Hanazuki Yuma
Kayou Kirari - Hanagata Hikaru - Hanano Juria
Mano Sugata - Sakura Ichika
...and then Miwacchi, Sou, Ran-chan, Matobun, of course.
Actually the original poster said it was Mitsuru x Ichika, but then someone else made a comment about them elevating Meo over Mitsuru for taidan. So I'm not sure. Either way I find it interesting... And if one of them had to go, I'd rather Mitsuru get knocked down a notch and stay than for her to leave ;_____; ♥
But at least Meo got some taidan "service" :) And Haru-chan too. I mean, look at all the musumeyaku in that parade!! It makes my heart happy ♥ (Plus Seto Kazuya!!! GO AKIRA☆☆☆)
