Toyoko's Mr Darcy in a Bow/Nippon Seinenkan show, while Chie has what looks like a self-titled concert with an Umeda/Nippon Seinenkan run. Alike to Komu's Albatross, Wataru's Across! and Saeko's Nettaiyawa. And she's just had a music video, big box and everything

It's ironic, I have been hoping for a Takarazuka version of Pride and Prejudice for a long time, but now I am too worried to rejoice.

The combination of calendars and these shows makes me break my brain. ... and Hoshigumi doesn't have a clear and established sanbante, does it?

[bwinter]

Nope :> They have Team Special in my icon + Makaze. None of whom is ready for anything like nibante-dom, never mind top star.

Just had a thought - really wouldn't mind Micchan Top Star of Star :D

[yumenotatsu]

Hmmm, yes, Micchan would be interesting...

Oh dear. Hankyuu is toying with us. :)

[bwinter]

It's what they do best ;)

And I love the fact they're playing to people's strengths in the new shows. Classico, because Sora's chock-full of model-looks people. Ocean's 11, because Hoshigumi is all about teamwork and capers. Pride and Prejudice, because Toyoko is gentlemanliness personified, and REON to finally give Chie a chance to dance and sing to her heart's content without making sure the rest of the troupe keeps up. Don Carlos... oh, I've been waiting for a Yukigumi opera-based show :)

Now, something neat for Kiriyan, please. With a best friend for Morie to play, and Masaki and Mirio playing twins.

... I don't like any of this talk. Chie's going to be a five-year top star, okay, she and Nene have still got plenty of time oh my god oh my god I don't like this.

The silver lining is that if REON does portend a changing of the guard, at least I'll be in town for the sayonara kouen.

Chie's going to be a five-year top star

Yes yes yes... And I don't want to hear anyone saying anything else. It's just a concert, nothing else. Nothing else, do you hear me Hankyu? NOTHING ELSE. XD

...same as usual, that she'll retire with her next show. Seeing as this has been the rumour with her every single show since Casablanca, I am starting to think she wants to break records and be a fifty-year-old top star.
