Mihou Aya is retiring?!! This is depressing and sad. She is my favourite upperclass musumeyaku T____T
Is it just me or are there really not many upperclassmen left in the company?

*edits* Just remembered. The other other thing I was going to say, about 95ths -- that Manaki Reika, hey. Looks like Pimpernel wasn't just a fluke? She got a role name in Gypsy Baron when even *Tamaki* doesn't have one.

And it really looks like a girl's name to me. I've decided they're Amazon gypsies, because of all the musumeyaku with named roles, compared to otokoyaku. All the men will be the army lads that they'll have to kidnap and have their way with. :3

XDDDD!!!!!!!!

See, now you've gone and gotten my hopes up for Amazon gypsies ;P In any case I hope the show is fun :)

*edits* I should have said -- admittedly Chapi's role does sound like a girl's name; we'll see. But "all the musumeyaku with named roles, compared to otokoyaku" -- actually I counted and they're exactly equal. o_O;; Unusual for Takarazuka, I guess, which is why it seems like "all these musumeyaku".

The sales for Tomomin seem pretty good for the start of a small show lead by an underclassman, I think? About in line with other shows like that...

But I'm so sad about Mihou Aya and Amano Hotaru. :( Well, kind of Tsukigumi is, IMHO, the worst place in Takarazuka to be a musumeyaku, but it looks like this show is good for musumeyaku so...it'll be a good place for musumeyaku to show off and then go on to bigger and better things. Aside from being upperclassmen musumeyaku, they're incredibly talented uppperclassmen musumeyaku, and with all they've been able to do, if they want work after Zuka, they'll get it. If they feel they're done performing and want to rest, then I'm glad for them. And since they are douki leaving together, I'm glad they have each other's support.

And with all the musumeyaku roles, I am incredibly excited about The Gypsy Baron. :D

Thanks for the announcement. It's good to have a place to discuss it. *hug*
