i don't know if there's a thread for this kind of thing, but who exactly is the witness in that advert? It's not Mia is it? Because that musses it all up.

So, can I imagine that this is as bad as it looks?

Like the Bleach musical?

I'm not sure if it says so on the website. I don't read any kind of foreign language. Unfortunately.


Luckily, there is an English Takarazuka Wikipedia here. It says that the performances are:

Bow Hall, 2/5 - 2/15; Nippon Seinenkan Hall, 2/24 - 3/2



To Emperor Ing: You can imagine, but I think you will be very mistaken. Takarazuka Revue is a much higher caliber musical than those sorts of anime musicals.

Youtube:
- Bleach Musical
- Takarazuka's Elisabeth (1996 Star)
For some reason, Elisabeth is very popular on Youtube? I picked it because then if you like it you can see other songs from that show and other performances.

Another video of it went up on Youtube, with the Sky Stage logo again. (yay!) It's ten minutes long and has various clips from the performance, I don't speak a word of Japanese so I have no idea what it's about, but here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zYapmRsNZE.

The fact that I find the musical numbers exciting and riveting is probably an indication that I have questionable taste.

B-but I was a theatre nerd LONG before I got into Phoenix Wright. My inner Thespian is singing with joy.

The more I see of this opera, the worse it gets.

At least I am laughing at how bad it is.

Oh god, I was DYING of laughter whenever the Phoenix or Edgeworth started dancing with the spotlight and all the background dancers.

This is so ridiculous and I want to see it so bad. xD

Well, we fans seem to be split up in three different groups. There's the theatre nerds who think this opera is So Good It's Awesome, there's the people who want to see it because they think it's So Bad It's Good, and then there's the people who think it's So Bad It's Horrible.

I mean, I was in all three camps on three separate occasions. When I first heard that they were doing an opera, I was excited. When I learned of the plot and their Mary Sue character, I switched to being disappointed. The more I thought about it, I decided that if anything, it was worth watching for the lulz. After seeing the YouTube clips, I became excited again because I really like the musical numbers, and I think the acting is extremely good. But as I said before, that's just my taste; this brand of theatre is obviously not for everyone.

It also helps that I'm EXTREMELY ATTRACTED to the actress that plays Edgeworth.

Actually, it looks quite nice !
I was a bit scaried when I first learn about this opera, but after seeing this video, my fears have been washed away ^^
The songs seem quite good (even though I just can't understand everything, only a few very simple words), and the dancing part seems to be the same too. A bit weird to watch at first, but I wouldn't call that bad personally. I don't think I'd ever buy the DVD (unless they put some English subtitles on it... anyone heard of a previous Tarakuza musical released on DVD which carried english subtitles ?), but maybe the CD of the songs. Maybe ^^

However, there IS something I DID find weird... it's just before they start talking to the audience, during the very last song. Indeed, it was really weird to see Edgeworth singing 'Phoeeeeeeeeniiix Wriiiiiiiiiight !!' :edgy:
That's probably the last thing he would ever do in his 'life' ! xDD

Edit : Oh, and now I want to see crouton-Edgeworth singing this song xD

Man, I just watched that one video and all of a sudden I am SUPER CRAZY EXCITED for this. It looks like a really neat production, and quite frankly, musical numbers fit astonishingly well into the big ball of silly that the Gyakuten Saiban series has always been. CROSS-EXAMINING A PARROT, PEOPLE. The acting is good, the singing's great, and I love the way they pitch the songs carefully within the lower range of the actresses, so that it's right in that place where alto and tenor overlap. Damn, I wish I could be in something like this...

Also, I'm one of the few folks for whom the all-female cast is a definite plus. Pseudo-femslash yay! \o/ Also pretty women in suits; I agree with Kartoon Kween, Girlworth is smexy as hell, especially when dancing.

I'm still wondering why they decided to keep the English names. Because of the Western appeal of it? I mean I don't recall the troupe doing a title in a Japanese setting.

You know they fucking did JFK? YES I THINK THAT ONE.

I have been lurking on this site and others. It makes me really happy to see so much approval of the musical. Especially of Nanaho Hikaru. ^_^ I know she would be pleased to know so many are, um, heh "attracted" to her. She was happy and nervous enough to know that the American fan base was also keeping tabs on the show. Nanaho, and everyone, studied very hard for the roles.

Oh I guess if you couldn't tell I am actually a Takarazuka fan, but I'm also a budding Phoenix Wright fan. I'm not much of a gamer, but the it is rather fun. My friend may never get her DS back...

Another thing I am actually a T.I.P member and its nice to see that people would be willing to wait for us to translate it. Mind you it will be quite a while before it is aired on Sky Stage (the Takarazuka channel). If it comes out on DVD the television version will not be available until a year later. If it doesn't then possibly at the end of this year. So some patience please :) My friend and I will probably be the ones to personally subtitle it. It is our favorite troupe, Cosmos Troupe, and I have a vested interested in Nanaho ;)

Please continue supporting the musical!

It will more than likely come out, most second-ranking otokoyaku have their shows released on DVD. And thankfully it won't take *that* long, heh. And, despite Capcom's involvement with Takarazuka, I hightly doubt it will be marketed outside of Japan. Play-Asia only carries the soundtracks and piano tracks of Grand Theater shows. They carry no DVDs and probably will not in the foreseeable future.

Yet, its not hard to obtain Takarazuka DVDS. Either have a friend in Japan buy it for you or use a shopping service/ wait for it to be sold on Yahoo Japan auctions.

Oh darn now you got me doing it too :jazzedgy: :jazzedgy:
