However, saying that Ahi isn't capable of anything even vaguely resembling an akuyaku is... just no. Not buying that.
It might be more that her singing range wasn't suited to Lucheni? Though that's never stopped them before... Maybe it really does just boil down to the fact that they auditioned her for both roles and liked her better playing Rudolph? I still think this might be an experiment to see what happens if they cast by what actually suits the cast, rather than rank. But then again, maybe it will be a perfect disaster and everyone will seem horribly out of place.
