matataku_hoshiI just feel the need to brag that a lot of my guesses were right. (Granted I didn't give very specific guesses for some of them, but hey, don't burst my bubble ^^;)
I'm really excited for this cast. Tomomi and Haya fops! (Although does anyone remember who the character of フォークス is? Is he in the League?)
ETA:sumire_no_hana just pointed out the obvious: Toyoko will be playing Sir Andrew Ffoulkes! In the books he's a fairly prominent character, a member of the League, and one of Percy's best friends. His character was cut from the musical because in English his name sounds too much like a certain four letter word. But since you don't have that problem in Japanese, it looks like he's back!
Also interestingly, Koto Marie will be playing the character of Suzanne. In the books, Suzanne is a noble (I think) saved from the guillotine by Percy and company who goes on to marry Andrew. I wonder if this plot line will be explored at all? This makes me wonder if I'm right about my theory that the script/songs are being expanded to give Toyoko and Shii more to do.
