More on A-"R"ex
Jan. 10th, 2008 02:59 pmI went back to A-"R"ex last night and I thought I would post my impressions from the second time around.
( Asako )
In the words of Katharina, "What kind of interpretation of ancient greece is this??"
I am glad though that they're going in a different direction than Akatsuki. I liked Akatsuki's costumes, but it's never good to do the same thing in too short of a period of time. Mihoko's hair is a little too big for my liking, but other than that, they both look very sharp. I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with Kiriyan. I'm rather sad though that Alex the Great in this version will probably be straight.
Also, what does it say about me that I'm trying to plan my Christmas break in America in a way that I can get back in time for this show? -_-;

relieving news (take two)
Aug. 13th, 2007 06:54 pmI accidentally hit a wrong button and deleted all of what I had written. So this is the somewhat shorter version: Kiriyan has been announced as being in Arex, tsukigumi's upcoming Theater Drama City show. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that means with rehearsal schedules and everything that she's going to be staying in tsuki for the time being. The same goes for Yuuhi, who will be having a Bow Hall at the same time. Yes, I know you all told me that Hankyu probably wouldn't move her, but Hankyu isn't always logical and I was worried. It's not that I didn't want Kiriyan to be top star, it's that I was really worried that if they made her the next top star of hana that she was going to go the way of Kashige. And in my very biased opinion, she deserves a lot more than that.
Hopefully what will happen is that Asa will (sadly) retire sometime in the next few years and Kiriyan will take over. I suppose there's still a chance of Yuuhi taking over for a while. Unfortunately now it's back to worrying about if Kiriyan will ever be promoted to top star due to illness. I try to tell myself that it's not worth worrying about since I'm not a doctor, I don't have her medical records, and therefore have no idea what's going on there. Besides, she hasn't missed a show since Bridge of Smiles, Bridge of Tears all the way back in 2003. I guess having Finch is a good luck charm. (I read that she bought him during the period that she was sick to cheer herself up).
In any case, with Kiriyan and Yuuhi out of the way, that leaves Yumiko and Un-chan as the candidates for Osa's replacement. Given that Yumiko just got transferred to yukigumi, Un-chan seems the more logical choice. I suppose that if she gets promoted then Sou Kazuho and Aine Harei will be bumped up? (Assuming they don't bring anyone new in to do the nibante and sanbante roles).
*lets deep breath out* Whew.
