Natsume (大浦みずきさん) left us on 14th.
It's lung cancer.


The final carol...
The final dance...
The final encore...
The final curtain call...
But,
Natsume~
Forever~

What's your final soul?
What's your final goal?
Dance and Carol.
Curtain call and Encore.

Natsume!
Fifty-three years have gone,
Thirty-five years let stage on.
Bad dreams dwelled around for long,
Good dreams please come from now on.

In the sky,
Natsume~
You are dancin' round and round.
Please keep beaming on!

Osa went to watch Asa's Last Day!!!!

I am excited to post this. 
The "news" are collected from many resources, mainly from Japanese and Chinese fans' blogs, and digested into this post.

Five minutes before the curtain-up, two seats were still empty in the middle of the second row in the theatre. This phenomenon was telling every fan that some VIPs would attend at.
Then the audience around murmured, "That's Osa!" "Osa is coming!"...

So here Osa came in black (chanelcoco style)!!! Followed by her "first wife"--Ohtori Rei(Sorry, I am prone to omit the latter lady...)
"Where are the seats?" a fan heared Osa's voice.

Osa watched earnestly and laughed happily at the points as the other fans did.

At the beginning of the post-revue show, Asa came out and caught a glimpse of Osa when she was dancing on the "silver bridge" (银桥).  (<3333333)

In the middle of the show, when Asa found Osa wasn't applauding with the other audience, she said, "Together, Sumire-sung~" (^_^)

On the curtain calls, Asa winked at Osa twice, even while the curtain was falling down, she kept on winking again!!

At last, Osa left the theatre with sweet smiles~~~ (I wonder she might go to the tiring-room(乐屋)~~~)

Osasa!! Forever!!!

看潮起潮落,云卷云舒,人更事迭……
那块厚重的帷帐,升降了多少次?
银桥前的追灯,又为您灼烧了多少回?
谢谢您的热爱与执着,
有人问我,是为了励志才看宝冢的?
我想到的第一人,就是你。
坚持到最后。
瞳子,我很想问您一句:
这半壁的青春和热血,是以何样的姿态度过及挥洒的?
未来的起点,又是支撑在哪块巨石基上?
您在长夜中的徘徊,在光芒下的淡定,
我渴望体会,希望能追上您那从不停止的脚步,
与您一起成长!

Here is a news from 2ch.
Two senka--Todoroki Yuu and Ban Akira
are going to give a lecutre together in Kobe College on 7th, Oct.
The topic is about the public culture.

I guess the lecture hall be very crowded that day <333

My rhapsody~
Aran Kei
[info]choubao

It's my first time to enjoy the chanson----Je t'aime, Moi non plus.

Before listening, I wondered how it released the French romatic atmosphere.

Everyone told me it would be a sexy song that I'd ever heard of. 

And you can't imagine it was created nearly forty years ago.

The man sang, while the woman whispered.

What  a simple lyric and melody~

Repeat and repeat.

But for me, a traditional Asian-culture based one, that's enough to make me blush and shy.

Since it was sung by Haruno Sumire a few months ago, I started to project the spotlight on it.

After listening, I was totally shocked and moved~~~

Well done, osa!


Wao and Hana appeared as passerbys!

[info]choubao

A few days ago, one man shooted a short video when the Japanese policemen caught some fixers.
At the 24th second, Wao came into the screen followed by Hana.
It looked like they were shopping, and Wao took the heavy bags for Hana.

My friend drew these pictures.
They are so funny~
Every picture describes the status of each troup.
What do you found in them?








前Top的悲哀,世风日下
D-Asa
[info]choubao

[info]tamo_shima 首先看到的,然后直接去了绘麻绪(包子)的博客里继续看。
出场人物(偶复习了一下,对于老前辈,不熟):
包子:元雪组男Top,俺同道某口腔大夫之小女,绝对的袖珍男役,73期,和女王、傻月和匠(又是个可怜的Top啊~)同期。在团身高号称168m,退团后缩水到166.5m,“短命的Top”,此后俺家小光“篡位”。
森奈:元花组娘Top,宝冢41期生武蔵野裕美之长女,安寿相手,三拍子,当时与白城、麻乃号称三大天后。74期,和小央同期。

前几日的晚上,包子和森奈一起路过宝冢大剧场。
迎面走来月组的某两只娘役小盆友。
(大家应该都知道宝冢的礼仪吧!)
可是,意料之外的是,这两只居然对撞而过!!!
身为两个前Top,包子和森奈很受伤,互相嘀咕:
当她们作为下级生时,她们都能记住7到10年以前的Top的脸。
包子继续引申道:当她现在去宝冢后台更衣室时,多数下级生都不会给她打招呼或行礼。
于是,两人开始总结了:这就是而今的宝冢。
包子发问了:“宝冢传统的美德都上哪儿去了?”

choubao的评论:
1、包子的快人快语,早在退团声明中就已经领教过了。这孩子,有时候就是挤咕着宝冢来着。
2、听说,包子是个感性、情绪化和直接的人。恩,这样在官方博客里敢说敢当,当面质问宝冢的美德和传统。让choubao很佩服。
3、包子的短暂上位和退团,似乎太匆匆了。而这些小字辈的娘役,可能也就研几出头,还没来得及过分瞻仰这位老前辈吧。记不住那张脸,不知道算不算情有可原。
4、包子退团后,变化似乎还不至于那么大吧。虽然在团的时候也很玉面,但退团后继续延续了玉面娘娘的风格。还不至于不认识。
5、下级生在夜晚路过宝冢大剧场,也许是稽古结束后,拖着疲惫的身体和一天点头哈腰的心态出来,一定很愉悦,心想“终于可以放松下来了”。这时候却半路杀出了两只前Top。下级生八成都当路人忽略了,或者一阵惊愕后,也忽略了。
以上纯属choubao的碎碎念。忽略吧……

PS. 森奈和包子的关系貌似很融洽。两人一起演剧,出游,聚餐。连森奈的裤管也是包子蹲下帮着挽……友情的两个啊~

[info]choubao

  
  I just saw the news on 2ch and asked my friend 大空慎 to translate in into Chinese.
    Now I would like to post it in my poor English.
    Wao Yoka will hold a lecture named as "Wao's world, myself right now" on Nov 15th, after she has got two qualification certificate-- "加压训练" and "ピラティス" (both of them are related with fitness training). She would deliver some points about herself right now and beauty.  Meanwhile she would release her new songs and hold a meeting for handshaking.
    But the lecture is not free, for 4725 Yan for an hour. (Is it expensive or not? I have no idea.)
    Location: 西武百货商店池袋总店イルムス馆8层池袋地方自治团体□大学[申请开始]8/20(树)
    Time: 11/15(日) 13:00 to 14:00


Dance like a surgeon?
Zunko director
[info]choubao

A few days ago, I just watched a Takarazuka revue--“漫长春天/长生果” performed by 紫吹淳(Rika). I don't know its English name, maybe it's a lasting spring.
It was my first time to know Rika's performance. To my surprise, her performance was so awesome~ I thought I was liking her more.
There was a funny dance leaded by Wataru. That was the nurses and surgeons dance.
That's cool and handsome. But from my point of view, it was terrible:( If I actually dance in the operation room, I would be crazy^^^^^^^^^
My chief would get crazy too. And all the bacterias would dance here and there.......................Orz 
But this idea is worthy of being learned, maybe in the next new year show, all the staff would dance together.<33333333333


Komu dances better than Wataru?
Komu
[info]choubao
I like dancing, so I pay much attetion to the show after the Takarazuka revue.
Most Chinese fans often prefer Komu and Wataru as a golden combi, because they performed together several revues.
Recently I reviewed a 2007' dancing show named as "Dancin' Crazy"of these two OGs.
In an episode, they danced together, so I leaned to compare them together.
For Wataru, her movements are absolutely taller and powerful. The turns, jumps and walks are direct and clear.
As for Komu, I prefer her stretches and releases. The timesets are always so perfect and all the movements are so graceful. Her lifts(控腿)are the best of all the OGs which I have ever seen.
I wish she would dance more on the stage~
