Wrap your music around my heart

Ugh, I'm so torn between should my next order be A Kiss to the Flames (ordered from TCA shop) or Phantom, year 2004 Cosmos Troupe version (ordered from Sound of Music). Both of them would have Wao and Hana as Tops.
I know I've been saying that KttF would be next one, but more I listen and watch Phantom clips, the more I want to see and own it.
But also KttF have it's plus sides (more than only Hana in blanket), mainly revue that seems to be liked by many.

*Sigh* hopefully I can decide before I have the money to order the next dvd

Both the husband and the wife ask of each other "Where is Elisabeth's love?"

I should really, really stop reading other blogs of Takarazuka fans. Now I have this little voice in my head that tells me to get every version of Elisabeth.
Eh, how about no? Though I could buy that Applause dvd thing, where are scenes from three first Elisabeths. I have also ordered (and still waiting...) Flower Troupe's version and have year 2005 Moon Troupes's production in my laptop. And since I don't care so much about year 2007's production (sorry Chika. But I still watch clips from yt), that would leave this year's version. So in a way, I would need to buy only two dvds.

Though my must buy list has become longer than would be wise. As I've said, I've ordered Flower's Elisabeth and also Cosmos' Never Say Goodbye, which is the last show for Wao and Hana (;__;).
Then;
A Kiss to the Flames/Neo Voyage - Even though the play would suck, but Wao/Hana <3 And the tearjerker scene
Lucifer's Tear/Tarantella - somehow Komu has stolen my heart (it must be how most of the times she looks like scared little boy, and though she looks so petite she has so much passion, especially when she dances) and I really, really want to have show where she is the Top Star. Well, this is her and Maa-chan's last show. And how I can go wrong with show that has a) very human Lucifer b) character dieing for about hour, and still do it in touching way c) revue, that is for half an hour almost non stop Komu dancing

and after those two comes messy pile of Phantom (probably Wao/Hana version, at first, because they are amazing just like that), Immortal Thorns (Need some Osasa love ;__; ), Ernest in Love (Umai! <3 Plus bit more Ai-chan can't hurt, right?), Last Play/Heat on Beat (last play of Asa is "must have") and then somehow bit more Komu love (with Tom, The Senka Goddess, please). And of course something with Yuu-kun (matte my darling~)

I haven't even listed those cds, books, magazines, or top star dvds etc I'd like also to purchase.

Yes, for the next....Ten years I'm going to be soo broke *sighs*

Anata ga ikitaiyo...

Yes, I've had Wao/Hana day. Really, they are THE Golden Combi for me. They just have that something. Of course both of them are great siennes by them own skills and merits, but when together they just have that sparkle that adds something more. And imo Hana is the best musumeyaku I've seen and her stats/months are next to none; she debutet during 1991 and at 1993 she became Top Star for Snow Troupe (she was only 20 years old) and lasted here for 46 months, until she was transferred to brand new Troupe, Cosmos,at 1998 from where she graduated at 2006, after being here for 102 (!!) months. She was Tops Star for 148 months/around 12/13 years. Believe or not, her , at least, Top Musumeyaku career is the longest in company's history, and I wonder if there's has been any otokoyakus as top longer than she had. Also Wao's career as top otokoyaku has been one of the longest ones.

I wish I could pinpoint what is *the* thing that makes them so great, but I just can't. Maybe I have found some things, but they're like trying to throw a ball to basket at dark, just lucky guesses that might hit, but more likely won't.
For me it feels like Wao had so much passion that was skillfully kept under control. Of course probably over 90% of siennes also have passion. But Wao's seems to be somehow...Different. And when she needed that extra amount...Just whoom. Like as Manrico, from Kiss to the Flames. Everytime I watch one spesific scene I almost start crying (of course Hana also plays big part at that).
And Hana...She comes, she charms you, does her job and you'll be like 'Wow...Wait, what the heck just happened'. She really can take the stage when she needs.


(I don't know the name of the song(s), but it's from Kiss to the Flames, that scene that makes me almost cry)


And so that at least my eyes won't stay dry, Wao and Hana as Phantom and Christine from, suprise suprise, Phantom of the Opera. And yay, subtitles.



Now I'm off to dry my eyes. Excuse me

Give them everything you've got, give them even more

Damn, I really should stop reading about "new" (for me) 'zuka plays, siennes etc. I have already decided that if everything goes well with my takarazuka dvd order (Elisabeth, 2002/Hanagumi <3), then A Kiss to the Flames, with Wao and Hana as Top Pair (as pair, I think they're the best, real Golden Combi), would be next. But now I'm starting to think about ordering Last Play/Heat on Beat. C'moon, it's Asa's last play! And Ahi's ;__; (Yeah, Rudolph/one of the color coded Hungarian Revolutionists needs some love too) and well, so many are retiring from Moon Troupe. Really, what I am going to do without Asa? And then, Yumiko is also retiring, and there has been rumours about Chika and Ginger seems to be retiring also and...Gosh, no!

Will be sorely missed

Oh, and; How can Komu (Asami Hikaru) be so effing cute? She just seems to be cute little darling. It has to be those eyes. And why does she seems to have knack for getting involved in those slashable m/m(and sometimes one more /m) dances?

(The slashable part starts around 2:30. And yes, it's Komu and Tom. Again)

But really, Komu as Rudolph is just so... I can almost say that it hurts to watch her poor Rudolph. Especially "Yami ga hirogaru". Maybe her and Zunko's voice don't match as well as, for example, Osa and Yumiko's, but there's just something...Her expressions, whole bodu language. Yes, it might be little bit exaggerated in Takarazuka style, but still. And I think her Oscar is The Oscar. There's no doubt about it.
*sighs* And yes, she retired back in 2006.
But really, I'd like to order something with her.

And of course there's those GRAPH magazines though I can't understand much of them, biut those poster and covers and pics and...Here we go again
