Why Maki Ichiro is my antidrug

After a bad day, I put on the Eternal Muse video (Ichiro retrospective and sayonara show). And I have to laugh. I mean, it's got:
- the ronin lovechild of Percy Blakeney and Herbert von Krolock
- gorilla suits
- brave racers
- peevish demons
- bodice ripping
- bodice microphone malfunctions
- Ichiro and Tom trying to outsing each other (at the end, Maki throws her suitcase at Tom ♥)
- a Death getting tackled by angels for photo purposes
- Maki Ichiro in a white veil, in a shopping cart, with flowers and confetti

That's why I'm into Takarazuka. Because at the end of the day, it lets me find better emotions.

(And I need to find a way to screencap it if I have to photograph the TV set. Just for the Bow Hall show announcement that she ends by sticking her tongue out as far as it will go.)

EDIT: And speaking of my favourite Takarasiennes, look what Youtube threw at me. Hiromi in a dress :>

It's a segment just before the final Elisabeth performance in Takarazuka :) Maki's already in her prologue getup and all the black angels are milling around her, then one of them proposes photos and there is... confusion ;) Most of them just grab on her, but I haven't yet been able to identify the one that goes "RAR".

Yay for Takarasiennes! Boo for bad work day. It's going to be the weekend soon though!

Hopefully :) And hopefully I'll be able to spend it actually at home.
