Rikkai and DL4th thoughts only a year late.

[fencer_x]

--Really wasn't impressed with RikkaiMyu, so skipping Rikkai2. Not a fan of Rikkai anyways :/ If there's anything ZOMG amazing I'm missing...tell me about it. Songs I ABSOMGLUTELY must hear, upload them? :D
--Saving grace: Setomaru had Eiji's look and mannerisms down pat, but needed acting work. With his looks/age and Nagayan's acting ability, they would be a TERRIFYINGLY AMAZING Eiji o___o
--only song in Rikkai1 I liked that I hadn't already heard was Oishi no Territory. Mostly because it made me remember that Oishi talk track with the hair dryer...hee.

DL4th: UH, STANDING UP FOR 2 HOURS? DDDDD: Are all the Dream Lives that way? I never paid attention before, BUT I HATE THAT.
--Wow, is Fukkatsu Golden Pair GAY.
--Takki and Setomaru obviously learned a lot from Tuti and Nagayan when they visited; this is the most blatant GP fanservice in a Dream Live since DL1st. Incredibly cute.
--Seriously, this song is so gay. I love how it starts off all "teammate"-y, talking about winning together, moving forward, getting strength from each other blahblahblaj, and then is all WEIRD AND AMBIGUOUS, talking about, "What's this sense of peace I feel around you??" and being fated to be together and shit dsliufhsidfs hahahaa.

Eiji: "Oishi...there's something I've wanted to tell you for a while now..."
Oishi: "Huh? What is it?"
Eiji: "...Nah, it's nothing."
Oishi: "Actually, Eiji, I have something I've wanted to tell you for a while, too..."
Eiji: "Eeh?? What is it, Oishi??"
Oishi: "Iya, I'll tell you some other time!"

--oh my god they killed Depend on Me ;_; I'VE NEVER HATED THIS SONG. BUT WHEN SUCH BAD PEOPLE SING IT... The only good thing was that they let the ACTUAL Golden Pair sing "Ore to omae wa Golden Pair~" (the first time around, at least -_-) and didn't change the lyrics or anything. I'm so serious, if I'd been at this show, I WOULD have complained on the anketto >_> Give me Nagayan making fun of Tuti singing it over this messed up doubles song any day ;_;
--seriously, wtf GP fanservice. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING THESE KIDS OUT, TUTI. NAGAYAN. IT'S ALL THANKS TO GREAT GAY SENPAI LIKE YOU.

Have to admit I've only ever watched DL4 once. I'm very fond of the 3rd Seigaku cast, Takki and Seto particularly, but... new versions of my favourite songs by people who sound nothing like the originals?!? Definitely not the way to make me like the new guys -_-

The Rikkais' were, in my opinion, okay musicals but possibly I've been swayed by the excessive fangirling I received from Laura when I was staying with her XD

I liked the second Rikkai myu better than the first, but I still haven't figured out if it was just because I had a better seat for the second one ^^;; I think the songs were better though, and I'm pretty sure their singing improved... and the dancing was good? ^^;

I have to look trough Rikkai2 again and I'll tell you if there is anything worth watching :P And about Seto - so true, I've always said that he looks so much like Eiji and because I keep up with D-Boys stuff, even in real life he almost acts the same way. Him and Nagayan combined would be...really like watching Eiji himself. And one of the very few things I like about the third cast is the GP *__* Nothing like TxN but still Takki and Seto were a really good combination and the fanservice was awesome as well. And I don't even want to mention Depend on me -.- They all sang the lines as if they were all the GP...And by the way when did Takki and Seto met with Tuti and Nagayan?

And by the way when did Takki and Seto met with Tuti and Nagayan?

Last March, for a few weeks, the Bleach and TeniMyu casts shared a rehearsal hall (different floors), when BuriMyu was about to have No Clouds, and TeniMyu was about to have Dream Live 4th.

Takki mentioned here (http://ameblo.jp/takiguchi-sd/archive23-200703.html) that he'd gone to the BuriMyu rehearsal hall himself looking for Tuti to get advice on "Just what does it mean to be the Golden Pair?", but that Tuti wasn't taking part in rehearsals yet. A few days later he posted this (http://ameblo.jp/takiguchi-sd/archive20-200703.html) saying that he finally got to meet Tuti, and went out to eat with him--and unfortunately, that Setomaru was unable to meet with Nagayan at the time.
Here (http://www.mmv.co.jp/special/tennis_musical/play/dreamlive_4th/diary/070322.html)'s the link to the TeniMyu diary part of it--you can see Tuti and Nagayan in the last picture.

The text says: "And today, the first cast's Golden Pair came over to our hot rehearsal hall! The first Oishi, Tsuchiya-kun, seemed full of nostalgia~"

If you have DL4th, I suggest going back and watching it knowing that Tuti and Nagayan gave Takki and Setomaru advice about their characters' interactions :D

[denkira.livejournal.com]

Wow thanks so much about telling me this! That was so cute really *___* I love that Tuti and Nagayan went to see the third cast rehearsals and that they gave them advice om how to be the Golden Pair *___* Because really nobody would know better than them ^o^ And very soon I'm going to watch all the myus again, so I'll definitely pay more atention to Takki and Seto's play in DL4th ^o^

[katsu.livejournal.com]

The backstage is worth watching. XD Mamo is such a crazy spazz. <333

And you don't HAVE to stand all the time. During DL4th only the 1st floor was "allowed" to stand. You could as well just sit down again. XD;; But that depends on the venue I guess.

[miken-chan.livejournal.com]

Depend on me...*thinks for a second* Gah! That reminds me...I still have to watch St. Rudolph! *shot* Well, I listened to bot the DL4th and the St. Rudolph version...I have to agree with you fully there~ ^-^
*hasn't watched anything past gradmyu*

AMBIGUOUS LYRICS *wink*XD

lulz, I can't spell

I love how more than half of your DL4th thoughts are for Fukkatsu XD I LOVE THIS GP SO MUCH. Mostly Takki's fault.

Hm. Rikkai2? There's... There's Seto twirling the racket in the backstages. HE PWNS ALL AT RACKET TWIRLING. Um... Hm. The myu... Well, Doori is still my favorite Ryoma, and he was just so much FUN in Rikkai2. And I kind of really loved Aiba's non-expression expressions in Kachi ni Shuchaku Suru Otoko... Oh, um, the... Makeru Wake Ni Wa Ikanai ~ Dakara Katsu No Wa, with Oishi/Eiji-Niou/Yagyuu-Fuji-Kirihara. It's my favorite part of the myu... Okay, I really don't know if anything I'll say is going to convince you to watch Rikkai2. It's my favorite musical because it's the graduation of my favorite cast, so I'm terribly biased in its favor...
