Switch wo Osu Toki info

[fencer_x]

Amazon Japan summary of 「スイッチを押すとき」 ("Switch wo Osu Toki"--"When You Throw the Switch"):

増加する青少年の自殺に終止符を打つため、政府が立ち上げた恐るべきプロジェクトとは…。生きる意味を問う衝撃のストーリー。

"In order to put a stop to the increasing number of young suicides, the government starts up a terrifying new project... A shocking story that questions the meaning of life."

All right...let's see here *hits up Nagayan's site* Oh lookit that, general ticket sales don't go on sale til April 29th...hmm *checks Rakuten anyways*

...eh?

Ok, people, help me out here. This is what comes up when I search for the name of the play. Two hits back--one is 発売中 (meaning tickets are on sale now) and the other says 一般発売 ： 04/29 [土] 10:00 (general ticket sales start April 29th, 10 AM). The problem is...THEY LOOK THE SAME.

Here's the one with ticket sales going on now--it's the same play, times are the same, cast is the same, dates are the same, everything. So why are the tickets on sale now?!

If you look here the tickets haven't gone on sale yet--you can even see every time is still available, when some nights are already sold out on the previous one. HEEEEEEELP!! *so confused*

Still, damn this looks like a GOOD PLAY. Very dark, very angsty, so unlike anything we've seen these boys do before. Nagayan seems like a good choice, I'll bet he does wonderful in it. *flails* WHY IS THIS SO CONFUSING????

Ok, dumb question, but when you say "Nagayan's site" which site do you mean? XD;;;;

And furthermore. Why does everything have to be so confusing??? *headdesk* XD;;;

The acting profile page thingy here (http://www.geiei.co.jp/profile/nagayamatakasi/nagayama.html) that I have no real word for XD

And it's confusing because Japan hates us ♥

Oh, ok... I was wondering if that was it. ^_~ I love that new picture he's using. ♥

And yes. Cruel Japan! ;__;

Please tell me you guys are going to watch.

just weighing options at this point XD

I think this play would show us a side of Nagayan we've never seen before, considering how sensitive the subject is. I got the jist of the play, and the other actors/actress look great (for some reason, I can totally see Aiba in a role like this). NARGH, I WANNA GO! But a plane ticket for July is $1300, and those tickets are $50 if you get them from Japan (Y!J would probably be more expensive). Oh Japan, every time I get close to coming over there, you make it more difficult for me.

Why are you so worried about it? Think it would be sold out or something by the time we were able go get tickets? I dunno; as much as Mom's on board for this, I would hate to buy a ticket and then not be able to go. But I guess, in the large scheme of things, if I spent $50 or so to hold a spot and I couldn't go, it's only $50 that I lost (not like if I bought that plane ticket and then couldn't go. Then I'd be pissed).

Well, keep me updated. Oh, how'd the T/N anthology thingie go?

[fencer-x.livejournal.com]

It's not so much worried about them being sold out as, if possible, I'd prefer to get them through rakuten than Y!J since they're a) cheaper and b) don't have to worry about fighting fangirls tooth and nail to pay for them.

Thing is also, if we all three get to go, we can just buy three tickets at once, and no harm no foul. Less hassle that way.

As for the T/N anthology, I transferred the money from paypal yesterday (so it should get to my bank account early next week) and as soon as I've got it, I can mail off the money order :D then it'll be another few days for it to get to her--she said she'd contact me when it arrives *crosses fingers*--and she'll ship the doujins to us, EMS all the way~ XDDDDD

[reppu.livejournal.com]

Hmm, good point. I'd hate to fight the fangirls too. And I think it'd be a one-night thing if we went, because I want to see Treasure Box too, and PaniSuta, and Mandrake, and tons of other stuff around Tokyo. Nagoya's 1.5 hours away by shinkansen, so who knows when I'll be in Tokyo again?

Though I wouldn't worry about the one that has the tickets on sale now. Maybe it's pre-order or something? Every site I check says 4.29.06, so I'm just gonna trust that.

Did you have enough for the anthologies? Didn't have to take out too much from your account, I hope. EMS is good because it's nice and trackable. If you send the funds out next week, Monday or Tuesday, it takes 5-7 days to get there. From that point, it'll be a week to get back here. Consider that when you tell her where to send the books, since you might be leaving school when they finally arrive.

Oh, and be sure to start thinking out your passport. Do you have one right now? It's $97 to get from the post office (though mine was $157, but I had it sent express. The government got it back in a week, I was so surprised! It was supposed to take two weeks!). If you got one before and you were under the age of 16, you might have to get another one, and the $97 passport takes six weeks to get back to you, so think about getting one now. You probably know all this already, but it doesn't hurt to mention it again. ^^;;

Switch, Panisuta, Treasure Box, Mandarake, 23874648323 other doujin sites, there's SO MUCH I want to do >_< so yeah, I want to get some info.

I wound up with just over $200 for the anthologies, and it's about $240 total with everything, so I can cover the last bit. I've got another $15 here with me already in MO form, plus a good bit more on its way to (hopefully >_>) Good to know it won't take that long to get there, though. I've got forwarding on my P.O. box, though, so I'm not going to worry about that.

And I'm not going to mess with a passport til I have more details though...it's still safe now, got some time. Thanks for the info though XD *didn't know that, actually*
