Japanese Musicals?

retty · (#1 (**permalink**))

I'm looking for a Japanese musical - if they exist! I've never ever heard of one, but I'd love to see one. So are there any, and does anyone know fo some good ones?

Do you mean you want to physically attend a musical? If so, I don't know what to tell you. I've only seen some musicals via net and stuff.

There are ones for Bleach, Sailor Moon, and Hunter x Hunter. I've never seen the Bleach or SM one, but I liked the Hunter x Hunter musicals.

Sorry, I mean musical movies. I can't get myself to Japan to see anything on the stage. Japanese dramas can be so cheesey at times that I think it's the perfect set up for a musical, but there just don't seem to be any around.

OMG, I recently downlaoded the Sailor Moon one, along with 32gb of old sailor moon episodes..

I was only hoping to see the transformation sequence, but it wasn't there...lol

on a serious note, it sucked.

Wasnt there recently a Kamen Rider musical? I think I have some of the music from it from another message board I visit.
