1) Takki is the special guest in Nikki-san’s essay in “Gekkan Musical” January 2010 issue. Btw, Nikki-san is also the special guest in Takki’s Tokyo Walker essay “Korette Shinsen desu ne” Vol. 82 & 83.

2) Just received a mailer from CDJapan that Mori Mitsuko’s Special Dinner Show will be released on DVD. This was released in VHS format in 1996, but new footage has been added and it made into a DVD. According to Shinseido, the special footage is “Takizawa Hideaki, Imai Tsubasa, Special Talk Show (about 42 minutes)”. The release date is 10th February 2010. (Amazon is selling it at 26% off.) Now, when is the Takizawa Kakumei’09 DVD gonna be released?! It’s 2 more days till the end of the year i.e. expiration date of my coupon lol~

Huge thanks to Nyanco for the text! XD Tono updated Takiren again even when he’s so busy with rehearsals~ honto ni arigato :)

Takizawa Rengou Vol. 374

28 Dec

O・Kakumei
This time it’s a model. In the rehearsal venue, because there are no real sets or the various systems, we make models to represent all the sets. By looking at these models, we confirm our movements or work out the presentations. It’s really tough for the staff By the way, there are also models for the cast. The one in the middle is Mori-san, and on her side are Nishiki-san and me, the uraban (secret gang leader) Ah, this time, until senshuuraku, I think Mori-san will be the zachou (chairman) and I’ll be the urabanchou (secret gang leader) I’ll give my all~~

Today’s Picture
(links to pic of a miniature model set of the stage, with 3 small figures in the middle)

Lol~~ “O・Kakumei” instead of “Ai・Kakumei” XD And when I saw “banchou”, the image of gang leader Takizawa from Takisamacon immediately appeared in my mind! Iya, only 3 days left! I hope that they’ll have time to wash their hair at least lol…

This is a continuation from Part 2.

Noren
At the entrance of my dressing room, I’ve always been hanging this noren* which was given to me by Mori Mitsuko-san back when I did the stage play “Mask”. This noren has a pink base, and white wordings “Takizawa Hideaki-sama from Mori-Mitsuko” and I’ve already been using it for more than 10 years.

* noren: traditional Japanese fabric dividers, which usually have one or more vertical slits cut from the bottom to nearly the top of the fabric, allowing for easier passage or viewing.
