堂本光一 「七人の侍」 news reports

[kristy_kxk]

Alright, so I was really looking forward to this special play of Koichi that came as a surprised not only to us fans but to Koichi himself too. It seems that he wasn't told he will be scheduled for something like this. Sadly, I wasn't that lucky to attend this so when I watch the news reports, alot of emotions started coming to me. Sad? Happy?

Sorry I have no idea how to download from Tudou ~ I'm sure someone will eventually post it.

It was super awesome.

Well alot of people were complaining that there was not enough Koichi blah blah blah or not enough talking.

But I think what people don't realize is that this was not a musical nor was it a concert.

This was more of a SUPER ELABORATE Fashion Show.

[kristy_kxk]

Those people probably are Koichi's fans. I don't think the focus is mainly on Koichi although it was pretty obvious 60% of the show was, seeing him being the main character of the story instead of the original Seven Samurai story.

However, I think fans should really try to see things in other angles. I'm not sure of the Super elaborated Fashion Show, because eh..I don't see it as a fashion show either. (Fashion Show in Kristy's dictionary = extremely skinny women, walking up and down the aisle without any expression on their faces)

I would think it as a SUPER GRAND stage play instead. I mean, it was SUPPOSED to be a show with action, fighting. And given there were 7 other people (including the director Yamamoto Kansai-san) we should give the show a balance rather than focusing on Koichi only. Oh well, I can't say it's entirely true for me, since I wasn't there to watch it, so I won't know if my focus will only be on Koichi ornot. XDDDD

I hope I will get a chance to see this somehow. *prays*

So it taken me some time..and I forgot what I wanted to share in my blog when I saw this news this morning. LOL

[yoru_no_hikaru]

Yay! I've been waiting for show reports! Thank you so much!

But WAH!!!!! No safety wires. Scary! >_< Glad everything went smoothly. ^^
Again, thanks for this! ^^

[kristy_kxk]

Me too! I've been waiting to catch a glimpse of the show (since we don't know whether a DVD release is scheduled) You're welcome. =)

Yup! Not only everything went smoothly, everything was in tip top shape !! It was really a fantastic show from what I can see from the reports.

[yoru_no_hikaru]

Omg, I haven't even thought about that. Right, it might come out on DVD. I'm witing so bad for SHOCK right now, I didn't even consider that.

Oh, I'm glad it was such a big success. ^^

[kristy_kxk]

Hmm..but it seems like there won't be any DVD release at this moment, according to Yamamoto-san.

Are you going to watch Endless SHOCK next year ??

[tsuyoi_hikari]

I have to say the show is really GRAND. I mean esp when they shoot the water for the finale, it look totally awesome and amazing. A stage play that center around water have never been done before, so I'm totally impressed Koichi got the chance to starred in this. This year must be an insane year for him. He is just everywhere. Though I wish Tsuyo as active as him... :(

Will be looking forward for next year. I hope they are more active as KinKi Kids. :) The interval between singles are longer now... And I don't like it. DX

[kristy_kxk]

Yup! I agree ! It was fantastic !! I mean, I really love water incorporated with performance..so the emphasis was on water?? LOL Its really a pity I couldn't get the chance to watch this, and this won't be a regular like Endless SHOCK. So..I don't know. =) Hmm..Tsuyoshi is active in his own solo works. He had been having his solo live back in Nara when Koichi was touring for BPM.

But yes, they hardly get together this year. Its more focused on solo this year.

Hmm..active as KinKi Kids or not, I rather them take it slowly, especially Koichi. Seeing that he had been so hectic and busy this year, I rather him take a bit of rest release a few DVDs (like Endless SHOCK 2010, and BPM DVD) Should also give fans' bank and purse abit of breather first at least.

I'm not complaining thou, at least the are releasing something. haha! XD And I seriously need to slow down on buying their stuffs.. T__T

[tsuyoi_hikari]

The show is sure grand. Wish I will get the chance someday to watch a theater as grand as this one. :)

I know Tsuyo has been having his live at Nara but it's not a concert tour like Koichi is having. Not to add that Ko-chan has been busy with 3 long months of SHOCK and 7 Samurai at the same time. I just wish he is more active like when he was younger. I longed for him to act again. His acting talents are wasted if he didn't use it. Plus, it's been more than one year since he release any solo single/album... :(

It's true... We need to slow down in buying their stuffs. XD~ I noticed that KinKi stuffs are usually more expensive than other Johnny's groups and when both Koichi and Tsuyo release their solo stuffs, it becomes even more expensive. XD XD

[kristy_kxk]

yeah me too. But I want to watch it in Japan
