Adoption request for Mahoroba Kanata into the Hakumyu fan community
“Mahoroba Kanata” is a original work of the screen writer Nishida Daisuke, it follows the story of the Choshu clan centered by Takasugi Shinsaku, set in the Bakumatsu period. “Mahoroba” also called the ‘land of blessings’ in the Japanese folklore is something Takasugi dreams of to obtain.
Why do I want adopt it into Hakumyu (Hakuouki)?
The reason are simple and overflowing:
time period and story:
1) both are settled in the Bakumatsu period in a time frame between 1850ties and 1860ties
2) both are concentrate on a contrary opinions, none of them follows the concept of “We are right, you are wrong”
3) there is lot of suffering (maybe a bit more love in Mahoroba)
4) both like to joke and have unique, relatable characters
5) all characters are as well based on real history figures
cast and stuff
1) well as said before: Nishida Daisuke as director (active in Hakumyu since 2018)
2) Tomita Maho: - fourth Chizuru in Kazama Hen
- playing the role of Shinsaku’s faithfull and tomboiish wife O-Masa
3) Tanoue Marina: - fifth Chizuru in Toudou Hen
- playing the younger sister of Yoshida Shouin, named Fumi
4) Motonishi Sakiho: - ninth Chizuru in Shitan Kazama Hen
- playing the lover of Takasugi Shinsaku, called Ouno
5) Matsuda Ryo: - first Saito Hajime active until Kazama Hen
- playing the role of Katsuragi Goro
Shinsengumi
yes, they do appear and they play a minor role
publication and fandom
since it’s on one side an original work and on the other side not part of a series, there’s is no ‘active’ fandom, I would claim (at least outside of Japan) AND they don’t plan on ever publishing a DVD/BD, but since it’s such a high quality play, I find it sad to let it disappear into history’s shadow.
Why is Mahoroba Kanata attractive on it’s own?
It’s easy to be answered, because it has it all: great music, great story, overwhelming feelings, great actors and great acting, fun bits and good bits and and tearing apart sad parts, great visuals, a beautiful stage - did I forgot something?
Whole cast list:
