The official Prince of Tennis musical website is...
http://www.mmv.co.jp/products/flyer/tennis_musical/

As a fan of The Prince of Tennis, I am biased, but I think they did an excellent job with these musicals. The first musical was a little rough, but they've steadily gotten better. So far, all of them have been released on DVD as well... which is nice for us not in Japan. Smile
Although at first I was reluctant to watch them, I found myself loving them in the end and happily awaiting more.

It'll be interesting to see how this musical plays out... and what plot sections they use from BLEACH. The Prince of Tennis musicals started from the beginning of the series and have continued the plot from there (There have been 4 musicals, 1 "concert" and the second musical was redone with some new actors. They're preparing for a second "concert" now). If anyone has more information, feel free to add/correct to what I said. Also, several of the original actors from the Prince of Tennis musicals are participating in the BLEACH musical. Which will probably attract new fans... Wink

I'm guessing some of the "guys" are really girls, ne? ^_-

If you mean in the musical, no actually. They're all boys.
There are few girls in the Prince of Tennis series, and Sakuno (one of the main girls) is left out of the musicals since she rarely actually plays tennis. So all the roles are boys played by boys...
Some really pretty Japanese boys though. ^^;

Weird. And I thought that the whole musical thing only plagued magical girl anime.

Well, if yall say the Prince of Tennis musical was really good, I can't wait for the Bleach one to hit DVDs.
