Wait, so far they've only announced two female cast members and they can't add anymore, really? Maybe I could understand if this set number of females allowed includes background character but no, having a rule that you can only have a set number of one gender of actors sounds kinda dumb. Really wonder how they're gonna pull it off if they're missing two main characters on stage....

Must be a modern kabuki troupe or something.

Wait, is it just me or is that a really sexist policy? There are only two women so far, and lots of guys... That's ridiculous. I've lost interest to go see it.

Murder, She wrote:

According to Asanuma, on-stage actors for the characters of Naoto and Rise could not be included due to a policy held by the play's production company that prevented him from adding more female cast members.


Hahahaha........... this policy would work well in keeping out harem baits! Laughing

It's ... it's not that I love Rie Kugimiya or anything! It's just coincidence I watch everything she's in. Be grateful!
