Hana Doll the stage 2 things

I once again watched hana doll the stage 2 over and over again.

And simply I think it's another great adaptation of the first season. It covers the 2nd half of S2 and once again included scenes from the manga (chap. KAORU and chap. RYOGA), and they added some silly yet audience interaction scenes, which is super cool!!! (*clenches fist* if my Japan trip wasn't canceled....)

The stage effects are so so good again!!

Ryusei acted the sad/depressed Mahiro scenes so well! I was so surprised and I think I preferred this performance on Mahiro than the one from the tracks.

RYOCHIS *eats* MAHIKAOS *eats*

LIHITOOOOOOO I LOVE HOW NAO ACTS AS LIHITO ONCE AGAIN. HE'S PERFECT!!!.

They added another new stage only scene that establishes the connection to Lihito and Chise again

Anyways that's all I can remember atm and godddd I love hana stage so much.....love the actors so much in this they did so amazing again....hanastage 3 when please....

Bonus from my live reaction:

I've watched HanaDoll the stage like 5-6 times and I really love it a lot i wont say too much cause I wanna be brief and don't wanna say big spoilers so!

It covers the first half of 1st season they ended it with Chise's blooming! they covered chap 1 of the manga as well!

the casting is very good, they acted very well and portrayed their characters very well. and the outfits are so niceeee. The idol outfits are super well made, i like the training outfits(Chise's pink training outfit was so cute) and GOD I love the casual outfits, they looks so nice and now you can tell their fashion senses easier but also MAHIRO'S SHIRTS????? it's so silly I want t get his dog one and the other shirt he had was a panda and rice

The stage was pretty small which worried me at first but they made up for it with the visual projection they used in the whole area and I think they made the small stage work with how they all don't go out much or need space to move everywhere (they're mostly at the dorm or lesson room)

PLANTs popping around once in a while made me happy. I love their PLANTs prop and I love PLANTs. they put him on a lil trolly or it's in a moving wall with a door

the flow is pretty good and the ad-libs are super funny

they've added extra scenes to fill up the missing context in the Lihito bloom scene (HOW HE BLOOMED MADE SENSE IM SO HAPPPYYYYY) I think HanaStage is very good for old fans and introducing HanaDoll to new people. I really recommend it! I love Anthos and I came to love them even more after watching the stage play no seriously i nearly cried several times on first watch it was that good!! I'm super excited for part 2 of the stage on autumn
