SUMMARY
Kudan Suzujiro (Sato Ryuji) is a gambler who has been left all alone in the world. With a greedy nature and sticky fingers, he is loved only by the God of Gambling. One day, Suzujiro wins a bet with a demon, and gets his hands on a beautiful woman. The name of the woman is "Hakana" (Nanaki Kanon). This beautiful woman is a person who has been made from the best parts of a collection of corpses. But, she is someone who cannot be laid with until 100 days after her birth. It is said that if she is laid with before the 100 days are up, she will turn into water and flow away.

Hypnosis Mic -D.R.B.- Rule the Stage (Liberty Guild vs. Dotsuitare Hompo)
Sypnosis:
After managing to defeat the other teams in the qualifying rounds, it is announced that Liberty Guild will be the team representing Okinawa Division in the D.R.B. This is a first, as they will be the first-ever foreign team to participate in a Japanese rapping tournament.
After a day of work, Ace Douglas, leader of Liberty Guild, prepares to leave and head back to Okinawa. However, he is stopped by none other than Rei Amayado, a well-known conman and a member of Osaka Division's rap team, the Dotsuitare Hompo. Though the two have seen each other in Chuohku, they've not actually talked to each other before this moment.
When Ace inquires Rei as to what he wants, the conman simply offers him two tickets to a comedy show hosted by his friend, Sasara Nurude, leader of the Dotsuitare Hompo. Though he doesn't fully trust Rei and has no liking for Japanese comedy, Ace, nonetheless, takes the tickets, if only so he can hurry up and begone from the conman's presence. Upon returning to Eagle's Nest, he offers the tickets to his girlfriend and fellow team member, Evelyn Rose, who begs Ace to come with her. Though he doesn't want to, he eventually gives in.
While the two are at the show, Rashaad Young, owner of Eagle's Nest and the third member of Liberty Guild, is taking an afternoon nap, which, unfortunately, is interrupted by none other than Rei, whom Rashaad has had dealings with in the past. Though he doesn't trust the conman, he reluctantly lets him in the bar and asks him what he wants. At first, Rei evades the question, but then answers by asking Rashaad what are his reasons for joining the D.R.B. Rashaad retorts by flipping the question back to Rei, who, again, evades answering. He finishes the drink that Rashaad gave him and prepares to leave, but not before warning Rashaad that getting mired in events that don't concern him will put him in a bad spot. Rashaad simply states that Rei should 'take his own advice'.
Meanwhile, at the show, Ace decides to give it a chance as Sasara begins his routine. However, the comedian's humor is lost on the diplomat, and he spends the remainder of his time on his cell phone, browsing through PROFILE. This doesn't go unnoticed by Sasara who chooses to mix things up a bit by telling jokes about America, which doesn't escape Ace's attention. At first, he doesn't really mind until one of Sasara's jokes goes too far and insults his grandfather. This causes Ace to lose his temper and step on stage where he then makes a "joke" about Sasara's horrid rap and comedy skills. At this point, a rap battle ensues that ends in a draw between the two leaders.
The very next day, news of the incident reaches everywhere throughout Japan. Rei, who foresaw this occurring, is pleased as he knew that Ace would lose his cool when his country is involved. It is for this reason that a match between the Liberty Guild and the Dotsuitare Hompo is scheduled to occur. Although all of Okinawa and a few outlying areas are on the side of Liberty Guild, they are hopelessly outnumbered, as most of Japan is on the side of Osaka Division. This does little to hamper Ace, as he promises to get revenge on Sasara for his words.
Now, with the two teams facing each other, the battle soon begins. Will Liberty Guild manage to uphold the honor and pride of America in this epic fight? Or will the Dotsuitare Hompo have the last laugh against the United States team?

Today’s blog entry. He said “thank you for the replies” (about which SNS he should use) and he said he’ll talk to his manager about it soon. He had Yowapeda Drama shooting today as usual. He shot that panoramic photo himself. Baba Ryoma even featured that photo on his own Instagram and captioned it as “photo by y.tomotsune” lol

Aoharu Tetsudou Rails Live 2019
I’m posting this really late... A week and I half ago I went to the Aoharu Tetsudou Rails live
The cast is: Nagayama Takashi, Kimeru, Kujirai Kousuke, Inagaki Seiya, Gomoto Naoya, Takahashi Yuuta, Watanabe Kouji, Takagi Shun, Yamamoto Ikkei, Itagaki Rihito, Hashimoto Taito, Kamisato Yuuki, Iwa Yoshito, Takiguchi Yukihiro, Baba Ryouma, Iwaki Naoya, Takasaki Shouta, Hashimoto Sei and Hijikata Yuzuki
The show was amazing and I wish I could go again. The performances were the best yet for most of the actors and the atmosphere was amazing.
Show breakdown under the cut.
Slight warning - This is what I wrote afterwards but I can’t be 100% sure I got all the scenes in the correct order
First was  Tsunagaru Aoharu Tetsudou 2019 ~ Opening
The trains who had solo lines in the song were Rinkai, IGR, Yamanote, Shinetsu, Hokuriku Shinkansen, Nagano Shinkansen, Chiyoda, Marunouchi, Joban, Ginza There was a short sung bit with Utsunomiya and Takasaki, like in Aoharu 3 and same with the Tokkaido brothers
They had a platform that rose up with all the actors on it at the start which was really cool. Both Watanabe Kouji and Kimeru did two character solos so they had to run off after singing their first one but it was done very neatly and I didn’t notice.
When Hokuriku Shinkansen sung, last, he rose up from a different platform at the back of the stage which was very cool
The next scene was the Tokkaido brothers and everyone else ran off the stage.
Tokkaido Shinkansen sang Tetsudou Hakubutsukan e yokoso from the first stage and they added a new verse for the live. The children joined again but I’m not sure if they were extras or members of the cast because from where I sat one looked really like Baba Ryouma There was also a Sanyo Shinkansen punching bag that they attacked a lot during the song Once the song was finished they discussed why the live is being held which was basically just because Tokkaido Shinkansen wanted to do it. He then made Tokkaido Honsen call people to ask for them to join.
Honsen first calls Takasaki and Utsunomiya. They agree, and Keihin-Tohoku is sharpening a knife at the side.  Utsunomiya scares Honsen off stage and Takasaki, Utsunomiya and Keihin-Tohoku come centre stage.
Utsunomiya says that he wants to sing but he and Takasaki don’t have a song so they sing Tobu and Chichibu's love song, Heikousen, which was hilarious as it meant Takasaki had to profess his love for Utsunomiya Tobu runs on very angry at the end of the song because they stole his and Chichibu’s song.  He is much shorter than both of them but steps forward to talk about the letter he wrote Chichitetsu, reference to the Seibu group play, and sings 'Chichitetsu My love’ with Seibu Chichibu.
Seibu Chichibu seems to like Tobu a lot but Tobu just ignores him as he only likes the non Seibu Chichibu
Next Marunouchi and Ginza come on and discuss the live. 
Ginza says he wants to participate just so he can talk about Hayakawa-san and the two sing both of their songs Then they leave together Akita comes on eating with Yamagata Shinkansen. He says he wants to eat and then starts to sing his solo song from the second play but stops very quickly and is just eating so Yamagata continues the song for him. Akita joins back in for the last verse and they duet the last bit of the song together
Then Yamanote comes on depressed because he thinks he isn’t important as he was a special guest in all previous appearances and not many people saw Takagi Shun’s first performance as Yamanote and the others, Utsunomiya, Takasaki and Keihin-Tohoku, kinda help to cheer him up He then sings his solo song ‘Guruguru mawaru kodoku na boku’ In all of Keihin-Tohoku’s scenes there were a lot of jokes about him not being in the original comics anymore
Chiyoda comes on and then Joban, in a sailor uniform 
Chiyoda is really confused and asks if he can sing their duet in that outfit He changes on stage, surprising Chiyoda, and they sing their duet song
Then it was Juniac Holmes featuring Rinkai, Keihin-Tohoku and Tokkaido Honsen Rinkai entered from the audience and shook hands with people, blew them kisses. He was really people’s signs and did what they asked him to do. Honsen only came in when Rinkai stood on stage and threw his shirt open Junaic Holmes song, Kujirai Kousuke’s voice sounds really good live Rinkai wants Honsen to look for Saikyo as Rinkai wants to sing his duet but he cant because Saikyo isn’t there So, Honsen suggests that they stand in for Saikyo and so Rinkai sings his song with Keihin-Tohoku 
Issho ni narou, so amazing. Ikkei’s voice live is something I will never forget, his voice is so soothing and nice.
Keihin-Tohoku plays along with the song and is kinda sweet to Rinkai and acts like Saikyo.
Then Seibu group came on: Seibu Ikebukuro, Seibu Shinjuku, Seibu Ahina, Seibu Sayama, Seibu Seibuen and Seibu Chichibu Leo liner was also brought back. I think he was played by Iwa Yoshito, which would make sense as he is not on very much
Sayama chased Leo onto the stage and Leo attacked him. Sayama died and had to be brought back by chanting Kaichou. He was killed once more later when Leo rips his heart out
They sang 3 songs in total, the first one being ‘Seibu butai no kibou no hikari’ Then Tobu came on angry that they got their own section and overpowered them with his aura and they became his back up dancers for flying Tojo.  After the song they all left then Ahina and Shinjuku came back on. Ahina is sad because his line was permanently suspended Shinjuku tries to reassure him then goes off to do something
Ahina goes back to the Seibu house and they sing ‘Happy haisen, omedeto Ahina’ Ahina is really upset at the end that they are celebrating his suspension and leaves The others don't act sad at all, reopening the door he slammed to wave goodbye before closing it again. Shinjuku comes back on with a marriage certificate so Ahina will join Shinjuku and doesn't have to go. Ahina is really happy and hugs Shinjuku. The others all opened the door to spy on them and looks fondly at the pair They then sing the Seibu group all members song, I can’t remember the name. And go off.
Then Tokkaido brothers come back on and announce the live has officially started. Honsen saying the live has been going for a while though. They sing refresh Nissan again with everyone, Utsunomiya, Takasaki, Keihin-Tohoku, Yamagata, Akita and Yamanote, as a back up dancer. 
After the song they all leave
Then Nagano Shinkansen comes on and reads a creepy letter from Shinetsu who then tries to hug Nagano  He punches him and then Shinetsu runs off He quickly comes back on and Hokuriku comes on and well Hokuriku starts squeezing Shinetsu's head but Nagano gets him to stop They then sing a new song called the future me. I thought it was really good and well sung. Rihito and Kouji’s voices sound really good together.
Then it was the Shinjuku and Ahina flashback from the seibu musical and they sang their duet.
Then it was the Takasaki and Utsunomiya flashback from the 3rd musical which Utsunomiya wanted to do but Takasaki was reluctant so Utsunomiya had to talk him into it.
Then Joetsu comes on and says he's feeling lonely without Joetsu Shinkansen and IGR comes on and says the same.  Again, all the non Seibu lines come on and they sing a new song about not being alone and having a party. 
I absolutely loved this song and it’s probably one of my favourite from the entire musical.  At the end there is a video with Joetsu Shinkansen saying a message for Joetsu.
They then sing Tokkaido brothers song, newly remixed for 2019, with all of the non Seibu others as back up dancers
Then they say that that's the end and they only have one song left The sing tsunagaru ending - Yokosuka, Seibu shinjuku, Yamagata Shinkansen, Akita Shinkansen, Utsunomiya, Takasaki, Keihin-Tohoku, Tokkaido Honsen, Tokkaido Shinkansen.
  They then leave but come back on and sing the party song again. Tokkaido shinkansen told everyone to sing along but then Honsen said ‘How can they sing along? It’s a new song, no one knows the words’ and everyone laughed a lot.
I was so glad they sang this song again and it was fun seeing it with everyone at the end.
Then they sing the real final song which was also new I think it was called Rails live 2019. I remember one line that was repeated a lot and was in English ‘Happiness is a way of travel, not just a destination’
I thought it sounded a bit weird for like a day until I realised that was because in English the word order would usually be the other way around I think.
Overall thoughts: I was so impressed by Takasaki Shouta, he did make some mistakes with the dances and didn’t sing all of the lines new songs but I think he had less than half the rehearsal time of everyone else as he was originally not going to be in it. So, definitely well done to him. Yamamoto Ikkei and Takki were my absolute standouts. The latter, completely to my surprise. Yamamoto makes his two characters so distinctive and different, and his singing is amazing and so different in both characters. His voice is definitely my favourite out of everyone’s and it was amazing to hear live.  Takki was really funny. I loved his interactions with Takasaki Shouta the most so I think if Shouta hadn't been there I wouldn't have liked him even half as much. It’s kinda showed as though Tojo only have eyes for Chichibu Tetsudou but Seibu Chichibu has feelings for Tojo and was trying to make him notice him.  I thought Taito's voice sounded forced anytime I heard it on DVD but I don’t think that anymore. I think his singing voice has this weird quality to it which doesn't work for me on DVD but sounds amazing live Ahina and Shinjuku were super cute. They actually signed the marriage contract in this show so they are officially married. I was reassured about Shin’etsu who I always found rather creepy and I always heard people laughing on the DVD But when I saw it they weren't laughing at Shin’etsu being creepy, they laughed when he got punched It is kinda weird but super cute how Shouta and Nagano's actor are so close and such good friends Everyone seemed so happy to have Shouta there and he did a very short speech at the end saying he was so happy to be there. And he definitely worked super hard for this play and really wanted to be in it even though he is meant to be at Osomatsu rehearsals.
I loved this show and am 100% buying the DVD when it comes out. Which is sadly in March.
