**WARNING! The following post may contain extremely incoherent and illogical ramblings.
I couldn't hold back anymore. After multiple checkings on the status of my parcel and realizing it's nowhere near my country, I turned to YT for aid. My prayers were answered and someone (who deserve a whole truckload of thanks btw) put up a few clips from the musical!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While standing up, she placed her right hand on Ai's dress / hip (?). I wondered if she was gonna to rip off Ai's outfit. Now that would be an amazing scene :D I have to give Gaki-san props for pulling off the whole boyish / manly feel. I thought her hand movements were very good in portraying this.
Here comes the climax, the long-awaited hugging scene!! Are there more? I have no idea but this one already made me all giddy and high. I LOVED how Risa's fingers kinda pawed (I apologize for the lack of a better descriptive word) Ai's shoulder. The part where they broke apart slowly? I totally died. And the way Ai looked at Risa? I'm being laid to rest in a cemetery. XD
Their scary eye make-up kinda killed the moment for me but oh heck it, the entire part before was too good and made up for everything. I was going "WTH?" at Risa patting Ai's head :D I get the feeling that wasn't in the original script but Gaki-san forgot and did something she usually did to Ai. I'm sure I've seen her pat Ai's head like that somewhere before.
One thing that left me scratching my head was, how could Risa be chubby with all the stress that came along with the staging of this musical? Her face was like a little round ball especially in this clip :P Oooooh I HEART Risa's acting from 1 min 34 sec - 1 min 39 sec. She channeled the dejected, hopless and forlorn look so well! 1 min 57 sec, when they took each other's hand but had to let go after a while? I don't know why but I'm so fond of that scene. Risa joining in when Ai sang = BEAUTIFUL. I'm left speechless.
I wish I could see the rehearsal where they are dressed in their own clothes. Unfortunately UFA decided to make this a 2 disc instead of 3 disc product. ARGH, why didn't Risa kiss Ai's hand for real at the end? She only faked kissed her *pouts*
Finally I hit the jackpot! Risa flashed past. And when I say flashed, I mean flashed. It was a blink and you'll miss moment. I couldn't tear my eyes away from her after I determined her position. I was super engrossed in being captivated by how mesmerizing she was. That was until the appearance of Ai and her shocking hairdo XD
HOLY SHIZZLE GAKI-SAN!!!!!!!!!
Risa danced so well I think I started to get goosebumps at this point. Even if a fire was raging outside my door, I wouldn't leave the monitor till I finished watching her.
Eri looked...cute? It wasn't exactly the image I was hoping for since I like hawt Eri. But still she didn't disappoint. Did Sayumi's dancing improve? She sure had some nice moves. When Risa flicked her head at 1 min 24 sec? My head rolled off together with that move onto the floor. Hmmmm apparently Risa's abs aren't as gorgeous as they usually are nevertheless she's still incredibly hawt. Her Halloween eye liner and shadow didn't seem so bad now :P
*Sigh* I wanna see the talk portion at the end. I heard from a very reliable source (stefy) that when saying their Thank Yous, Eri made a mistake and Risa turned to make fun of her. She even snaked her arm almost around Eri's waist! Stefy even went as far to say that and I quote,"Gaki was like so sweet to her (Eri) and left Ai to one side. Gaki's a play girl!" This comment made me wanna see the musical even more. Hurry up and arrive my greatly beloved DVD, I can't survive another day without seeing you! *Boo Hoo Hoo*
