YMMV / Musical Touken Ranbu Hanakage Yureru Tomizu

• Angst? What Angst?: One of the most common criticisms leveled at this play is how little the team seems to care about Ichigo Hitofuri nearly fading from existence after being supplanted as the original sword by his shadow copy Kage. Hasebe is the only one who makes a genuine effort to help him by trying to instill into him the will to save himself, but that's only after spending the majority of the play treating his pretty grave situation as a "wait and see" kind of thing along with the rest of his team.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: While the play Hanakage is okay on its own, the entire plot, which was about Ichigo Hitofuri nearly being erased from existence because a shadow forgery of him was believed to be real over him, could have easily been the plot of a musical starring the Koutetsu brothers and the two Yamanbagiri's, whose stories are largely about reals vs fakes. What's worse is that Yamanbagiri Chougi is actually in this play, but his storyline about being a real sword and having to deal with a copy stealing his shine receives little attention, despite the fact that it would seem more relevant given what his teammate is going through.
• What the Hell, Costuming Department?: Heshikiri Hasebe, like Mikazuki Munechika before him, suffers from the "Light colored contacts vs bright stage lights" issue, which makes his eyes to look creepy when exposed to the light. While this is obviously not noticed by the audience sitting far away from the actors onstage, it is for those watching the productions at home or during photoshoots. Makes you wonder why, by this point, the production team hasn't simply given up on light contacts and made them darker contacts to avoid this, since it’s not like the audience will care about the difference as long as the costuming is otherwise accurate.
