The flowers do not actually sing

[aimeekitty]

My book, Japan Ai: A tall girl's adventures in Japan, is coming out this December from Go! Comi ( http://gocomi.com/ )

Part of the book is about going to Takarazuka Town, which is the home of the all female revue troup, Takarazuka. (Which is basically, girly girly musicals + vegas. It's awesome.)
The town is filled with nothing but flower shops, jewelry stores, tea shops and of course places to buy pictures of your favorite Takarazuka star.

In the card, the statue is of Oscar and Andre from Rose of Versailles (which was made into one of the most popular Takarazuka musicals. ANGST! LOVE! DEATH!) Yes, the statue actually exists there.

This is one of the images that was made into postcards to hand out at Anime Expo and Comic-Con this year.

OK, that's it! I'm buying the book. But when I get it I'm going to rush to that page and put liquid paper or something on the little note that says "The flowers in Takarazuka do not sing"
