Costumes look good. I'll admit the actress would make a good Mitsuru Kirijo if they did a Persona 3 stage play.

I wonder how they plan to handle her "Requip" magic on stage?

I mean with the others I can see some pyrotechnics or effects working, but Erza changes her entire outfit nearly instantly, that would require some crazy costume design and/or magic tricks.

If the costume were actually an armor suit, she would have difficulty moving freely due to the stiffness and added weight of the outfit.

breasts size aside,Lucy also looks gorgeous (then again,they would need to cast Hitomi Tanaka for her to be more accurate on the chest area...)

I was on the verge of dropping the series as well, but I decided to stick it out since spoiler[the alvarez war stuff has been mildly interesting]

The narrative just doesn't have the quality to me that it once had. The fandom has almost completely devolved into worrying about pairings and ships then how the actually story is going from what I've seen.

That's just me though. i really can't speak for anyone else.

If it was metal then she would have trouble moving around.

I like the other actor's looks, but Minami just doesn't feel like Erza to me. I'm guessing it's the less youthful look and the dirtier appearance.

As for the armor not being maneuverable, really depends on their actions in the play. But someone made Erza's Sword and Armor Breastplate for real. You tell me if it's not maneuverable enough.

Just needs lots of padding. Dunno what's preventing them

Does anyone know where I can find any images on whoever Hitomi Tanaka is? I can't seem to find her anywhere on Google.

But yeah. They could go for more accurate breast size for the character of Lucy Heartfilia. The same goes for Erza Scarlet.
