TakaWiki down, VPS problems
TakaWiki is currently (6:35 PM EST Sept. 6, 2022) down. Seems to be a VPS problem with our host. You can follow their updates here: https://www.dreamhoststatus.com/
Also, remember if the TW is ever down, we post updates and info on our ancient LJ community, so it’s a good address to bookmark or save somewhere: https://takawiki-news.livejournal.com/
DONE! As of August 29th, we’ve raised enough money. Thank you all!
It’s that time again! Believe it or not, it’s been over 3 years since we last put out the hat to collect donations.
We're running low once more, so it's time to collect donations to keep us going for 3 more years. Current server fees are $30 a month, so I'd like to collect $1,080, enough to keep us going for 3 more years. Any small amount will help! If each user donates $5, that would get us to our goal!
Once we've hit our goal, the page and the donate button will be taken down. Thank you, all of you, for everything that you do! This fandom truly is amazing and I'm always proud to be a part of it.
Join Jen, Julie, and Kate as they chat about all the news and shows from the past six months! (Woah, has it been a lot….) Let us know what’s been catching your attention and enjoyment i…
A lovely bunch of vintage Takarazuka postcards I was lucky enough to get several months ago. Most are from a 1918 performance, including actresses from the first several classes of Takarazuka actresses. One from a 1927 Snow Troupe show, and one from “Turandot”, performed by a couple of troupes in 1934 with the same main cast. Check the image captions for more info.
"The Tale of Enoshima" (1918): Shinohara Asaji, Kumoi Namiko, and Ogura Miyuki
"Tanabata Dance" (1918): Ooe Fumiko as the Weaver and Takasago Matsuko as Suusei
"Cleopatra" (1918): Shinohara Asaji as Cleopatra, Ogura Miyuki as Charmian, and Takigawa Sueko as Iris
"The Battle Between Monkey and Crab" (1918): Okino Ishiko as Chestnut, Takahama Kikuko as Egg, Ogawa Natsuko as Elephant, Arima Ineko as Monkey, and Takigawa Sueko as Mortar
"Cherry Blossoms on the Way West" (1927 - Snow Troupe): Mikaki Etsuko as a Lady in Waiting
"Turandot" (1934): Sayo Fukuko as Prince Calaf and Kusabue Yoshiko as Princess Turandot
Woah. Issues 1-11 of Kageki magazine, from 1918-1920.
Join Julie, Becca, Carly, Heidi, and Kitty as they discuss the fabulous Takarazuka version of “Anastasia”. (Sorry, the edits on this one are a bit rough due to technical difficulties.) …
Wooo~~ 4 months. Is this a new SLOW record?
Woooow, we recorded this one a long time ago. Back at the beginning of August, to be precise. Please enjoy a slightly dated Kitty and Jen talking about Ueda Keiko’s shows: her themes, the one…
Hi everyone! A newly recorded episode about The Scarlet Pimpernel in Takarazuka. Mostly focused on the Wildhorn versions, but did you know Takarazuka did a version based on the novel in 1979?
Happy New Year, everyone!! Join Julie, Kitty, Jen, and Kate as they talk about what they enjoy about Takarazuka revue shows, their directors, and some of their favorite shows.

Join Kate and Jen as they talk about things and shows from Takarazuka that give them comfort and distraction. Then let us know how Takarazuka has been comforting you over the past few months!
Hi, sorry for the weird question, but I love the Takarazuka podcast and wondered if you know anything about the Wataru show ACHE that she did after leaving? I tried searching for it online but can't find a dvd or anything, yet I've seen gifs online a few times. Do you know if a dvd/video/recording of this exists? Thanks so much! :)
Oh, yeah! It was broadcast on Sky Stage, the Takarazuka TV channel. It gets rebroadcast every once and a while.
Join Jenn, Julie, Kate, and Kitty as they translate and talk about some of the “Messages from the Stars” that the Takarazuka Revue has been posting lately: YouTube Playlist.
Hi all, There was an operating system upgrade to our VPS last night. It was only supposed to take 5 minutes of downtime. We're working on contacting the host company to figure out what happened and how to get the site back up. We'll let you know once we have news.
Reminder to keep an eye on the Takawiki-News LJ when the site’s down.
Lots of 1990s/2000s Takarazuka goodies for sale!
My friend Clo is selling off chunk of her collection. Definitely check it out!
You can see it here on LJ https://takarazuka.livejournal.com/594771.html
Or here on the TakaWiki https://www.takawiki.com/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=3878
Please spread the word!
Thanks to many requests here in the blog, on Tumblr, and on Twitter, we have some quiz games headed your way!
First up: Play along with Lella, Kitty, Jenn, and Julie and test your esoteric Takarazuka revue show theme song knowledge!
