As many of you may have noticed, these days lots of stages are legally posted on streaming sites so people can forget a bit about what’s going on outside and enjoy the time spent indoors. It’s really interesting to follow not only the 2.5D stages, but other stages as well.
My friend @amyntaschoice intorduces me to Richard III. As written on the poster, Richard III is “A remote reading experiment plan made by home waiting actors“. The 7th Generation Laboratory is a unit project operated by volunteer members of Saitama Next Theater. This time, their work is based on the concept of William Shakespeare’s “Richard III,” where actors waiting at home read together for a theater-like performance.
I have to admit that I was skeptical about this kind of performance, and I started watching it only for a single actor, but now I’m in love with the performance and all the actors. They have all my appreciation and respect!
The performance is divided on Scenes that are about 15 miuntes long. The videos are uploaded on the 7th Generation Laboratory YouTube channel every Monday at 10pm Japan time. You can also find them on Twitter. So far we have 5 Scenes:
Scene 1 - A villain’s declaration
Scene 2 - The wedding in front of the coffin
Scene 3 - Dream that comes true
Scene 4 - Premonition
Scene 5 - Sick kingdom
Scene 6 - If
Scene 7 - Two men performance
Scene 8 - Nephew killing
Scene 9 – The last ace up his sleeve
Scene 10 - Light
Scene 11 (Last Scene) - THE DARK HERO
I love the series so much that I decided to make the subs for them. You can find the subtitles for all Scenes here. As the series will continue, I’ll continue to sub the Scenes as well.
Give the series a chance and support the actors in these hard time, even if it’s just a view or two, a like and a share, so they could see that their work is being appreciated. Here are a few of the actors that take part in this project:
Uchida Kenshi – Lord Gloucester/future King Richard III
Shumoto Erika – Queen Elizabeth
Sugiura Keisuke – Kind Edward IV
Miyazaki Shuto – Lord Buckingham
Doi Keito – Queen Margaret
Ayano Durniok – Duchess of York
Aoyagi Takaya – Lord Rivers
Bonus: They posted some NG video and they are hilarious. Althoug, thanks to the questions they received about the songs they used and BGM, they made a playlist with it. The songs are amazing, so if you have time, just listen a few of them. You will find the links to all the videos below,

Today is about Completion, Satisfaction, and Growth
Tarot of the Day: The World
The World is an indicator of inexorable change; change that is predestined and initiated by the successful end to this cycle of your life.
It is a good end to the old and a desirable beginning to the new. It speaks of growing maturity, inner balance, and a deeper understanding that has you well prepared to move forward so do not give up now. You are getting closer to who you really are at the deepest levels so take a breath, get to the finish line, and then you can let go.
The World says you are about to begin a successful voyage or emigration - a change of place. Whether literally or spiritually, this journey was earned through hard work and will be a life changing event.
Look to all areas of your life today and see where things have grown stagnant and end the cycle. Are you working harder for less recognition? Then it's time to blow your own horn a little.
Have you and your partner solved a large problem or passed a relationship milestone? Acknowledge it for what you learned and move forward.
The World signifies certainty, rewards, and the potential to fulfil your desires so take a deep breath and enjoy the path.
News, Honesty, Mental Agility
Tarot of the Day: Page of Swords
Each suit has its Page; its news bringer, and this one brings formal or official news of change.
While the changes could prove to be challenging, this card shows issues being settled and detritus removed from your life.
This Page wants you to rely on the person in your life with strong analytical skills and an energetic nature. This person has an incredible capacity for cutting to the core of issues with a ruthless accuracy and, therefore, makes an excellent negotiator. Whether this is you or a person you know, the situation calls for their skills.
She may be telling you that there are small changes happening in your relationship that are causing problems. Try to analyse the situation and then restate your case with less emotion
In business and finance the message refers to humility. You, like the Page, may be approaching a situation with the appearance of knowing all there is to know. Remember that although you know all the facts you may not know all the details; ask if there is more to know and the others involved will appreciate your humble approach
Prepare yourself to make many important decisions quickly.
Trust in your 'inner' Page of Swords and you will successfully navigate the situation.
