| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Sakarakouji is bothered by Maya's role in Wuthering Heights. More interesting is the fact that this episode does a fantastic job of showing the duality of an actor. Maya becomes the character she is playing. This is interesting because i've heard of real-life actors who actually do or have done that. Meanwhile, Maya's co-star seems to have actually fallen in love with her Catherine. But, probably not Maya herself. Also, the play flopped because the younger actors actually upstaged the older ones, LOL. But, what's this about Maya playing a doll in the next episode? |

I was wondering this, and thinking that... maybe one of the hardest roles to act is one with no lines or actions at all? After all, it's probably going to be difficult to Maya act out "not acting". If that makes any sense at all. It's so sad that Maya's talent is almost forcing her to be shunned by the higher-ups and fellow co-stars... ): But geez, isn't it that director's (or whoever he is) own fault for not watching the play beforehand and noticing that the adult actors couldn't keep up with the kid-versions of their characters? Baahh. Next episode should be interesting. :D And this one was as enjoyable as always~. |
| Ehh why would that chairman say it's Maya's fault the play is a "failure"? If the other cast members couldn't keep up with Maya, find new members. Why should she lower her level? >__> Suddenly, the shy and painfully normal girl has two guys who are in love with her. If you count Masumi then she officially has a harem haha. |

| Maya is awesome, for real! I mean, she was able to make her co-star to fall in love with her, and make Sakurakouji jealous at the same time. Her acting is on another level, makes me smile all the way. She was also able to upstage the older actors, which is a huge deal. But the play flopped because of her, I guess no one can handle her radiance and exuberance. Can't wait to see the joint troupe play, and how Maya will handle a motionless role! |

| Ah, adolescent romance. How fickle and petty, yet naive and sweet it is. I can't say that I wasn't expecting some silly misunderstandings/drama between Maya and Sakurakouji regarding their relationship. I'm more surprised it hasn't happened until now heheh. Intrigued to see if Maya can play the doll. Looking forward to more! |

| Playing a doll she'll learn to be a non-human character, which is required for the Scarlet Angel. Secondly, she'll learn to stay in the sidelines. One of her weaknesses now is that she's trying to shine all on her own. She's quick to react to unexpected situations, but she should learn more acting as a part of an ensemble. In that sense the criticism at the theatre was justified, but it still doesn't make sense that they would abandon her altogether. |
| I just suddenly realized that this might be a reference to Heath Ledger or I'm forcing that comparison because of the name similarities lmao but Headcliff being stuck in the role and unable to get out reminded me of that. I would say this episode was interesting. From one perspective, you can say the adults actors couldn't keep up therefore, it should be their fault. On another, it means Maya took too much creative liberty and made the role too intense that ruined the harmony of the overall play with the extra ad-libs she did. And in this case,she does have some faults because she isn't thinking of the flow of the story but rather the character. All in all, she still have room to grow. She is not fit for supportive roles. Supportive roles shouldn't outshine the main leads but the main leads are allowed to outshine everyone else which is why Maya is main lead material. I really like this episode. It's all about perspective. I enjoyed how Hayami noticed she acted like Heathclif was her favorite. To some, that was "love" to others that was "possession". It gave the play a toxic relationship element despite not intending it. |
