[quote name='Tokyograph']Hello! Project artist Erina Mano (18) has been chosen to play a role based on the iconic Sanrio character Hello Kitty in an upcoming theatrical production. This will be Mano's first time acting and starring in a play.



Titled "Koisuru Hello Kitty," the play is described as a "school love comedy" that deals with romance and friendship. The main character is a Hello Kitty doll that turns into a human, portrayed by Mano.



"Koisuru Hello Kitty" will be performed at the Aoyama Round Theatre in Tokyo this November.[/quote]

With humans playing animal characters?



I'm very confused, yet somewhat intrigued.

I foresee this being one of the most annoying things that has ever happened anywhere on earth.

I assume the personified Hello!Project Kitty will be helping others with school romance issues, otherwise things would get weird real fast.



I guess it's good I don't live in Japan, as I'd waste too much money trying to see something so silly.

I'm surprised they hadn't thought of making a humanized Hello Kitty sooner, this is Japan we're talking about. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... stling.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />



I don't really care either way but congrats to Mano.
