You know that you are living in a Takarazuka musical revue if:
-You are a dark creature in love with a pure, beautiful maiden. One or both of you dies.
-You are a member of some religious order rife with Christian iconography and are seduced by one or more androgynous figures in black and red.
-You and your two best friends are in search of love in a strange land.
-Your all-male gangster club is only *kind of* homoerotic
-You enter a club and one, two, or all three of the following occur:
a) A beautiful, mysterious person appears and seduces you
b) Everyone in the club starts touching you
c) You are fatally kissed
-You are suddenly surrounded by people of indeterminate gender in leotards, feathers, fishnets and little else. This is in no way alarming.
-You are terrible at sports/dancing but are cured by fairies
-Your two lovers duel over you but one of them accidentally kills you
-You are wearing a hot pink tuxedo
- Youre a grizzled soldier. Your life is dance fights and women getting jealous and killing/dying because of you.
- your best friend is going to die
