“I want to make her happy, no matter what harm befalls me.”
Sympathy for the Angel is the first stage play of Mankai Company's newborn Winter Troupe. The play was decided under the theme of the act-off by the God Troupe, angels. Tsuzuru wrote the characters to be similar to the actors' actual personality, however, it is noteworthy to say that Tasuku struggled a bit with his role and subtle lines. Tsumugi also attempted to make things better in the middle of their shows by changing his lines, being discouraged by others comparing him to Tasuku. Due to their low budget, the play was very low-key, ranging from visuals to delivered lines, nevertheless, it was quite fitting in the end. The main lead, Michael, a kind-hearted angel, was played by Tsumugi Tsukioka. The second lead Raphael, Michael's friend was acted by Tasuku Takato.
