ABOUT
Viara
The pen name “Viara” comes from the Latin word via meaning “path” or “way,” and carries the sense of “one who walks the path.”
For me, that “path” represents life itself.
I first encountered the Takarazuka Revue in my mid-teens, and for more than forty relaxed years since, I’ve lived as a devoted fan.
Takarazuka is the one passion that has continued unbroken throughout my life.
Until the very end of my days, I wish to keep writing about this unchanging love for Takarazuka.
