We'll try our best to keep this page updated with everything Love Never Dies related, although the language is a small handicap for us as we do not speak, write nor understand a word in Japanese. So, from now on, we apologize if translations are not 100% literal, or if we misunderstand or misspell details or names regarding this production. If you understand Japanese or do you have any news about the production that we missed... feel free to share!
