 The Chinese crowd cheered loudly as the curtain on the play was finally being lifted. Yu Takahashi, who plays the role of Sailor Jupiter admitted that she was happy of the fans’ enthusiasm and thanked them and said that the “Chinese people have brought a smile to my face”. Satomi Okubo, who plays Usagi Tsukino/ Sailor Moon meanwhile thanked the people of Shanghai and said that they have made her love Sailor Moon even more.
