Special Talk Show with Mimori Suzuko at Bushi Cafe
The crowd was already buzzing with excitement long before Mimori-san's appearance, with the queue extending to the establishment next to Bushi Cafe when I arrived. Imagine their response the moment she walked onto the stage. The fans' energy was infectious and they gamely responded from the moment she introduced herself, the characters of the film plus a brief summary of what the Tantei Opera Milky Holmes franchise was about. Of course, there was the usual discussion regarding what she liked about Singapore, what her favourite Singaporean food was (It's Hokkien Mee by the way) and what she did when she arrived (Shopping, shopping and more shopping at Bugis+ and Bugis Junction).
Next up was a quiz involving a series of True or False questions. The winner would walk away with an autographed poster of the movie and a goodie bag. To say that Mimori-san's fans were dedicated would be a severe understatement and the quiz had to end up with questions that demanded lucky guesses rather than any actual knowledge for fear of the game not ending even by the time the movie started screening. Several of these include what she ate for lunch the previous day and the number of clothes and shoes she bought.
The audience's energy was infectious and there were no awkward silences or pauses at any moment during the talk show. Unfortunately, the session had to end and what was 45 minutes long felt more like 15 instead but fans will be delighted to know that Mimori-san plans to visit Singapore again next year. To everyone's delight, the talk show ended off with a selfie and a reminder that they'll get to see her again during the movie later on. I thoroughly enjoyed the talk show although I had no knowledge of the Tantei Opera Milky Holmes franchise and I'm sure everyone would've liked a short Q&A session too.
