Like many Japanese fans mentioned, definitely not her fault. I don't like her voice but quite glad to have her in the cast. Mitsuishi can serve a mature voice, like Reina in Detective Conan. Even if they want a different CV for Sailor Cosmos, they can have Miyuu, Anza and other Sailor Moon actresses. And surely some of them can serve that too. So picking Keiko is more like a strategy as she is the most famous one involved in all Sailor Moon projects. btw no wonder she was on a TV show talking about her PGSM Mars a few days ago.
What gets me is that Kitagawa was so famous at one point over here that whenever some SM fan tried to talk to her about that part of her life, she'd shoo them off and tried to avoid talking about it entirely, like it was some embarrassment or something. Its only been since she started hanging out with the old cast again that she started accepting that era of her acting career. Thats why I dont like her.
I get it too. I dont know if itll flop necessarily, because there are a lot of Kitagawa Keiko fans out there, and plenty who remember the live action tv show and her role in it, so fans of that show just might go to see it for that reason. Its hard to gauge whats gonna happen here. Watching the livestream with the announcement, she was horrified to be out there because she knows that Usagi = Mitsuishi, and she knows a lot of fans are probably gonna be pissed. TBH though, its not Kitagawa's fault. It's the production staff's fault for making that decision. If people want to be angry, they need to be angry at THEM not her. Just my 2 cents.
thank you so much

I loved the voice of Sailor Cosmos, it fits; but i see how the fans are complaining, so they might not see the movie, making it flop
