Something to think about:

Eumolpus [...] commenced a series of gibes at women's frailty [...]
asserting there wasn't yet a woman so chaste she might not be wrought
to the wildest excesses by a lawless passion...

There are women fancy muck, whose passions are stirred only at
the sight of slaves or runner boys with bare legs. Others are hot
after gladiators, or dusty muleteers, or actors swaggering on the
boards. This is the sort my mistress is: she jumps clean over the
fourteen rows from orchestra to gallery, to seek her choice among
the rabble of the back benches...

Tastes differ 'tis as chance disposes;
Some like thorns, and some like roses.


---Petronius (Satyricon)


Personally I don't think Ikuchan might be like that. But who knows.

Woah! Even Ikuchan is better than the "Orthodox idol" in many ways. She is in another league!

Only one pic of her doing ballet I've found so far...

http://taobaofreak.com/1377.html

For the costume and porte de bras, it could be either Giselle (1st act variation) or Coppelia (Swanhilda's entrance). I'm inclined to believe it's the second one because Giselle variations are far beyond the reach of a pubescent girl. Anyway, apart from being always the one with the first or second best grades in her school, that page tells us about her old schedule before entering Nogi, which used to be like this:

> Monday - Maths
> Tuesday - Ballet
> Wednesday - Calligraphy
> Thursday - English
> Friday - Piano
> Saturday - Piano
> Sunday - Ballet

It sounds impressive alright but, truth to be told, it's also revealing of a fair amount of posery. Maybe she could pull out becoming a piano concertist with only 2 days of weekly practice because she had this huge talent for it, but no one, not even someone with an insane talent (like Daniil Simkin level of insane talent), can afford not taking at least one daily class and expect to have a future in ballet at all. For anyone older than, say, 10 years old, only 2 days a week of ballet lessons is a joke.

Don't get me wrong: I like and admire Ikuchan very very much. But now it seems obvious to me that her public image of prodigy child could have been considerably inflated, if not by lies, at least by convenient omissions.

[Pic from Ikuta Erika Mobame, February 3, 2015 (11:32)]

Quand elle dit: "Il fait beau", rien d'autre... a quoi elle pense? D'elle je n'ai que cette apparence disant: "Il fait beau", rien d'autre. A quoi bon expliquer ça? Nous sommes faits de rêves et les rêves sont faits de nous. Il fait beau, mon amour, dans les rêves, les mots et la mort. Il fait beau mon amour. Il fait beau dans la vie.

In case you were wondering about what was Ikuchan doing there and all it demands:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mGfXaZSMTY

Ikuchan resumed it very pragmatically by just exposing the theme, repeating it halfway and then jumping directly to the coda and finale. Effective. Smashing.

Ikuchan is Nogi's scapegoat: her huge talent is sacrificed every time so the high class idol project can live on.

I think she's profiting from the chance that her youth and the current situation has given to her (and she enjoys alright the comparatively light-hearted world of idols), but she realizes that in the end her life is tied to piano above all things. It's a life-long affair.

You know? I thought that, without being Glenn Gould or anything, I could at least believe in her pianistic talent.

However, there are several other girls who can play really well (Madoka, Sakiko, Aya,...) and no one gives a shit: it's only Ikuta who's made a big deal about for it, once again inflating her smart ojou character.

I'll let you know that, in the context of further studying "L'Eve Future", I've read about the very origins of hypnosis in the context of XIX century's clinical treatment of hysteria (specially about Jean-Martin Charcot's work at the Salpêtrière)... and it's always been a pile of shit: nothing but theatricality all along.

I guess the deceive is part of the charm, just like with magic tricks; but I just don't dig that, it's too dishonest. Anyway, her antics at the rest of the episode were great.
