Musical Adaptation of Song “Daughter of Evil” Coming this October
You may be familiar with the Evillious Chronicles, but have you ever seen a rendition of the any of the songs live on stage? Lucky fans will be able to view the production of “Aku no Musume” live this month, and while the title refers to the first of many songs in the series, it seems likely that the show will encompass characters and story aspects from across various titles.
The announcement for the showings was made on amiPro‘s official Twitter account not long ago, and since then, excitement for the opening performance has skyrocketed:
※Translations/transliterations here are all unofficial
※Please note that there may be spoilers to some of the stories/characters from the Evillious Chronicles in the following article. Some hyperlinks have been added throughout to help newer fans understand and get to know some of the characters and story, but if you don’t want to be spoiled, make sure to avoid the hyperlinks and enjoy the series in your own time!
Story
The Princess Riliane, who rules over the Kingdom of Lucifenia, lives in luxury while imposing heavy taxes unto her people, tormenting them with her constant misrule.
Before long, her childish feelings of envy lead to the destruction of the neighbouring kingdom and soon enough, the citizens march – weapons in hand – and surround her palace in response to her wrongdoings!
But what exactly did Allen, the loyal servant that always stood by her side, decide to do then?!
“Just what must I do to get you to turn around?”
This is a story of a dying kingdom and the “bonds” between siblings at the mercy of their destiny.

Hello, may I ask about the details of the online streaming of the musical ? https://akunomusume2021.mixch.tv/
To my knowledge mixchannel can be accessed from overseas, but I can’t confirm for myself right now
Hello, thanks for your question!
If you take a look at our article, you’ll now find a section called “Watch at home” following the information about tickets to the in-person event. Here you can find out how to register and view the performance and archives via Mix Channel. We were able to register successfully and it seems as though overseas fans can indeed buy tickets, although we can’t guarantee it 100%, since we haven’t bought any tickets ourselves. If you choose to buy a ticket, do let us know if you’re successful or not! We hope you’ll be able to enjoy the show!
