I want to defeat Mazeppa

I am watching a drama called 'Gunjou Ryouiki' (Indigo Area) on U-NEXT.
I started watching it without knowing much about it, but
Juni: Shim Eun-kyung
Haruki: Hayato Kakizawa ← Him again! Haha
Ren: Ryuya Wakaba
I was surprised by this combination. Wait, a Korean actress, a stage actor, and a film actor all in one cast!? And the script is by Roba Shimori, who became a hot topic for 'Oue-sensei'. This person also wrote 'The Journalist', a film that also features Shim Eun-kyung. Wow.

Hayato Kakizawa appears in my notes from time to time, but setting that reason aside,
perhaps Hayato Kakizawa possesses elements similar to Haruki Kasai. In the first episode, Juni said, "Loneliness." I, Shibata, feel that Kakizawa is quite similar to him internally; it's like looking in a mirror. Maybe that's why I somehow understand. It's very heart-wrenching.
Even though the title is 'Gunjou Ryouiki', it's actually 'Indigo AREA'!? I got goosebumps... Indigo is, in Japanese, 'ai-iro' (indigo blue). Ai. Like Aizawa. From Code Blue. ← This one is definitely a "Him again!" haha
Oh, 'Indigo AREA' is the name of the band that Juni, Haruki, and the others are in.

Now, as for what 'Gunjou Ryouiki' is about,
I haven't finished watching it yet, so while I assume from the next episode's preview that Haruki will be the one struggling mentally,
it was Juni who struggled first, and the cause was...

Haruki: "That's enough of that! I'm sick of it!
I can fly. Even without your piano.
Did you notice? You said it was for my sake, but it wasn't. You played in a way that cornered me, drowning in the sound until I couldn't breathe. That's because you were playing for yourself."
Juni: "No,"
Haruki: "Don't tell me it's not true. You were playing for yourself. 'I have this technique.' 'I am different.' 'Let me play.' And then, at the end of the part, you finally let me in. It was the same last time. That's how you look at me. Hey, do you understand? How miserable I feel at times like that."
Juni: "Haruki, Haruki,"
Haruki: "Ego is fine. Everyone has an ego. Especially those who do music. If so, just admit that you have an ego!
Huh? You're playing for my sake? Don't say things like a hypocrite."
Juni: "No, that's wrong. That's wrong. I, I really"
Haruki: "If I, the one who matters, don't feel that way, then it's meaningless."

From Episode 1

If I say this, Haruki might hate me, but regarding the 'Fantaisie-Impromptu' that Juni performed on the day she first met the Indigo members... This is... not exactly transcendental technique. Haha
(However, the passages are very fast and by no means easy... so I think they used it because it's perfect for making it look like transcendental technique.)

True transcendental technique is even more insane.

In the movie 'Goodbye Debussy', Shinya Kiyozuka, a manzai comedian (a manzai comedian?), appears as Yosuke Misaki.
Yosuke Misaki played 'Mazeppa' with ease.

Do you remember?
Last year, in the final episode of Black Pean 2, Marasy's 'A Little Stronger Mazeppa' was used as background music. That's it. That's the version without arrangements.
It's impossibly difficult, so it's impossible for an actor to practice desperately and be able to play it. A pianist has to play it for them, and the footage of the hands has to be replaced... that kind of editing is absolutely necessary. However, since a pianist is acting rather than an actor, he can play it himself. I accidentally called him a manzai comedian because he's so good at talking, but he's genuinely amazing, and my eyes went wide.
Ai Hashimoto doesn't play, but she shines visually enough with her acting ability. In other words,
Emotional impact of the visuals → Ai Hashimoto
Reality of the piano → Mr. Kiyozuka
They divided the roles like this to make a movie that uses the piano as a subject matter.

I thought to myself.
Is there any actor who can pull off playing Mazeppa themselves? It seems there isn't.
Should I do it~
It's not something to say lightly, but I am practicing, after all. I want to perform Transcendental Etude No. 4, Mazeppa, without a substitute.
