Sayaka Akimoto as "Blind Saint Maria Clara" in Sherlock Holmes 2: Bloody Game

What kind of surprised me that while Sayaka Akimoto plays the character Blind Saint Maria, the character is also known as Maria Clara, a character originally created by Jose Rizal.  And to be honest, as if the whole Josie Rizal character wasn't enough to shock me, we have Sherlock Holmes having a character named Maria Clara... and Sayaka Akimoto is way too obvious to be half-Filipino at the same time.  Pictures were taken from here.

Looks like the character is really blind...

Wow I got to admit the timeless emotion here...

Singing scene anyone?  I do admit I love her singing.

Picture taking with the cast...
