Big balls on them to put so much money behind a show mainly spoken in Japanese. While not Japanese myself, I felt that they got a really good grasp of the etiquette and veiled, subtext laden dialogue of the culture. I hope we get more like it in the future. EDIT: Holy shit I thought this was just a miniseries! I didn't realize it had been picked up for two more seasons! |
It's soooooo good. Just a pity we don't get the battle until next season. Still, it tugged at the heart strings and brought out the historical japanese cultural love I have on me, I nearly cried when Blackthorn was going to commit seppuku for the village and I don't even know what you call the emotion I was feeling.
