Synopsis

Kasutoyo (I'll try to avoid mentioning too much or else I'd run the risk of spoiling the whole story) lived during the end of the Sengoku period (1546-1605). He was the first feudal lord of the fief of Tosa on the island of Shikoku. He served Nobunaga Oda, Hideyoshi Toyotomi and Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Chiyo (1557-1617) was his wife, and was known in history for her dedication and devotion to her husband (like Matsu was to Toshiie in Toshiie to Matsu).

This is an awsome Taiga drama. The casting and acting are superb. There's definitely awesome chemistry between Kamikawa and Nakama. It's a love story, adventure loaded and interesting sub plots type of drama. Highly recommend it and very entertaining in my book.

This was my favorite taiga drama since Musashi. I could not imagine anyone playing the part of Chiyo better than Yukie Nakama. When I heard the story was not going to center around a super famous character I was concerned but I have been surprised by a great story with tons of interesting characters living in extraordinarily turbulent times. I have also seen the title translated as Komyo Ga Tsuji which means distinguished.
