I've gotta remember to watch this tonight.

Finally remembered to watch Episode 2 last night....

Got a little confused about who the adult Yoroku and Kiheji were and had to check over at DramaWiki...

Right now, I'm a bit leery about Tsumabuki Satoshi in a jidaigeki...

It's a TV rip of the hardsub that's currently being broadcast, it appears... If I miss an episode, I can always look for this.

It would help if samurai didn't change their names so often...

Thing is, how many Taigas have you seen?

not so many yet, I think. I forgot some titles
but it's very enough for me to say, Tenchijin is good.. both from the story and the cast

Plus! Like I said before, I REALLY like history of Uesugi-clan. Coz it makes me learn about Tokugawa and others too. That's why i like TENCHIJIN best of all! Mochiron, thx to the handsome cast also hihihih

Ma.. tatoeba desu ne.. the most I remembered; YOSHITSUNE (i like Yoshitsune's story!), ATSUHIME, SHINSENGUMI, FUURIN KAZAN (Gackt appears as Uesugi Kenshin here ), MUSASHI.....aarrghh I forgot others! there are names of Sakamoto Ryouma, Toshiie, Houjo, Mouri.... i believe.

Oh yeah ZATOICHI en AZUMI.. can we put this two in taiga category too?!
Even RED SHADOW? hahahha.. I know this one is fantasy, but still it tooks Jidai Era, isn't it?! Wkwkwkkw jodan, jodan

Hmm.. haven't seen the NOBUNAGA and others old-project Taiga coz it's hard for me to find them these days.

So long as you've never seen Yoshitsune, you'll be o.k. That piece of crap could scare you off the genre forever.

Has Masamune appeared in a taiga dorama recently? It would be good if only for the hardware.

Just watched epi 5 and I believe you're correct.

LOL, you're kidding right?

They're hardly Taigas.

** Taigas are always based on real people. **

Man, I just watched Episode 5 and the question I'd really like to ask the director is:

What the heck were Tsumabuki and Kitamura & Takashima and Tamatetsu looking at in the final moments of the episode?

There are the two leads... talking to each other, but both are looking up and to the right, at... I don't know... the Moon? At Abe Hiroshi standing up on his cliff? At the Bat Signal? It was laughable watching these two guys striking heroic poses, gazing up to the heavens, as they delivered their final speeches.

But it became hilarious when in the very next scene Tamatetsu delivered his lines to Takashima while striking a heroic pose and looking up and to his left.

The cherry on top was of course was when mom struck her pose after he left, and delivered her lines to the ceiling.

Oh heck with asking the director questions. I think I'd really like to go and kick him in the shin. Hard.

I was thinking the same thing. It was a pretty good episode up to that point then I'm sitting there thinking, "What the hell was that???"

Aren't those the typical poses you make during a Shakespearean soliloquy?

it's the same pose you'd make in any similar situation, you look up to a higher power. bishomon, buddha, Flying spaghetti monster, Zenu, ancestors, etc.

That doesn't mean much if you're an agnostic or atheist.
