Take heart, my ronin, the cavalry's here. Loved the Musashi series. <-That's Matahach over there, my inspiration. I think the Kojiro Sasaki character was already developed as a romantic character previously. My wife was yakking about him long before he appeared in the show. What a guy, indeed. The man made short work of him... _________________ - Douglas

I'm actually watching Musashi all over again! Right now I just finished episode 3. Funny what things you forget in a year's time.

Oooh. I can't wait to do the same. Big Grin

I'm also watching the trilogy from the 1950's. I bought and watched Samurai 1 over this past weekend, then taped Samurai 3 off of one of the pay channels two nights ago. I need to buy Samurai 2 before watching number 3.

Ah, you're talking about the award-winning Samurai Trilogy (If I recall, Miyamoto Musashi was the first film ever to win the Best Foreign Laguage Film Oscar) directed by Inagaki Hiroshi... I've got the LDs of the trilogy and I don't know how many times I've watched it. I hope Criterion releases a restored and remastered version of the trilogy in the near future...

Quote:

Watching the series and the movie, I can see now why some people prefer the movie-version of Otsu over the TV version (Ryoko). Otsu from the 50's looked more like a fragile flower, while Ryoko looked stronger. Supposedly using the book as the foundation to everything (I haven't read it yet), the 50's Otsu is a closer match than Ryoko's version. Nothing against Ryoko -- I guess the director of the TV series had something else in mind.

I sorta agree and disagree. There's no doubt that Yachigusa Kaoru's Otsu was considerably more fragile the Ryoko-chan's Otsu, but both Otsu's were demure, single-minded, and driven to be with Musashi. It might be that Ryoko-chan's supermodel looks overpowered the character she played.

Do you really think so?? Well you know what they say...Americans talk about it all the time and English people just get on with it......

Speaking for myself..... Big Grin

Japanese seem to have a very broad minded view. At least I think so from what I see on jdramas. ? Not so?

Huh? *scratches head*

That's okay. Tell us what you liked or didn't like about the show... Ask any question you want about the show... Someone will answer it, I'm sure... Big Grin

Whoa, another great pic. Hard to believe that this guy also played the goofy, semi-cowardly professor from the Trick series... What an actor. Applaud
