 Posted: Sun Jan 21, 2007 2:02 pm Post subject: Furin Kazan - 2007 Taiga Drama |
  |
|
Starts in SoCal on 2/10/2007....
Official web site: http://www.nhk.or.jp/taiga/
From Wikipedia:
The title is a reference to the war banner used by Takeda Shingen, which in turn was taken from Sun Tzu's The Art of War. It means "Swift as the Wind, Silent as a Forest, Fierce as Fire and Immovable as a Mountain."
Like many of the previous Taiga dramas, Fūrin Kazan will deal with the Sengoku period. Based on Yasushi Inoue's novel by the same title, it depicts the life of Yamamoto Kansuke who is known as one of Takeda Shingen's legendary strategists.
Cast:
* Yamamoto Kansuke: Masaaki Uchino
* Takeda Shingen: Kamejirō Ichikawa
* Princess Yū: Yuki Shibamoto
* Uesugi Kenshin: Gackt
* Mitsu: Shihori Kanjiya

Quote of the day, people. 
Even in a drama from the Sengoku period, he seems to be portrayed as androgynous.  
| Quote: | | i may not even bother watching this one. |
Looks on the bright side: if he's a baddie, maybe the guy with the eye patch gets to slice him like a Honeybaked ham.

Needless to say, Blekt looked out of place: most/all of the samurai looked tough and battle-weary, while Blekt looked like a geisha in samurai drag. |
A cross-dressing geisha, or nurtured samurai?

The historical travelogue at the and of the show was a nice touch.  |
Yeah, I liked that as well. They did those at the end of every episode of Shinsengumi but I was disappointed that they didn't do it for Kyoumei ga Tsuji

They did it for Musashi as well, but there were no subs.

Did they show the whole first episode down in your neighborhood?
Up here they always cut the first and last episodes in half.
The first week they got to the 30 minute mark (sans commercials), just when the Takeda were digging their tiger pit ambush for the Hojo, and stopped. Then last night they picked it up and showed the rest of episode #1 which times out at a full hour of video. |
From your description, we got the same edit on the show.
