To be honest the only parts I liked of this drama were the Princess Minhwa/Yeom scenes. I though they had the most interesting story.

Many thanks for OST 2.!! My favorite track is nº2 from OST 1 though. It gets so beautiful towards the end with the piano.

If there is something that doesn't disappoint in this taiga is the cinematography. The scene with Hydeoshi and all the sakura petals flying inside was beautiful! Also If Gracia had her name given to her by a Portuguese missionary, I'm pretty sure it should be Graça. So they would be calling her Gara...

Supposedly, colonies preserve the speech pattern of the mother country at the time of colonization, so, if that is really true, Brazilian Portuguese is actually closer to what the friars would have spoken than what someone from Portugal nowadays speaks. But, like you said, we non-Portuguese speaker...

Also it's funny that it was a Brasilian playing the part of a Portuguese missionary. It sounded really awkward listening to Brasilian Portuguese, but I suppose foreigners can't really tell the difference. Still, pretty weird and even funny since Portugal had discovered Brasil only 80 years earlier ...

Finally watched episode 3! I'm glad we get to know more about Oda Nobunaga. He is such an interesting historical figure. Also it's funny that it was a Brasilian playing the part of a Portuguese missionary. It sounded really awkward listening to Brasilian Portuguese, but I suppose foreigners can't re...

It's official, I'm in love with Toyokawa Etsushi's Oda Nobunaga. What a voice and what a presence!

I first recognized the voice, because he was a voice actor for the game "Lost Odyssey", haha!

Watched Episode 1 again with subs this time... Really strong, well-acted opening act forthe series. :thumright: I thought the little girl who played the young Chacha looked like a five-year old Ayase Haruka... :mrgreen: Agreed with you.A great opener.Its been long since i watch any taiga(Yoshitsune...

I wonder if anyone will be willing to sub this drama? I've watched it until episode 4 and it was one of the best J-Dramas in years.

If someone picks this up I'd like to thank them in advance!

Izumisano and Luna14 are still subbing Ryomaden together. It's been wonderful to see a Taiga drama with good video quality. I'm obviously going to watch Gou, even if it's just a TV cap, but one can dream that someone will subtitle the drama. The story looks super interesting and I can't wait to watc...

I'm watching this mostly for Miura. I mean it's like two different people, it's amazing. Of course i can't get enough of samurai Kotarou.

I wonder if Miura knows any kendo? His movements look so graceful.

JIN is a very engaging drama so far!! if you're into dramas like these, you should try dae jang geum, damo, and hong gil dong as well

Indeed, i watched all of these and they are wonderful. Especially Damo!

I wasn't expecting much from the drama because i usually don't like cops series, and as i expected i didn't like it.

Oguri Shun is still a fantastic actor in whatever role he takes.

I'm really loving this drama, especially Uchino Masaaki's Sakamoto Ryoma! I also think that the guy who had formaline-kun in his head is actually Jin. I wonder if in the end all of these happenings in the Edo period aren't in Jin's head because he actually has a brain tumor. If you notice on episode...
