FEUDAL JAPAN MANGA IS BACK ON THE BOARD

>In Edo period Japan (1603 to 1868), a strange new disease called the Redface Pox has begun to prey on the country's men. Within eighty years of the first outbreak, the male population has fallen to a quarter of the total female population. Women have taken on all the roles traditionally granted to men, even that of the Shogun. The men, precious providers of life, are carefully protected and the most beautiful of the men are sent to serve in the Shogun's Inner Chambers.

>consort Shige had to lie to survive and avenge their son because Ienari was such a wet noodle his mother had no fear of reprisal
>worse he was willing to eat poison if his murderous mother asked him to, even knowing her true character and what she did to many of his children
>the redpox cure only happened because Shige and the other concubine deceived him for years so they could poison Harasada
>because he was too weak and unreliable to stop her
>had Harusada suspected the truth she would have poisoned them all
>he’s still mad at Shige for lying and saving his life and allowing him to achieve his dream

He looks like Arikoto

>Was offline week and missed the opportunity to make Livia Soprano jokes about Harasuda.
Frankly, I'm depressed and ashamed.
Great chapters though, can't believe we have come so far. It feels like just yesterday we were mourning Ejima.

Japan is brutal

>>280348605
It’s Japan, she expected her to take it and let her do what she wants. Just like in boss NTR JAVs.

>>280348629
Fucking coward, maybe Harasuda was right.

>>280348629
Someone left a sword outside and this poor man slipped and fell on it,

I'll play devil advocate and say that he only mention this to keep up the play.
Still, fuck him. Everything went wrong because of his weakness.

Now that's some work drama

>>280347112
very slapstick timing on the final panel

>>280347763
the manga has to join up back to the real timeline given the secret history conceit so you have to have some kind of source of misogyny

Thank you for posting.

Can't believe we've already reached the last generation...

Is it crossdressing if the clothes were made for men in the first place?

>>280370047
This makes a lot of sense actually

>>280370083
he would have made a good teacher indeed

Can someone give me a qrd on the story so far? I've missed the threads since that one handsome guy became a monk after fucking the secretary? of his liege hag.

>>280370266
>their anuses get more rigid and tight as well
is that so...

>>280370515
its been more than 9 generations of shoguns, the red pox has been vaccinated, and the americans arrived to japan

>>280370515
and the bakumatsu is almost starting

>>280370681
What the fuck. Guess I'll have to go back to the previous chapters.

>>280371012
Seriously, it was quite inconceivable that Qing would get defeated by a country a fraction of its size on the other side of the world. When Nobunaga and Hideyoshi dreamed of invading the mainland everyone thought them lunatics, and they were, but Europeans achieved that dream so easily.

>>280371251
That's smart.

>>280371295
>smuggling women in chests
lmao it actually happened, probably because of the tale of the Ejima affair gave them ideas too

>>280371663
"quietly"

>>280371663
so much corruption happens because subordinates wilt in front of "do you know who I am?!" when in fact they only need to grow a spine and just do their job to uncover everything

>>280371750
I mean the reason it doesn't work here is because the shogun that gave invoking o-miyo power is dead. They just kept trying to cash his checks

ovaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

>>280371984
Well, that did work...until Japan got into a fight it really couldn't win

True ambition is not high hopes, but high expectations.

>>280370681
Early start of the Abe mentality.

>>280371012
Why does Britain always have to come in and ruin everything for everyone? Everything wrong in every historical manga post 1600 can be traced back to the Brits.

The juxtaposition of curing the red pox with the last 50 or so years of the tokugawa is kinda weak. The main thing that was wrong with the late tokugawa was poverty and curing the red pox would have been a world historical economic shot in the arm.

>>280347763
Since he now recognizes Harusada was a monster, I wonder if part of it is shame over his weakness. He can't bring himself to admit he was the reason everything was so close to failure, so he blames Shige instead.

It's a loser mindset, but Ienari's never been anything but a loser

>>280372069
>When you realise it wasn't a LARP after all
Must have given him the freight of his life.

>>280384632
Yeah, Ienari knows that he's less trustworthy than any woman. Harusada, evil that she was, could at least rely on herself. He was ready to betray not only his children, his wife, and his country at mommy's behest, but even himself. Ienari said it was his fate to die that time, and in a sense he did. It broke him as a person. His grouchy, domineering attitude and blaming of the entire female sex for his own flaws were his way of deflecting his pathetic weakness.

I guess I won't feel bad about Perry wiping his ass with Japan since the shogun is a child molestor

The shoujo tropes are strong with this one.

>>280370266
This is bullshit by the way. Real Kagema worked into their twenties and sometimes thirties if they looked youthful and feminine enough.
Not surprised that nip fags came up with justifications why their indentured male prostitutes had to be underage.

>>280392193
I know, right? It's about to go horribly wrong...

>>280392193
I mean, just based on the tokugawa countdown I'm not expecting any more high points within a few orders of magnitude as curing red pox

Yes, they are all based. It's peak human look, afterall.

Thx mate.

>>280409254
That's not how it usually works, genes affect the growth of men and women differently. The specifics are complicated but in most cases men end looking like their male antecedents and women like their female ones. When a boy takes from his mothers side, he usually resembles his maternal uncles/grandfather. When a boy resembles his mother or a girl her father it is usually because that whole family line has weak dimorphism where everyone looks half ogre half femme.

Ready to apologize now?

>>280407995
>blushing while praising her dexterity
Hmmm...

>>280412000
Apparently Jap weight units were standardized in the 17th century and producing measurement weights was the monopoly of a single family, so it doesn't seem like it depended on anything external.

>>280412836
Which family?

>>280412836
>producing measurement weights was the monopoly of a single family
imagine all the plots and assassinations required to keep this prestigious title

>>280413760
>In 1665, the Japanese weight units were standardized, and thereafter, Shirobei GOTO and his descendants monopolized the right to produce counterweights used at an exchange house, and the production and use of other kinds of counterweights were prohibited strictly for the prevention of illegal exchange.

>>280407182
I looked up how to make castellas because of this comic and she is absolutly right here, even with modern tools they're a huge pain in this ass. I stopped considering it when I saw the awakiri. (You open the oven and stir the baking batter multiple times during baking)

Totally gonna eat one when I make it back to Japan, though

>>280411641
I never hated you bitch shogun

>>280411641
I was always willing to forgive her and her DSLs

>>280408651
Yoshimune died with the knowledge that her sweet and gentle sister (and many other people) was murdered by her best friend just to allow her to become the shogun. It must have been terrible for someone with her character.
At least she never knew she was Harusada's inspiration.

>>280414388
I don't think you have to do that. it's probably just some hack to make sure people that don't have any baking experience can cook something evenly. It's just a pretty basic cake.

>>280413938
>Bocchi-chan in charge of weight standards
Oh no.

>>280416607
Would Yoshimune have the huts to dispose of Harusada if she somehow knew what she would become and all the hell she'd bring?

Bump

>>280411641
Don't need it. I never doubted her once.

Bump

>>280417172
Did she ever run into that kind of evil? I think she just wouldn't believe it could be real until there was incontrovertible evidence.

Savin gozaru

Honored O-anons, I started reading during Harusada's rise so I went back to the beginning but I have a question. Why did he become like this? Did he learn nothing of Sir Arikoto's noble heart?

Bump

>>280414388
>stir the baking batter multiple times during baking
As another anon says, this seemed to be a hack used before ovens became common in Japan. There was also a way to put the fire on top of the pan.
>>280416802
>It's just a pretty basic cake.
Portuguese pão de ló, or Spanish bizcocho, is thought to be the origin of Japanese castella.

>>280346563

Euros your turn

how do you pronounce oOOOOooku, anons?

>>280428752
Oh-o-ku I think, just repeating the first part, mostly

>>280421361
he really hated the other concubine I forgot the name of, so if his daughter didn't have an heir, the other concubine's daughter would rise to power

>>280428752
Oo (Long o) = many
Oku = wives

>>280346665
It's a shame just how many characters are missing from these.
>>280421361
>Did he learn nothing of Sir Arikoto's noble heart
Pretty much. He admired Arikoto but could never be like him, and knew it. So Gyokuei applied himself in service of the one person he looked up to. With his master gone, Gyokuei was left to his own devices, and his more worldly desires took root.

>>280408607

I understand everything now. that's a pain in the ass to make.

>>280429090
>>280429930
isn't Ō pronounced as Ou?

>>280439765
Ou and Oo are both long o verbal wise. The word itself is 大奥, which is Oo

>>280429930
Oku is really "inside", "inner"
sort of like "the holy of holies", the "innermost place" if you will
Oku-san also means "wife" because she's the person who stays inside the house you see

What an outfit. This rivals Tanuma's gaudy floral gradients. Great designs all round this chapter. It's so cool that each time the scene changes to a different day the major characters have actually changed into different clothing. But different characters each have their own style with repeated motifs. Ieypshi's murky patterns were really fitting. Don't think Ive ever seen anything put more effort into character design than this manga.

And of course, the classic returns.
