DAILY OOOKU: THE INNER CHAMBERS
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.

Though not be entirely accurate, the Imperial Court of feudal Japan is often compared to the Papacy. All Japanese samurai lords, including the Tokugawa clan, were courtiers, at least in name. Thus, some important decisions ultimately required the Emperor's approval. It was this symbolic authority, rather than actual military or economic power, that gave the Imperial Court considerable influence.

This seems kind of strange to ask, but is it cool in modern japan to depict the imperial family without any special respect? Like could you just stick an emperor in oooku and do the same kind of stories as it did with the tokugawa, make him a child molestor or psychopath, etc?

It's okay for historical emperors to be disrespectfully portrayed, although you'd get a lot of outrage for such extreme flaws, especially since there's no official historical source for it (those records have certainly been sanitized.)
I don't think there's actual censorship though.

Historical emperors are fair game. At least far enough back, meaning roughly 100-150 years. The Showa Emperor (Hirohito) is not yet fair game, but his father, the Emperor Taisho, has been fair game for some years now. Though as far as I remember, they still don't acknowledge his weirdness. The man seems to me to have been severely autistic.

Emperor Komei will be a relevant character in the next volumes.

>The Satsuma domain included Nagasaki
Nagasaki was not part of the Satsuma's territory. It was directly ruled by the Tokugawa shogunate. The Satsuma were permitted to conduct their own trade in Nagasaki under the guise of promoting the Ryukyu Kingdom, which was technically their colony. However, it was the illegal trade outside of Nagasaki that brought enormous profits to the Satsuma.

>a hack used before ovens became common
First, I apologize. I misunderstood. Apparently, the awakiri process was developed after the Tokugawa era.
Awakiri is literally a process used to remove bubbles from batter. The method varies from shop to shop. Some bakers do it repeatedly while baking, while others do it just once before putting the batter in the oven. In recipes for home use, it is usually omitted. Some people say it would be reasonable to strain the batter instead.

I'm not sure why they care so much about showing outsiders the shogun is female since they said multiple times that England is a force to be reckoned with despite having a queen.

Washing our hands is one of the most important things we can do to stop the spread of infectious diseases. Germs and viruses are not dangerous as long as we never touch them, even if we cannot kill them. Washing our hands with clean water is good, and using soap makes it even better. We should remember what we saw a few years ago.

If they'd played it better they could have had Japan as a vassal in the 1850s though. If the hegemon is that endangered it should be easy to create a situation where everyone owes depends on you.
I wonder how much good intelligence the European powers had about Japanese power structures or if it was all just brute stupidity. I can't imagine perfidious Albion being that sloppy.

Sakoku and Japan's hermetic social structure did make it hard for outsiders to gather decent intel. Hell, it was impossible for a disgraced senior councillor to even learn that the shogun had died, imagine a half-fluent foreign dignitary under glorified house arrest.

Harris' description of the day of his meeting with Iesada, taken from here: https://archive.org/details/completejournal0harr/page/468/mode/2up

Note that he calls the shogun the "tykoon", which is probably supposed to be "taikun". He was using "ziogoon", but someone told him taikun was the proper name so he changed it.

He doesn't seem to have been all that startled with Iesada's odd behavior, more like he assumed that was just some Japanese custom.

I only skimmed through the bits leading up to his meeting with Iesada for the purposes of this thread, but it looks like an interesting book. I'll have to read more.
