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.
Iemochi is going to be daijobu...right?
>>280932725It's more over than we ever could have possibly expected
Amazing fucking outfit though. God the samurai knew what they were doing
>>280932809God I'm gonna miss this cast
>>280933095Everyone's joining the daily
>>280933128Didn't the chronicle genderswap everyone to being back to our understanding of history?
>>280933231Imagine if Kuroki the First could've known his descendent would be shogun
Alas, we were already told about Yoshinobu
>>280933358This fucking guy
Can't believe how much I've come to like him
>>280933981>>280934005Well
The shogunate was nice while it lasted, kind of
>>280933669alright, too bad. Get outta my way then, I have a most important duty to fulfill.
>>280933721the shogunate has fallen...
>>280934362Legend says that the moment anybody in Japan feels a second's joy the very universe collapses
>>280934393Domo.
RIP Iemochi. And the Shogunate. Kuroki III should have fucked Kazu-no-miya. I would.
So, the only two male shoguns we've had so far have been complete shits
Surely the Tokugawa literally nobody likes will break that pattern and save the shogunate, right?
Right?
>>280934950>So, the only two male shoguns we've had so far have been complete shits>Ienari>complete shitEhhhh, he was a very flawed man, but his son and Yoshinobu are both far worse. It's unfair to put him in the same league as them.
>>280935015I think Ienari as a character in Oooku had to catch some strays from Ienari the character in conventional history
>>280935102Not really. The flaws that got Ooku!Ienari flak, at least around here, aren't his historical ones. People don't dislike him for having mountains of children and nearly bankrupting the shogunate. They dislike him for not standing up to his mother, the fallout from him finding out his wife only pretended to be mad, and him making Ieyoshi his heir.
>>280935464That deathbed convo where he was like, "history will consider me a profligate fool, all according to keikaku" made me think he was supposed to be basically imitating his wife pretending to be retarded
>>280933358nobody thought of him because he's ugly.
>>280933857tom cruise is running around there somewhere?
>>280935671I hadn't thought about it like that, but it would make sense and be cute. For me it seemed like he felt he didn't deserve to be praised by future generations. He knew he messed up bad, and the one thing he did right was never supposed to have happened according to history. The official record hides his most shameful flaws but also his accomplishments, so nobody sees him as better than he really was.
>>280936766Yeah it takes away that his keikaku is about hiding the red pox vaccine drive that doesn't really make that much sense to hide apart from the manga has to do it to be able to pull off being secret history
>>280936421That's a good bit later
And it's Satsuma getting their own Tokugawa treatment, except significantly more violently than the Boshin War.
>>280934024The official history did, but Chronicle of a Dying Day is the hidden, true history. Which means it's gonna get burned before this is over.
>>280939775Pick one character in this series to get a fumo
>>280934116He's right. Both of her mother's children were disabled, who knows what could go wrong with her pregnancy.
