I told you there were a few posts…
Anyway, did any of you watched Ryomaden last season? I did try to watch it at the beginning but wasn’t that into it, so it was really troublesome to gather the energy to find a subtitled version of it. Plus, there weren’t any small files, and I didn’t feel like download HD versions.
So I watched on TV with no subs.
Until the very last episode that Yu was on… and then till the very last of the year.
I remember that when I saw the preview of episode 44 with Yu’s character Omoto saying goodbye, I thought to myself — well, what bad number of episode to leave the show xD and it ended up being her 13th guest appearance — pretty sure about that.
Anyway, for those who didn’t watch the show — Yu played Omoto, a geisha who’s a closeted Christian (oh, the irony!). She plays the shamisen, does some traditional dancing and performing, and has some non-explored sexual tension with Ryoma. She was good in it, but I understand that Taiga dramas are a long-term commitment.
Here’s the capture of the interview with photos for those of you who won’t touch a Taiga with a stick xD
But, you can still visit the NHK Ryomaden site for it.
Any translation takers?
I skimmed through it and… just got some talk about the character being mysterious and a closeted Christian. And her last phrase about England and tea time. LOL Gotta admit I laughed at that. xD
