I was reminded of it as I was perusing       my notes and decided to see if new chapters had been released.               I got to read two chapters that were new to me and       so I posted about it. It just seems so good to me. The Japanese       books were sold locally by Kinokuniya in the manga shop and       I was fascinated but too poor at the time to buy anything.               The interaction with Nobunaga was quite powerfully       drawn and scripted. The tea party with Akechi Mitsuhide was       full of for-shadowing enough to suit Hato, I am sure.               bliss                             --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
