I love the look on heiji shindo's face when Fowler is telling him his backstory. He is just realizing the true depth of Fowler's brutality.

i love how into this show you have become :)

The only kinda challenging detail is that Seki tells Akemi that he was the one who arranged the match to Takayoshi Itoh, a match her father Tokunobu is using to ascend to Shogun… that would mean 1) Seki lied about proposing the arrangement, maybe to make it more appealing to Akemi; 2) Seki was kept ignorant of her father’s plans to use the marriage to subplant the Itoh family; or 3) Seki was involved in all of it and really believed it was a good option to enable the coup It is just a minor vagueness to a side character, but bugs me

i don't pay close attention to the voice credits. had no idea ming na wen played lady kaji. the talent for this show is stacked! on top of the great art and writing.
