One-stop English news resource for the lovely Charmaine Sheh 佘诗曼. Occasionally, I'll post about C-Ent and K-Ent as well.
When was this released? Because if later than WAB definitely WAB created the harem in the palace wave.
ReplyDeleteOne consolation for WAB; men there handsomer. Can't imagine the japs with those half shaven and yet bundled up hair. Has my vote as the worst hairstyle, but Qing style is second place.
No, Ooku was earlier than WAB but not much ppl heard of it. When it was aired in HK, it got the lowest rating of the year.
ReplyDeleteHaha, you're right about the hairstyle. Men have have the hair while women's was very long and bunched up.
p.s. Wonder if the women walked so slow because of the heavy layers of costumes... :P
Ooku chapter 1 is very interesting! I had watched the first series of Ooku which has another title "Ooku chapter 2".
ReplyDeletePersonally i preferred Ooku chap1's storyline. Their speech was rather formal compared to modern japanese.
do u by any chance a malaysian or what?i realy like oman sama for her kindness and ican c that the king (i don't know the terms in japan)is very much in love with oman and oman is very much in love with the king.by the way i DAISKI the ost very much.
ReplyDeleteYes, I am a Malaysian.
ReplyDeleteOman was a good character. She is nice and not arrogant, but it's just that I dislike her 'higher than thou attitude'.
I just watched tonight's episode and I really start to pity Iemitsu (shogun) instead.
