Alecta's Shadow

The treaty you're thinking about is the Treaty of Tordesillas, and yes, Brazil fell on the Portuguese side of the demarcation line. You're doing great. This is not the kind of show where you pick everything automatically on the first watch - you're certainly doing a lot better than I was doing the first time I went through this show. Even on a third-time or fourth-time rewatch I keep picking up stuff I had missed previously. Thanks for the reaction, it's good to see you're having fun!

Having spent a good amount of time in Japan and speaking some Japanese, I especially love this show and am happy you’re watching it. As usual, it’s fun and impressive watching you puzzle it all together and track all the moving objects. (Same with your watching of Dune). And Torunaga is playing serious chess. Another great one. Thanks so much.

If you like historical fiction, you should definitely read the book. Part of why it's difficult is that it's not just that the politics are complicated, but they're super fluid--it's not just the audience trying to keep up, but the characters too.

Did you notice in the scene where Toranaga is interrogating Blackthorne, with Father Martin as translator, that they very subtly fade out the translation, so the scene just becomes a direct conversation between Blackthorne and Toranaga? I love little details like that!

Yeah, she (Mariko) is so pretty. My son liked Assassin's Creed.

"Sometimes there's no sense in being dumb unless you show it." I dunno if that's yours but I'm definitely gonna borrow that line.
