Amazingly done
I’ve always loved the Koei games and from that somewhat knew the story but hearing about the difficulty of reading the actual book translated was a daunting task. This podcast does a great job of turning the book into an understandable and enjoyable story, told accurately but with enough of the narrators own personality to bring it to life. The website has great maps and charts that I love to review before and after each episode. It’s really just extremely well done. And so far there are no ads which is crazy to think of in today’s marketplace. I feel like I need to donate money for all of his hard work.
