Episode 149: It May or May Not Be a Man's World
Listen now
Description
This week is a single topic for once, we're talking all things Ooku The Inner Chambers. This is a new title coming to us in Netflix based pretty faithfully on the popular manga by the same name. It's a historical drama but with a pretty major caveat that really asks a lot of great questions. With 10 episodes covering roughly half the manga's story we've got a solid look at what if gender roles were reversed in feudal Japan. It's a really interesting idea that's presented pretty beautifully, so we're giving you our honest opinions on the series as a whole, things we found most effective and maybe a couple of things we were unsure about as well. If you're looking for your next historical drama, this episode might be able to point you in the right direction.  Power Rankings live @tjapod on instagram
