Once you understand the pacing and that this about subterfuge and strategy, then this is a truly wonderful series.
As mannered and subtle as the Japanese aristocracy it is portraying.
The standout is Anna Sawai, who is magical as Lady Mariko.
She has a porcelain-like beauty, incredibly beguiling, tough, intelligent and heartbreaking in her ongoing distress.
Her story arc is so powerful
And a refreshing and intelligent climax, forgoing the usual, exhaustingly overdone massive battle.
I'm almost hoping they don't make a Part 2 because it's hard to believe it could be as good
