sorry to be late, No idea why I did not get the notification. I will try to keep my gushing for this show to a minimum, as hard as that will be. For starters, this show was translated multiple times. Written in English, then sent to Japan to be translated. Then given to a specialist in ancient Japanese to be corrected for period correct speech patterns. (think Shakespear) So the actors are speaking in that dialect. Then translated back for English subtitles.
