Should I be ashamed that the only reason I know who Antoku is and why this story would be interesting is because I've read Usagi Yojimbo? Laughing

I love this sort of historical stuff. Seems rather interesting, it's definitely on my "to see" list.

Going beyond legend indeed, I remember watching Yoshitsune and saw the episode where he supposedly drowned. They had come up with another way for him to escape, saying that he had a kagemusha.

Well said! Very Happy

I look forward to see this someday soon. Stories like these and the origins of Kamikaze and so on really are fascinating, IMO.
