Still love the fact that Tokugawa Yoshinobu, who got overthrown in the Boshin war, managed to outlive all of the Meiji triumvirate, Sakamoto Ryoma and even emperor Meiji himself.
Saigo Takamori is truly a tragic figure. A war hero who won the throne for the emperor, just so that the very same regime to toss him aside and kill him.
Good stuff! Like the channel. Info is awesome especially and level of depth, however you might want to run some words through a pronunciation check - especially the central terms of the era. As you progress you might want to memorize try and memorize the script and change the background notes to cues rather than reading lines as it might help your pronunciation as well - but it would be more work definitely. Only one I feel like I need to point out for you is Meiji is pronounced like may-gee. I also have pronunciation issues so sorry if this all seems harsh lol
Id definitely agree, it broke my immersion quite a bit, mostly noun pronunciations. To give credit it was here and there. Some examples : Sino is Sai-no vs see-no. AF Bauduin is bode-wan (flat a) not bodon
Hi, how are you? I have a suggestion: can you do a documentary based on the boxer rebellion 1899-1902? The reason is because if the nations back then understand their brotherhood amongst each other and be cooperative to decrease tensions, the Great War (World War I), World War II, and even the Cold War would never happen. Of course, that doesn’t happen, but it is something to contemplate about.
I have an episode on the Boxer Rebellion on this channel, but its quite limited in scope. For Kings and Generals podcast "the fall and rise of China" I covered it in depth over quite a few episodes.
@@ThePacificWarChannel Ok, nice 👍🏼. Oh, by the way, since you’re part of the kings and generals team, would you seriously consider doing the Great War (world war 1) series for the kings and generals channel? Because July 28 of this year would be 110 years since the war began. While, yes, there’s the Great War channel coverage with Indy Neidel, but that was 10 years ago. It’s still good, but needs to be updated and refreshed since things changed a lot today. There’s also Jesse Alexander’s 30 minute documentaries as well, but I would like some variety for WW1 coverage just to keep things familiar while providing something new. That’s why I want Kings and Generals to do this series in whatever format you as a team decided. What do you think?
@@josephsarra4320 Hmmm, its interesting you mention this. I do two podcasts for them, the Pacific war week by week, and the fall and rise of China. The Chinese podcast will last until I reach 1949 (I am currently in the late 1920s). Could very well do a podcast on WW1 after. Would be a collosal one haha. I am a huge fan of Dan Carlin's series on WW1.

Gawd I love your channel so this is why Japan has maintained its traditional identity so well

sometimes learning to give up, is the best choice in life.
