The red-lacquered armour is really cool, afterall Red got an image that symbolizes leadership, strength or passion. I just know that Sanadamaru's samurai army was nicknamed the 'red devils', as the hero Sakai Masato will even looks more powerful.
ReplyDeleteAlso, so the heroine is Nagasawa Masami? previously I thought it's Takeuchi Yuko when I saw her attend the press conference, so she won't appear much? I think it's admirable that she and sakai still could work together despite their past romance, or it's only a rumor??
I also think that the red armour looks really good on Sakai and wonder if I should start watching a Taiga again (never finished one before) because Sanadamaru looks really promising.
ReplyDeleteAs for your question on who is the female lead, it looks like Nagasawa's going to be the one since her character is described as Sanada's life partner. Kuroki Haru plays Sanada's first love who gives birth to his first child but it doesn't look like their relationship is to last till the end of the drama. Takeuchi is going to play the favourite concubine of Toyotomi Hideyoshi (Kohinata Fumio) and a close friend of Sanada so I don't think there is going to be anything romantic between them.
