Oo-Oku

I just finished watching Oo-Oku ＜大奥＞ on crunchyroll... Wah! I really like this movie leh... I think if u all free should go and watch also. 4 parts to it and about 2 hours long lah... VERY GOOD!! And there is subtitles so u all can understand. The translation is not full though, as in, does not reflect the nuances of the language very well...



Main character is Nakayama Yukie who acts as Ejima, the Mistress of the Palace. She is the highest ranking maid beside Gekkoin, the mother of the current Shogun (who is also very cute, 5 years old only!). Then got all the POISONOUS ppl who are jealous of her and try to harm her. But Ejima is the loyal and smart maid beside her who will risk her life to protect her mistress if need be...



The kimono collection inside is like WAH!!! But i tell u, they must have suffered while filming... Coz the full set of kimono is laready so heavy PLUS they had to put on tt wig...



I took a picture at the Corridor of Bells when i went to visit Kyoto with Aya but seeing it again in the movie was still overwhelming.
