[Dropped] Genji Monogatari Sennenki: Cultural Barrier


As I thought earlier, this series is just way too deep into the Japanese history that it doesn't matter how hard I try, I just couldn't get into it. The cultural barrier is something that is very difficult to pass, especially when everything I know about the society is learned through watching animes (lol).

I'm not going to pretend that I understand it. Therefore it is pointless to keep spending my time on it. Because of this exact reason, I'm not going to rate this anime either. I'll just leave that to the "experts".

One thing I did learn, from the few episodes I've watched, is that incest not only big part of modern Japanese culture, it also has a very long history :-)
