Design-wise, Bacanno looks a heckuva lot better than Horizon. Besides, I have faith that the production staff can pull through!

I'm more curious as to why all of that went wrong, executive meddling or something. It's a huge misstep from Kobayashi Tsuneo - Emma was a work of love with incredible attention to detail (something that Ikoku can learn from!), and Kurokami wasn't even in the same ballpark.

With the skills I have, we're going to encounter several "historical figures". There's people from the time of Oda Nobunaga, Pope Innocentius X, King Philip II of Spain, King Rudolf II of the Holy Roman Empire, Queen Elizabeth I of England, King Louis XIV of France, etc., etc.
