TV Jidaigeki

[Michael McCaskey]

Dear Alex,

The Japanese script did unfortunately come up as mojibake on my monitor, as I guess some stuff I send out in Japanese script may do for others as well. I'm very interested in Jidaigeki, and in this particular topic. Do you by any chance have a URL leading to some of Kasuga Taiichi's other work? I guess "Kasuga" wd. be the same as in the Kasuga Shrine, but I may well be wrong. There are too many "Taiichi" possibilities to guess.

Any additional leads you might be able to provide re this very interesting specific topic wd. be very greatly appreciated.

With Best Wishes and Thanks,

Michael McCaskey
