Toranaga kind of forgot about the Iron Fleet.

The book is 'Shogun' by James Clavell. He has some other books, but that is the one that Shogun the TV show is based on. I've read the novel, I dunno, 6 or 8 times, and so far the series is very close to the book. Moreso than any recent adaptation of anything I can think of. And it's just this one series, so it'll presumably end at the same place the book does. They are zipping through - this last episode ended at around page 434 in my copy out of the total 1152 pages. I suppose your decision on reading the book is going to depend on how fast of a reader you are (it's a pretty long book), and if you'd rather finish the show or book first.

Nice Tuckpointing! posted:The official podcast mentions that they changed other names, because Clavell didn't run this poo poo by a feudal Japan expert (they were more polite in how they said that). So Fujiko became Fuji, Kasigi Yabu became Kashigi Yabushige, and the village name was changed from Anjiro to Ajiro. I'd been wondering about those name changes... thought I was losing my mind at first, then thought, 'oh they're changing her name to Fuji to be like the mountain or some bullshit'. That's amazing that they're actually, I dunno, fixing things.
