I hate that I know enough about Heian era fashion to be deeply annoyed at almost every aspect of this character design. The kind of nerd I was 20+ years ago

here enjoy minamoto no yoshitsune. that is a hard 30

I didn’t need to see this to know she was an OL. You can tell from reading the Tale of Genji. IMO.

real ones have always known

Her introducing herself as the author of Genji Monogatari and saying you should read it was so bizarre I kinda loved it

i really wish they leaned into the history shit more its so strange how like. you could play this game as a westener and not really understand that almost everyone in the game is a Real Guy of some kind

And weirdly tied into the genji and heike but taking place hundreds of years later. I'm torn between they assumed it was uninteresting to a global audience or they were focused on a domestic one that would already be at least somewhat aware of what they were doing
