    "Japan has isolated itself from the rest of the world for over 200 years, until the Americans came and said, "you're gonna trade with us and you're gonna like it"

    Great English subtitles, I absolute adored them, they were enriching and empowering. I mean, so powerfully written and so accurately composed. Brillinat.

    "The Country of a Samurai", It's been a long time since our country was called this. Samurai once daydreaming while looking into the Edo sky. Now, foreign ships come through

    Merchants might have been among the "lower classes" but many merchants were very wealthy and very influential with regards to government policies and politics in general. A key detail that you fail to mention.

    During the fall of the Samurai class in the late Edo period, breeding goldfish become a Samurais' second job for income. In fact, Samurai was the first goldfish keepers in Japan back in the 16th century. Ranchu, Ryukin, and Tosakin are the 3 signature breeds developed by Samurai
