タッキー義経様、大変お疲れ様でした!!
*WAILS*
I still remember the day when Yoshitsune first aired. Me and Sylvia assembled at Loracyn's house and screamed the house down even though Takki only appeared in the first 3 minutes of that epi. Natsukashiii~~ And all of a sudden, Yoshitsune has come to an end. I am still alive, yes. But my heart is half-dead. Had Takki not saved me with his kawai-sa during Shokura (which warrants another entry), it will be dead-dead. Yoshitsune really really died, didn't he? T-T
I was sitting up so straight on my bed when the final episiode finally started. So tense!! So scared!! Seeing how Yasuhira finally broke down and gave in to Yoritomo's request, how Kunihira left Hiraizumi in disappointment, how Tadahira got assasinated by his own brother, how Yoshitsune realised he has been betrayed. 6 men versus Yasuhira's huge army. The final battle, how the kerai fell one by one. First Yoshihisa, then Kisanta, Jiro and finally Saburo, who smiled at Yoshitsune as he fell. Mouuuuu~~~~~~~ *cries* My eyes are tearing as i am typing.... KANASHII SUGI!!!!!! And then finally, Benkei and Yoshitsune.
When Yoshitsune thanked Benkei for following him.
*cries*
When Yoshitsune pulled out his dagger, MY HEART WAS BEATING SO FAST!!! I think I wasn't even breathing!! @_@!!!!
IYAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*CRIES*
The horse thing shocked me a bit, but IT WAS SO SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GAWD!!!! TAKKI AND YOSHITSUNE TOTALLY MERGED INTO ONE BEING HERE!!!! Staring into Yoshitsune's eyes, you can ONLY clutch at your chest. Serious. His expression is SO CONVINCING!!! We all know Yoshitsune is going to die, but I still wished against wish that he will survive. After he died, I think I felt exactly like Utsubo. Empty.
The show didn't exactly end like in the mook (and maybe also, the novel). In the mook, Otoku told Shizuka and Utsubo to go to Kurama if they want to find Yoshitsune. But in the drama, only Utsubo went. In history, I think Yoshitsune didn't die "alone". His wife and children were with him. So he had to kill them first before killing himself. Well, thank god he didn't have any children with Moe! NHK decides to spare us the mental torture. I don't think I can survive so many deaths in one episode. x_x
本当に終わったのか??*泣*
Just feels very empty. Those anti-social Sundays are gone. No more Yoshitsune to look forward to, except during Takizawa Enbujo, which is better than nothing really.
I am so glad that they gave the role of Yoshitsune to Takki. I think he did a SUPERB job as much as NHK allowed him. Now I totally equate Takki to Yoshitsune. The kanji 「義経」 catches my eyes when I scan through magazines just like the kanji 「滝」. He truly brought the character to life and made people really love this man. Though we have NO IDEA how he really looked like (although existing painting and figurines are chotto...), we now all like to believe that he really was as utsukushii as Takki. Both in figure and in heart. Cannot really imagine another person playing this role anymore. Takki has made it his. Like how nobody will want to film another Titanic movie after James Cameron, nor Lord of the Rings after Peter Jackson kinda feeling. Hontouni, subarashii desu. And oh, I suddenly remember another thing. How glad I am that they never gave Yoshitsune a moustache even at the end. THANK GOD!! Haa~
でもね、タッキー、本当に本当に、お疲れ様でした。
義経を演じるのができて、本当によかったと思います。
やっぱり、義経役がタッキーしかできないです。
辛い時もあったけど、いろんなものも得たって聞いたら、うれしいです。
この作品にあえて、一番幸いなことだと思います。
一年中、すごぉ~く、すごぉ~く感動させてくれて、ありがとうございました。
皆のため、そして自分のため、頑張ってて、真に、ありがとうございます!!
これからも、殿を見守ってさしあげると存じまする。
To those who have yet to see this episode, remember to prepare the tissue and oxygen tanks!!
I think when we go to Hiraizumi, we're going to bawl again.
YOSHITSUNE-SAMA!!! OKAERI NI NASARE!!! T-T
We so need to go find out how to go that Yoshitsune shrine...
