Ooku


I recently bought Ooku: The inner chambers volume 1. I kinda love it. It's about an alternative Edo-era where the male population of Japan is scarce, and the society becomes matriarchal. Traditional male jobs are taken by women, including shogun. Within the shogun's castle, thousands of men toil behind the scenes, serving not only as administrators, but as a harem. When a new shogun takes over 80 years after the first infected boy dies, the monetary wastefulness of the ooku is shed in an effort to "rerelease" these highly desired men back into the general population. At volume's end, the shogun is determined to learn how the epidemic came to pass and the subsequent elevation of women in Japan.

Ooku is being developed into a live action film, due in September. It will star Kazunari Ninomiya <3
In fact, I have a promo of the movie!

Looks interesting, right?

Speaking of interesting, I have also been playing Hotel Dusk. I know it's old, but old games are just the right price for me now. (>_<")

If you have any game recommendations, shoot me a comment!
