Masaki Okada (drive my car) appears and plays Rakugo player, a Japanese comic show player. His rival, Ikusaburo Yamazaki, who is a musical actor, is really good for listening the original tapes. They're both from Tokyo, and actually they have to speak the downtown accent, but the musical guy is much better for performing, and it really follows the story. He tries also good as well, but the muscle player's ears defeated way up. Accents are the issue in this story, and also the time looping is used, that is also weak for Japanese skills. If I remove these problems, the story is guaranteed at a certain level as it is an awarded comic: I mean, Japanese ones could be still fishy for the quality, but it is still much better to non-awarded ones.
The critic says the drama omitted the historical considerations, but I like the drama to the comics and the animations, so no choice.
The accents are important for this story, but this could be successful for the foreign runs, as the story is good, and as the drama it got to a certain levels, and recently few good drama appears in Netflix, so few rivals.
You know, few Tokyo locals can speak this accent but these traditional players, so people wouldn't mind nowadays, like Bostonians. But the Rakugo stories, that is even few knows the stories, but it contains a lot, the famous stories are almost all included. This is a good show.
It is fun to listen to the real Tokyo accents by locally born actors and the younger ones include the modern accents that is caused by northern Kanto accents that real locals feel a bit offensive attitude from them. We really hardly ever heard anymore on the real accent, so the outsiders takes these accents from the sounds only so the language really changes.
