Awesome to see an Asian-themed city. So much more work to do with given the limited selection- and you made it look awesome. The temple looks incredible. I love seeing people make custom large buildings as they are much more realistic looking. So incredible for you to be able to tell a story (possibly a short one from how this part ended :P) using sc4.

 

I'll be watching this for sure. Well done!

But other than that, this was a really entartaining update, definitely like watching a movie or TV series. Even feels like were going back in time :) + The detailing on the towns and villages are just so immense, given the lack of asian-themed content and such. Nice going with the photo-editing to, it's really convincing... waiting eagerly for the next part, and my character's involvment :p

"Fuurin Kazan"!!!  Kansuke!...Hime-sama!...Oyakata-sama!
 
Now, I can't wait to see if rock star Gackt shows up as Nagao Kagetora/Count Dracula!  The only thing better than the long-haired Bishamonten's Divine Moment of Awesome in the show was his Divine Moment of Parody.
 
Even better, your flaming city made me think of old Kyoto burning during yet another power struggle to control the throne.  How many times have they repeatedly torched that picturesque city?
 
NMUSpidey as the Emperor!  I wonder if he will be a kookily scheming, crazy mastermind of scene-chewing ham like the Ex-Emperor Go-Shirakawa was in "Yoshitsune."  All that poisonous lead in the lacquer ware and teeth-blackening powder...

Omigosh...I may never be able to watch "Fuurin Kazan" with a straight face ever again...but, we now have Shikibu to bring back the serious epicness.

P H E N O M E N A L! Not only the story is entertaining, each aspect -- the presentation, the scene, the details and the editing are wonderfully made.

Very nice. I always seem to forget to comment, so here's one now...

 

Looking forward to where the story goes from here. That's also some very nice photo-editing. Wonderfully moody, even on the non-flame-filled pictures.

@TekindusT:  Amusingly, taiga dramas like "Fuurin Kazan" are pretty much "Games of Thrones" with Sengoku period samurai, and in the twists and turns of historical drama, it will be a seemingly minor side-character who ultimately becomes Shogun.  I had to look up the real biographies of the characters portrayed, and, well, we can all easily guess what eventually must tragically happen to most samurai in the Warring States Era when collecting enemy heads and committing seppuku was hip and popular.
 
We perhaps might yet see in Shikibu a minor and lanky teenager so far kept as a family political hostage to a secondary clan unexpectedly rise to Supreme Power.  Then again, the entire defeated Honda clan might, like the Hojo, all commit mass seppuku in the burning temple as their fortress city is overrun.  Dun-dun-dun...  Or even, like the young Takamaru of "Shogun's Ninja," the young Tadatomo might escape with his clan's heirloom sword by boat to China, where he learns from the Chinese masters kung fu and '70s hairstyles, allowing him years later to return to funkytown Nippon as a buff and pumped Japan Action Team guerilla warrior ready to shirtlessly reclaim his family heritage and flex his karate-toned muscles to the tune of '70s disco porn music.  ...Okay, perhaps I have watched just a little too much of this stuff...
 
But, hopefully, like the 50+ episodes of taiga dramas, we can look forward to 50+ journal entries of Okaiken!
