@Bear @Jigsaw9 @Himeaimichu hey guys, where do you watch your taiga dramas or asian tv shows/movies in general? i'm most interested on the japanese ones at the moment.So far i've found a site called " newasiantv.tv " , which is pretty good there's LOADS of stuff there,but the ones about Yoshitsune and Takeda Shingen have no english sub,so perhaps you guys have a source that i'm still not aware of. i'm also looking foward the meiko kaiji movies or any old school stuff from the same genre,so if you guys are into it as well,pls link me,even youtube channels can serve well.

I don't watch regular dramas, but I'm very much into old Japanese cinema. Especially all forms of exploitation cinema, chambara and horror. Several of my all time actors are Japanese actors whow ere active in the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's. Meiko Kaiji, Sonny Chiba, Tomisaburo Wakayama, Shintaro Katsu, Toshiro Mifune, Reiko Ike and more.
But regular dramas I am not too keen on.
Highly recommend checking out more or less everything with Meiko Kaiji, including her music. But Blind Woman's Curse, Stray Cat Rock franchise, The Sasori franchise, The Gincho series, Lady Snowblood I & II, Yakuza Graveyard, Battles Without Honor and Humanity franchise (cast is a bit random, but thoughout you'll see Meiko Kaiji, Sonny Chiba, Tomisaburo Wakayama and Reiko Ike among others).
So yeah, I like old Japanese cinema. And as far as all types of exploitation, chambara (and samurai movies in general) and horror goes, I am a huge nerd.

yea,that's exactly what i've been looking for. meiko kaiji's stuff is the first one i'm getting into right now. just visited the rarelust site and it looks vast,that was a nice recommendation
the historical dramas are good. i'm watching right now Dokuganryu Masamune (1987 / 50 episodes) and i highly recommend it.
