I'm really adoring "The Heike Story", but one thing that's vexing me is that every episode has a little interlude of an actual biwa-accompanied recitation relevant to the episode's events from the Heike Monogatari, but there are no subtitles for JUST THAT ONE PART and I can't follow the (rather medieval) Japanese well enough.
This is a terrific anime, really well-done.
@mcfate I bought his(?) books 3 and 4 of Musashi at the same time but haven't collected the rest yet
My copy of "Musashi" is just one gigantic volume.

Yoshikawa is good fictionalizer. I've got his books on Miyamoto Musashi and Taira no Masakado in the stack.
I finished the Penguin translation of "The Tale of the Heike" a month or two ago.
