This is part 2 of a historical comedy whose episodes are under 8 minutes. It continues with situations from the Sengoku era. As in season 1 and being a westerner, I did not get the “in jokes” in this series. I suppose the same would be said if Japanese people watched a comedy about George Washington or any of the Presidents of US history. I would not expect them to get it either. The characters are historical figures portrait-ed as animals in traditional Japanese ink painting style (which I like), acting in the backdrop of historical events & a few every day life situations of the time. I can only recommend it if you are familiar with Japanese Sengoku era history, otherwise you may not get the humor.
