The Kantō-Kansai thing always fascinates me LOL. Even the food shape, like if you ask for zenzai what you'd get it Kansai is completely different from the Kantō style. I do hear that the difference is not that strict these days, but still.

Great Taikō: Toyotomi Hideyoshi, whose centre of power is focused on Ōsaka. Pre-Tokugawa government are generally situated more in the Kansai area, with Kyoto as the old capital, but Hideyoshi specifically had his main castle in Ōsaka.

Traitor Ieyasu: Some people perceived that the way Tokugawa Ieyasu took over control and established the Tokugawa shogunate is unjust towards the Toyotomi family. It was said that Ieyasu's "tanuki" nickname was due to this, it wasn't a good nickname, it actually means "sneaky backstabber".

I had thought about making a TL note on that, but ended up not doing so because I found out during the volume that dealt with the WWII orphans that I have a real problem keeping things short when it deals with history (since it's my profession).

I relate. Not a professional historian, but I do a lot of independent research/reading on Pre-Tokugawa history.

I am admittedly a bit less versed on Japanese history outside of its post-WWII politics (my field is primarily American political history), but yeah. It can sometimes be a struggle for me, so I genuinely have tried to just not make any notes on the subject going forward unless I'm sure I can keep it succinct.
