Glad some indian history is getting light but i wish this was historically accurate, even atleast to the motivations or beliefs of Kautilya, but I set myself up for disappointment. Even the translation set up for the sanskrit words is in favour of a western pov than the indic culture in itself. Aryan = white people is literally Nazi propoganda and recently in Canadian Parliament was an appeal made to distinguish the Hindu Swastika from the Nazi Hooked Cross. Again the point is to be faithful to the culture of the story.

Kautilya himself was of a lofty varna and is proud to be so. In his own manifesto, the Arthashastra, he in depth writes the role of the different varna in Indic society. Infact he asserts the need to maintain varna purity to avoid confusion and ultimately end of the world.

Regardless of what the author's or readers social beliefs are, fictional literature is way more interesting when the original intentions of the protagonist are kept in touch with their character which makes the history around them more captivating. The same is true for Caesar and Bonaparte, and Kautilya and Chandragupta are no doubt equal to their caliber and even beyond since their empire held itself even after their death.

The series is only very recent. I wish the author can atleast acknowledge this and recorrect his approach before it expands into 150+ chapters.

Japanese authors seldom study in detail of the history of foreign countries. For them, anything can be added to the story as fiction if it "closely resembles" the detail, even if is complete dog-shit.
